OTSH 35: Occupational Therapy and Trauma-Informed Care in Schools Feat. Colleen Cameron Whiting, MS, OTR/L

In this episode, Jayson interviews fellow school-based occupational therapist, Colleen Cameron Whiting. Colleen has had two articles published (see show notes) on providing trauma-informed care (TIC) in the school and today she brings to the podcast a model about how school-based OTs can work with other educators to creating an environment in which students feel safe and welcomed. We also dive into what exactly trauma is, how some trauma can have adverse effects on the developing brain, and what occupational therapy using a TIC model looks like.
