Trauma Informed Trainings/Presentations & Program Development

Looking to bring meaningful, trauma-informed mental health education into your workplace or organization? Through Brave Hearts | Wise Minds, Coaching & Consulting, we offer dynamic presentations that educate, empower, and inspire—tailored to the unique needs of your team.

Whether you're an educator, corporate leader, public service agency, or healthcare professional, our presentations are designed to meet your audience where they are—with real talk, clinical insight, and actionable strategies.

Why Trauma-Informed Matters

Becoming trauma-informed isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a foundational shift that helps teams work more effectively, reduce harm, and build cultures of resilience. When professionals understand how trauma shows up in behavior, relationships, and performance, they can:

  • De-escalate crisis more effectively

  • Reduce re-traumatization

  • Foster trust and emotional safety

  • Improve team morale and client outcomes

  • Promote staff retention and reduce burnout

Whether you’re in public service, education, healthcare, or corporate leadership—being trauma-informed helps you show up stronger, wiser, and with more compassion.

For First Responders & Frontline Professionals

From the firehouse to the ER, from patrol cars to 911 dispatch—those on the front lines often carry invisible wounds. We offer trauma-informed presentations specifically for:

  • Firefighters

  • Law enforcement officers

  • Paramedics & EMTs

  • Nurses, ER staff, and healthcare professionals

  • Dispatchers and frontline crisis responders

Topics include:

  • Recognizing vicarious trauma and cumulative stress

  • Nervous system regulation in high-stress environments

  • Burnout, hypervigilance, and emotional shutdown

  • Peer support strategies and breaking stigma

  • Building trauma-resilient public safety teams

We speak the language of high-stakes roles—offering real tools without judgment.

Mental Health First Aid / Mental Health 101

Not a therapist? That’s okay. You can still be a first responder for mental health in your community, workplace, or classroom. This foundational presentation is perfect for teams who want to better understand and respond to mental health needs—without crossing into clinical territory.

Participants will learn how to:

  • Recognize signs of anxiety, depression, and trauma

  • Approach someone in emotional distress

  • Respond with empathy—not shame or silence

  • Set boundaries and know when to refer for support

  • Reduce stigma through education and awareness

This is a great starting point for schools, HR teams, nonprofit orgs, and anyone ready to build a more compassionate, informed environment.
