In this week’s episode of TRIBE Talk, we take a clear, trauma-informed look at behaviour therapy—what it is, what it isn’t, and how it can meaningfully support children with trauma histories. We explore how modern behaviour therapy has evolved integrating compassion, developmental understanding, and evidence-based psychological approaches.

Through a practical and balanced lens, this episode positions behaviour therapy as a flexible, child-centred toolkit that can be tailored to meet the complex needs of children impacted by trauma—supporting emotional regulation, skill development, and long-term resilience when applied thoughtfully and ethically.

Episode Highlights:
The different types of behaviour therapy and how they differ
How behaviour therapy supports children with trauma histories
The role of ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) in values-led, flexible support
Where CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) fits
The importance of early intervention for long-term outcomes
Using behaviour therapy in a trauma-informed, relationship-based way

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we examine the post-Christmas return to routine through a trauma-informed lens, exploring why transitions after the holidays can trigger heightened emotions, anxiety, and behavioural challenges for children with trauma histories. We unpack how disruption to structure, sleep, and expectations can activate stress responses rather than defiance.

Using insights from behavioural science and trauma-informed practice, this episode shares practical strategies to rebuild predictability, support regulation, and ease children back into everyday routines with compassion and confidence—helping adults set children up for stability rather than struggle in the weeks ahead.

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore emotional regulation for children with trauma histories, focusing on why big emotions escalate quickly and why traditional behaviour strategies often fall short. We unpack how trauma impacts the developing nervous system, reframing emotional regulation as a developmental skill rather than a behaviour problem.

Grounded in trauma-informed care, behavioural science, and attachment-focused practice, this episode offers practical, real-world strategies to support co-regulation, reduce overwhelm, and build emotional safety over time—helping adults move from reactive responses to confident, proactive support.
