I started working with Dr Karen Treisman from Safe Hands Thinking Minds back in 2018 – we had a chat one Sunday afternoon and it launched a wonderful working relationship that has resulted in dozens of worksheets and pages of learning materials.
Karen is quite simply an amazing woman with a huge heart, and a genuine desire to help those in need. I find her so inspiring and it’s been a pleasure and privilege to work with her.
Karen has written numerous books and created various products for those working with children, and she recently turned her attention to the organisations supporting them – bringing all her knowledge of Trauma Informed organisations together in her awesome two volume magnus opus A Treasure Box for Creating Trauma-Informed Organisations. It’s literally squished full of wisdom, experience and colourful resources, (some of which I illustrated).
Karen’s book is a wonderful resource for any organisation working towards becoming trauma informed.
The Treasure Box book is packed full of valuable resources from bestselling and award-winning author, trainer, organizational consultant, and Clinical Psychologist Dr. Karen Treisman, and will show you how to weave a deep understanding of trauma and adversity into the daily practice and the whole fabric of your organization.
Copies can be purchased from Karen’s publishers and from Amazon
I’ve worked with a number of organisations on this journey, and had the pleasure of graphic recording Karen’s training a few times. You can see a couple of these on the NHS Wales Health Collaborative website.
