Healing Childhood Trauma

Children exposed to early trauma - such as abuse or family violence -  are 3.6 times more likely to have a mental health or substance use disorder, and are up to 7 times more likely to have both, compared to those without trauma.*

The impact on the formative years and development of these children can be profound, and it takes relationships with safe, predictable carers and ongoing therapy to help them recover. 

Berry Street provides this through Take Two, its therapeutic service for children. To learn about the incredible work being done to help kids heal, join podcast host Richelle Hunt as she talks to the Director of Take Two, Dr  Allison Cox, and Clinical Team Leader at Take Two, Bodhi Priti.
