    Panel Discussion: Towards a trauma-informed listening

    4:45 PM

    The 13th ESTSS Conference takes place in Bologna, Italy from June 6-9, 2013. The panel “Towards a trauma-informed listening: strategies for journalists and clinicians across different domains” will discuss three different understandings of what might constitute  good listening.

     

    Good listening is an essential skill for both journalists and clinicians, especially those working with trauma survivors. But what do we mean by good, trauma-informed listening? Do different modes of listening have different implications for the accuracy of the interview or assessment and for the wellbeing of the person being listened to? How does power need to be understood in trauma-informed listening strategies?

    Panelists: 

    Gavin Rees - Director, Dart Centre Europe, London, United Kingdom
