The Institute also provides trauma mental health consultation for professionals interested in developing their trauma competency. Specialized training and supervision are required before ethically engaging in counseling in any specialty area. Therefore, without formal trauma training to support competency-based clinical practice with this vulnerable population counselors are at risk of practicing outside the bounds of their clinical competency.<\/p>\n
Our consultants are skilled trauma-competent clinicians well-versed in trauma mental health theory and intervention. In addition, trauma professionals in training with The Institute for Trauma Competency practice in collaborative communities of fellow clinicians for support and opportunities for on-going learning and skill development.<\/p>\n
Trauma-competent practitioners are responsible for providing effective treatment, therefore, they must know the limits of their clinical competence and seek consultation when necessary.
