The Work Couch: Navigating trauma in the legal world (Part 2), with Rebecca Norris and Camilla Wells: Implementing a trauma-informed work culture

Welcome to The Work Couch, the podcast where we discuss all things employment.

To explore this year's Mental Health Awareness Week theme of community, host Ellie Gelder is joined once again by Rebecca Norris and Camilla Wells, co-founders of Trauma Informed Law, an organisation which offers specialist support for trauma, burnout and overwhelm in the legal sector.

In the second part of this series, we discuss:

• Identifying the less obvious signs of trauma;
• How to foster effective psychological safety;
• Key dos and don'ts when supporting a person affected by trauma;
• Commercial benefits of being a trauma-informed business; and
• The role of leadership in embedding a trauma-informed work culture.

To access further support on mental health, you may wish to visit the Samaritans, Mind, or Rethink. Or you can use the text service from Shout on 85258.
