In addition to the common sleep issues any child can have, children who have experienced trauma often have trauma-related issues, like night terrors, insomnia, and trauma triggers.
This webinar builds on the universal trainings Parents Toolshop® offers on "Halting Bedtime Hassles," to address sleep issues that are specifically related to trauma. This webinar explains:
- How trauma affects the body and sleep cycles,
- Trauma-related sleep issues,
- Respectful effective trauma-informed responses to them.
It may take longer for children with trauma to rewire their biological sleep cycles, but they, too, can learn that going to bed is safe, going to sleep isn’t scary, and getting a good night’s rest helps everyone feel better, especially them!
