Considering Trauma in Treatment

In this episode, Rachel Archambault, also known as the PTSD SLP, joins me for an in-depth discussion on Trauma-Informed Care and the vital role speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play in supporting clients exposed to trauma. Emphasizing the importance of cultural humility and collaborative care, we share professional insights and highlight self-reflection as a crucial element of effective care for individuals and communities affected by trauma. Rachel Archambault, MA CCC-SLP is an SLP Program Specialist for Broward County Public Schools. After experiencing a nationally publicized traumatic experience at her workplace, she looked for ways to help work with students (and herself) after trauma. She found trauma-informed care and has been presenting nationally to SLPs as well as other healthcare providers and educators on how Trauma-Informed Care can be used in their setting.
