According to the American Psychological Association, trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships and physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. While these feelings are normal to a traumatic event, some people have difficulty moving on with their lives.
These types of struggles are regularly faced in classrooms, and educators should be equipped with the tools to respond to them in a sustainable and effective way, said Educational Psychologist Emily Santiago. Luckily, she said, Cal State East Bay’s new Trauma Informed Specialist Certificate Program will train leaders to address these issues, while pushing for agency, connection and empowerment.
