Note sull'episodio

In this special episode of The School Collective Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Michael Gomez, a nationally recognized trauma expert and co-founder of the NCTSN Trauma and IDD Workgroup. Dr. Gomez shares his journey into clinical child psychology, shedding light on trauma as a toxin and how schools can better support students dealing with its effects.

We dive into critical topics such as trauma screening, the impact of racial socialization, the challenges of differentiating between autism and trauma, and the often-overlooked fawn response. Dr. Gomez also discusses secondary trauma and burnout among educators, offering practical strategies for resilience. Plus, we wrap up with some fun rapid-fire questions, including his surprising dislike of guacamole!
