Trust Isn’t Built by Chance

What if the very systems designed to support students and staff are inadvertently causing harm?

In this compelling episode, we sit down with Rachel Archambault, M.A., CCC-SLP—also known as the PTSD SLP—a dedicated speech-language pathologist and trauma-informed care advocate. Rachel shares her personal journey and professional insights into how trauma-informed practices can transform educational environments.

We delve into the six pillars of trauma-informed care: safety, trustworthiness, peer support, collaboration, empowerment, and cultural, historical, and gender considerations.

Rachel emphasizes the importance of transparency in leadership, the power of offering choices to foster trust, and the necessity of understanding the ripple effects of trauma within school communities.

Whether you're an SLP, educator, administrator, or anyone invested in creating supportive educational spaces, this episode offers valuable perspectives on building stronger, more resilient teams through trauma-informed approaches.
