Dr. Julian Ford and Dr. Amanda Zelechoski speak with several child trauma experts to help understand, “what is trauma?” and how does it differ from everyday stress? We discuss the ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) framework, the impact of early childhood trauma on brain development, and how we can begin to identify past traumas through a child’s current behavior.

Join experts in the field of child stress and trauma as they delve into research-based strategies for building resilience in children of all ages. Your hosts, Dr. Julian Ford and Dr. Amanda Zelechoski, along with guest experts explore how children and families successfully face and overcome adversity, and how helping professionals can support and empower this resilience. Together they’ll paint a holistic picture of what the roadmap to resilience looks like for children experiencing stress and trauma.
