Featured Resource

Implementing psychologically informed environments and trauma informed care : leadership perspectives
ISBN: 9781032540788
Publication date: 2025

This book gathers together the experiences of leaders across sectors, organisations and client groups to help readers introduce, develop, and maintain psychologically informed environments (PIE) and trauma informed care (TIC) within their workspaces.

Featuring the voices of providers, commissioners, consultants, and trainers from the NHS, local authorities, and the voluntary sector, this unique text includes chapters on implementing PIE across a range of overlapping fields, including young people’s, homelessness, mental health, and women’s services. Each chapter describes the contributors’ experiences of which factors and processes enable or disable successful implementation of PIE/TIC; the unique challenges of leadership within this process; and how to understand the different dynamics at play in an organisation that determine effectiveness. With an emphasis on practical examples underpinned by theory, and recommendations drawn from the emergent themes, the book acts as an invitation for leaders to explore how they can influence the growth and evolving shape of PIE and trauma informed approaches across health and social care and support settings, and beyond.
