Why this course?
Every person has a story, and understanding that story is essential to providing meaningful support. SAL Consulting’s Introduction to NATI course introduces participants to our Neurodevelopment, Attachment and Trauma-Informed (NATI) Framework—an evidence-informed approach that helps practitioners understand not just what is happening for a person, but why.
How does it work?
This one-day, face-to-face workshop explores how brain development, early relationships, and traumatic experiences shape behaviour, emotional regulation, learning, and relationships throughout life.
Delivered by experienced SAL Consulting clinicians, the course introduces the principles of the NATI Framework and demonstrates how this integrated approach can help practitioners identify both the challenges and strengths of the people they support.
Topics include:
Brain development and how it influences behaviour
The role of attachment in healthy development
Understanding the impact of trauma across the lifespan
Recognising the effects of vicarious trauma on practitioners
Using assessment to identify strengths, needs, and intervention priorities
Developing biologically respectful, developmentally informed support plans
Participants will explore practical examples and contemporary research, building confidence to apply NATI principles within their own workplace and professional practice.
This course provides an excellent introduction to SAL Consulting’s therapeutic approach and lays the foundation for more advanced learning in trauma-informed and neurodevelopmentally informed practice.
