Join Dr. Kate Ward for a practical workshop exploring how formulation can support work with young people who have experienced trauma and adversity and who also present with significant risk and complexity. The workshop will consider how clinicians can make sense of complex presentations, sequence interventions, and identify what may need to happen before or alongside trauma-focused therapy. With a particular emphasis on multi-agency formulation and its application in clinical practice, the session will help participants develop a more structured and collaborative approach to planning care when straightforward pathways into therapy may not be possible.
