Case conceptualisation is central to psychological practice. It helps clinicians organise information, understand how a person’s difficulties may have developed and been maintained, and decide what treatment would be adequate.

Care experienced children and young people are much more likely to experience trauma and trauma-related mental health difficulties than their peers.

In this blog, we explore these barriers, as well as what effective trauma-informed care could look like. Blog by Professor Francisco Musich.
