We are a multidisciplinary team of researchers committed to improving understanding and support for children and young people who experience trauma-related dissociation.
Our Western-Australia based team collaborates closely with families, clinicians, educators, and community partners. We are committed not only to generating high-quality evidence, but to ensuring that our research is accessible, respectful, and responsive to the needs of those most impacted.
Our Commitment
We are deeply committed to:
- Supporting children and adolescents who experience trauma-related dissociation
- Upholding trauma-informed research practices, including safety, empowerment, transparency, and collaboration
- Meaningfully involving people with lived experience (including families and loved ones) in the design and conduct of our research
- Translating research findings into practical resources and improvements in care
We recognise that trauma-related dissociation is often misunderstood and under-recognised. Our work seeks to contribute to clearer identification, safer support pathways, and improved long-term outcomes for young people.
