How to Help Children & Teens Who Get Angry | #TRIBETalk Ep. 37

Episode 37

Monday, June 15, 2026 • Duration 20:35

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore one of the most common challenges faced by parents, carers, and professionals: supporting children and teenagers who become angry. While anger is often viewed as the problem, it is usually a signal that something deeper is going on. Beneath anger may be fear, anxiety, frustration, shame, overwhelm, or unmet needs that a young person is struggling to express in other ways.

Using a trauma-informed and behavioural lens, we discuss why some children and teens experience anger more intensely than others, what may be driving these reactions, and how adults can respond effectively. Rather than focusing solely on stopping angry behaviour, this episode explores how to understand it, reduce escalation, and help young people develop healthier ways of managing and communicating difficult emotions.

Episode Highlights

What may sit underneath angry behaviour
How trauma can influence emotional regulation and anger
Common triggers for anger in children and teenagers
The difference between reacting to anger and understanding it
Practical strategies to reduce escalation and conflict
How to teach emotional regulation and coping skills
Supporting long-term change rather than short-term compliance

How To Help Your Child Navigate Bedtime Successfully | #TRIBE Talk Ep. 35

Episode 35

Monday, June 8, 2026 • Duration 25:56

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore why bedtime can be one of the most challenging parts of the day for some children. While bedtime struggles are often viewed as a behavioural issue, they can frequently be linked to anxiety, attachment needs, emotional regulation difficulties, and past experiences of trauma. As the distractions of the day reduce, worries, fears, and big emotions can become more difficult for children to manage.

Using a trauma-informed lens, we discuss what may sit beneath bedtime resistance, repeated requests, avoidance, emotional outbursts, and difficulties settling to sleep. This episode provides practical strategies to help children feel safe, regulated, and supported at bedtime while reducing stress for the adults caring for them.

What Makes a Children's Home Trauma-Informed? | #TRIBE Talk - Ep. 34

Episode 34

Monday, June 1, 2026 • Duration 31:53

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore what it really means for a children's home to be trauma-informed. While many services describe themselves as trauma-informed, the reality is that trauma-informed care is much more than training, policies, or good intentions. It requires a whole-system approach that shapes how staff understand behaviour, build relationships, respond to crises, and support young people every day.

Drawing on real-world experience from residential care settings, we discuss the key ingredients of effective trauma-informed residential care and how they create environments where children can feel safe, develop trusting relationships, and begin to heal from past adversity.

Episode Highlights:

What trauma-informed residential care actually means
Why training alone is not enough to create trauma-informed practice
Understanding behaviour through a trauma and attachment lens
The role of relationships in supporting healing and recovery
Creating safety, predictability, and consistency within the home
Supporting staff to deliver trauma-informed care effectively
How assessment, formulation, and intervention work together
What good trauma-informed residential care looks like in everyday practice

What To Do When Your Child's Behaviours Are Escalating | #TRIBE Talk - Ep. 33

Episode 33

Tuesday, May 26, 2026 • Duration 28:17

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore what to do when a child’s behaviour feels like it is escalating—when emotions are becoming bigger, conflict is increasing, and strategies that once worked no longer seem effective. For many parents and carers, these moments can feel overwhelming, exhausting, and difficult to make sense of.

Using a trauma-informed and behavioural lens, we unpack what may sit underneath escalating behaviours and why children often communicate distress through actions rather than words. This episode focuses on practical, compassionate responses that help reduce escalation, strengthen regulation, and rebuild connection—supporting adults to move away from reactive cycles and towards calmer, more effective support.

Episode Highlights:

Why behaviours may escalate over time
Understanding the difference between “won’t” and “can’t”
How stress, overwhelm, and unmet needs show up behaviourally
Common adult responses that accidentally increase escalation
Practical de-escalation and co-regulation strategies
Why connection and predictability matter during difficult moments
Knowing when additional support may be needed

5 Things Foster Carers Wish Professionals Knew About Trauma-Informed Care | #TRIBE Talk - Ep. 32

Episode 32

Monday, May 11, 2026 • Duration 22:21

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we bring the voice of foster carers to the forefront highlighting what they wish professionals truly understood about trauma-informed care. Foster carers are on the front line of supporting children with complex trauma, yet their insights are often underrepresented in decision-making, planning, and intervention design.

This episode explores five key messages that can transform how professionals work alongside carers—moving from fragmented, inconsistent approaches to more aligned, relational, and effective support. Grounded in real-world experience and trauma-informed principles, this conversation focuses on improving collaboration, strengthening understanding, and ultimately achieving better outcomes for children.

Episode Highlights:

Why consistency between home and professional input is critical
The importance of listening to and valuing carers’ lived experience
How misalignment between professionals and carers impacts children
Supporting carers, not just the child
Building stronger, more collaborative relationships between carers and professionals

Why Endings Are So Hard for Care-Experienced Children | | #TRIBE Talk - Ep. 31

Episode 31

Monday, May 4, 2026 • Duration 23:12

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore why endings, big or small, can feel particularly difficult for care-experienced children. Whether it’s the end of a visit, a school day, a relationship, or a placement, these moments can trigger intense emotional responses that may seem disproportionate to what’s happening in the present.

Through a trauma-informed lens, we unpack how past experiences of loss, separation, and unpredictability shape children’s responses to endings. We discuss how these experiences can impact trust, emotional regulation, and expectations of relationships, and why endings may be experienced as unsafe rather than simply transitional.

This episode offers practical, compassionate guidance for parents, carers, and professionals—helping you understand what sits beneath these reactions and how to support children through endings in a way that builds safety, predictability, and emotional resilience over time.

Episode Highlights:

Why endings can feel overwhelming for care-experienced children
The impact of loss, separation, and disrupted attachments
How past experiences shape present reactions to endings
Why even small transitions can trigger big emotions
The role of predictability and preparation
Practical ways to support children before, during, and after endings
Building trust and emotional safety around transitions

Episode 30

Monday, April 27, 2026 • Duration 19:40

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, play therapist Aleisha walks us through two well-known attachment-based interventions: Theraplay and PCAP (Parent Child Attachment Play). Both approaches focus on strengthening the relationship between the child and their caregiver, using structured, playful interactions to build connection, safety, and emotional regulation.

We explore how each approach works in practice, where they overlap, and how they differ in structure, delivery, and focus. Through a trauma-informed lens, this episode helps parents, carers, and professionals understand how attachment-based therapies can support children’s emotional development—particularly for those with trauma histories—by working directly with both the child and the parent to create meaningful, relational change.

Episode Highlights:

What Theraplay and PCAP (Parent Child Attachment Play) are
How both approaches use play to strengthen attachment and connection
Key similarities between Theraplay and PCAP
Important differences in structure, delivery, and focus
The role of the parent within each intervention
How attachment-based therapies support children with trauma histories

PARENTS What You Need To Know About ONLINE RISK & Childhood TRAUMA | #TRIBE Talk - Ep. 29

Episode 29

Monday, April 20, 2026 • Duration 33:18

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of TRIBE Talk, we explore the growing intersection between online risk and childhood trauma, and why some children are more vulnerable in digital spaces than others. While the online world offers connection and opportunity, it also presents real risks particularly for children whose past experiences may impact their decision-making, boundaries, and need for connection.

Using a trauma-informed lens, we unpack how trauma can influence online behaviour, including risk-taking, seeking validation, and difficulty recognising danger. This episode provides parents with a clear, practical understanding of what sits beneath online risk and how to respond in ways that prioritise safety, connection, and long-term skill development rather than fear or restriction alone.

Here is the link to TRIBE Trauma Informed Care which we mention in the podcast: https://www.tribecare.org/tribe-training

Episode Highlights:

Why children with trauma histories may be more vulnerable online
The link between trauma, attachment, and online behaviour
