Sophie
Young Person's Trauma Informed Worker
Salford Children and Young People's Team
Hi, I’m Sophie and I joined the team in December 2020. Before joining I studied Childhood and Youth Studies & Criminology at University. I feel very passionate about working with children to enable them to take an active role in their own lives and reach their full potential. The first step in allowing this to happen is for children to feel safe in their environment, especially their home.
Growing up with domestic abuse can be a traumatic experience for children. There is no right or wrong way to experience trauma, my job is to help children process what has happened to them and develop coping skills to deal with their experiences and emotions in a safe and calming environment whilst empowering them to thrive in their lives.
