Join Communities Of Collaboration host Fi Peel and general psychologist Louise Hansen as they explore the importance of cultivating trauma-informed care in every day life, in mental health service delivery, organisational structures and the socio-political landscape in the 21st century. Together Fi and Louise unpack the meaning of and possibilities for creating a trauma-informed world that flows beyond the realms of traditional psychological treatment models and reconnects people with deeply ingrained social, cultural and spiritual identities that foster recovery, healing and hope.
Dr Louise Hansen (pronouns: she/her) is from Cairns, Queensland, Australia. She is a kind, down to earth and compassionate person with 20 years experience in Psychology. A registered Psychologist who has also completed a PhD, she is passionate about supporting people to find a sense of safety and wellbeing and has had the privilege of teaching psychology to children at school and to adults at university. She has provided counselling to a range of people of all ages and different backgrounds with simple and complex needs.
Louise's approach provides person-centered, strengths-based supports in a culturally safe way. Applying non-judgmental practice, active listening and collaborative principles to foster co-working relationships that foster the best outcomes for specific needs, she also has intimate mastery over a range of trauma-informed tools that help us to establish a sense of safety and stabilisation, to enhance our perception of reality, and to learn to regulate our emotions. This results in a sense of clarity, connection and belonging. Louise also has a lived experience of trauma recovery. This has made her genuinely humble, passionate, pragmatic, optimistic and hopeful.
