Reply to "A Better word than trauma-informed?"

How about Trauma Compassionate? There are lots of words that I disagree in the developing practice of how to address childhood acquired trauma. I haven't liked resilience, for example. And Trauma Informed is another one. My viewpoint has been guided by the work advanced by Dr. Heather Larkin at SUNY Albany. She has applied a Restorative Integral Support Model to ACE's with a 4 view quadrant. The 4th Quadrant is the Worldview Mr. Olcott refers to. By looking at where the trauma develops in the brain to how it manifests through behavioral expression and our cultural response to it, we should be able to develop a pathway for each individual trauma sufferer to find a pathway to healing. It's not an easy task from a world view, but if we look at an individual person view, we can start.
