Gentle Teaching and Trauma Informed Support - with Karyn Harvey, Ph.D.

In August 2019, we had the opportunity to sit down with Karyn Harvey and discuss Trauma Informed Support and Gentle Teaching.

She has a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and a Ph.D. in Applied Developmental Psychology from the University of Maryland. She has published articles about therapeutic interventions with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), workbooks for individuals with IDD and two books. Her first book, Positive Identity Development, was published in 2009 and presents both theory and guidance for clinicians doing therapy with individuals with ID. Her second book, Trauma-Informed Behavioral Interventions, was published in 2011 and presents a trauma-informed care approach to working with individuals with ID both programmatically and clinically.
