Welcome
... and thank you for your interest in the Heartland Trauma Institute.
The professionals at Heartland Trauma Institute are experts at psychological triage. They’re in the business of healing lives that have been impacted by trauma, abuse, and torture. In the course of their work, they focus on three very different, but connected, communities.
The Heartland Trauma Institute:
- Trains professionals [psychologists, social workers, counselors, marriage and family therapists, trauma specialists, physicians, clergy/pastoral counselors, school nurses, guidance counselors, alcoholism and drug abuse counselors, psychiatric nurses] ... by equipping these compassionate individuals to understand and interact more effectively with trauma survivors and promote the healing process.
- Empowers hurting individuals [those who have survived trauma or extreme abuse] ... by providing encouraging answers and real solutions during the healing process.
- Builds caring community [friends, neighbors, loved ones] by educating the community-at-large ... how trauma affects a life and how to support trauma survivors in meaningful and helpful ways.

Because this website will always be a work-in-progress, we encourage you to check back often as we continually add new information in the form of white papers, suggested websites, thought- provoking articles, online coursework. We invite you to:
- Delve deeper into the subject of trauma. Read articles. Take online coursework.
