Professional Consulting, Training, and Speaking for Attorneys, Court-Adjacent Professionals, and Helping Professionals

Why Trauma-Informed Systems Insight Matters

Human trafficking survivors often present with trauma responses that are misunderstood in legal and professional settings, including fragmented memory, delayed disclosure, fear-based engagement, and apparent non-cooperation.

These are not credibility issues

.
They are documented trauma responses.

Without trauma-informed understanding, systems may unintentionally cause harm, delay justice, or contribute to professional burnout. My role is to translate trauma into practical, usable insight for professionals working in high-impact environments.
