Eden has almost twenty years of clinical experience in the field of social work, with expertise in trauma recovery. She is the owner and director of Eden Dales Social Work (EDSW), a community based social work practice, and she also has a private counselling practice in North York.
In this conversation, Eden discusses her journey into social work, her experience working in New York City following the September 11 attacks at the World Trade Center, dealing with feelings of shame and adaptability, as well as an introduction to trauma informed care.
In this second episode of our conversation with Eden Dales, we go in-depth on trauma informed care, the relationship between stress and trauma, understanding the importance of a trauma informed approach, creating healthy boundaries, and crisis intervention.
