Impact of Trauma on Brain Development: Understanding and Mitigating Its Effects

Explore the physical architecture of the developing brain and the classifications of stress in relation to trauma's effects on mental and physical health. Learn about normal reactions to abnormal situations, the National Scientific Council on the Developing Child's findings, and the damage trauma can cause to various brain functions, including learning, memory, arousal, and emotion regulation. Understand how trauma impacts brain functioning, pathways, executive functioning, milestones, and social interactions.
