Sukanya Ray, Assistant Professor, School of Human Ecology, .speak TISS Mumbai, was invited to deliver a two-day workshop from 30th - 31st October, on Trauma Informed Counselling, for the 9 Counsellors at the Institute Counselling Services, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. It was an intensive two-day hands-on training where the counsellors, most of whom are registered clinical psychologists, learnt about treating complex trauma and were imparted with practice skills to become trauma-informed in their work with students, especially for handling students in crisis. We appreciate the initiative taken by the IIT Kanpur Institute Counselling Services, to deepen their counsellors' skills in attending to students' mental health concerns.
Ms. Sukanya is a clinical psychologist and trauma therapist by training and has been associated with TISS since 2018 as a faculty member. She is the faculty-in-charge for the Short Term Programs in Trauma Therapy, which are pioneering programs by TISS in the field of Traumatology.
