Is your campus or district looking for meaningful professional development? Are student behaviors becoming more challenging? Are the effects of trauma impacting both students and staff?

UpTIC provides trauma-informed professional development designed specifically for educators. Drawing from her experience in residential foster care and school systems, Dr. Kendra McLaughlin combines the science of trauma with practical, real-world strategies educators can implement immediately.

Whether you're looking to strengthen your trauma-informed practices, better support student behavior, or equip your staff with effective, research-informed tools, UpTIC is here to help.

We would love the opportunity to partner with your campus or district to support your educators—and ultimately, the students they serve.

Attention Parents of Young Children!

If you are struggling with defiance, tantrums, inattention, or other unwanted behaviors, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) might be a great fit for you and your child!
