- Topic
- Three specific grounding techniques a caregiver can use with a child after a trauma memory surfaces — concrete, teachable, within scope (somatic/nervous-system work).
- Arc
- Coping-skill arc: hook → why this helps → technique 1 → technique 2 → technique 3 → what to expect / be patient → CTA. Dropped one middle slide to meet 6-slide requirement.
- Hook
- Validation-driven, specific about the problem (hard memory) and the promise (3 ways to ground). Warm, not clinical. No fear or shame.
- Voice
- Warm, encouraging, plain language. Speaks to the caregiver about the child. Camp/trail imagery not forced. Echoes client reframe: 'Kids borrow calm from grown-ups' and 'Safety first, story later.'
- CTA
- Assigned CTA 'Save this for later' worded naturally for a coping-skill post — this is a reference they'll want to return to.
- Constraints
- Never teach EMDR (mentioned only). Techniques from somatic/nervous-system (approved). No diagnosis framing. No outcome promises. Crisis resource added to final content slide. Disclaimer on CTA slide. No graphic trauma detail. Stayed within 6-7 slide range after correction.
