What does ethical trauma-informed care look like when working with people who have offended?

In this episode, Rabbi Mendel Kastel speaks with Dr Kate Gould, a clinical neuropsychologist and researcher at Monash University, about brain injury, rehabilitation, and restorative approaches to justice. Dr Gould shares her work supporting people with acquired brain injuries in the justice system, and the need for trauma-aware, person-centred responses.

Together, they explore where faith, neuroscience, and human dignity intersect—and how awareness, not judgment, opens the door to healing.
