In today’s world, many people carry silent stories of trauma, stress, and adversity. As professionals in supportive roles—whether as coaches, therapists, educators, or holistic practitioners—we are increasingly holding space for individuals who are not just seeking direction, but also safety, understanding, and healing.

The Trauma-Informed Coaching Course, is CPD Certified (15 hours of study) and accredited by the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine (IPHM), is a comprehensive training programme that equips you with the tools, awareness, and confidence to respond with compassion, skill, and ethical clarity.

This course bridges the gap between traditional coaching and the growing need for trauma-aware, nervous-system-informed, and client-centred practice.

What You'll Learn

This programme goes far beyond theory. Through ten in-depth modules, you’ll gain a deep, practical understanding of trauma-informed coaching, with a focus on both psychological insight and somatic integration.

Course Modules Overview

Module 1: Foundations of Trauma-Informed Coaching
Understand trauma, debunk common myths, and explore the coach’s scope versus therapeutic work.

Module 2: The Science of Trauma and the Nervous System
Explore how trauma impacts the brain and body, and learn to support nervous system regulation.

Module 3: Creating Psychological and Emotional Safety
Learn to establish safety before transformation, using grounded language and techniques.

Module 4: Recognising Trauma Responses and Triggers
Identify trauma-driven behaviours, patterns of dysregulation, and coaching strategies to support emotional safety.

Module 5: Self-Identity and Narrative in Healing
Help clients reframe trauma stories, reclaim their identity, and move from victimhood to empowerment.

Module 6: The Role of the Body in Trauma-Informed Coaching
Integrate breathwork, grounding, and body-based tools to support regulation and healing.

Module 7: Emotional Regulation and Resilience-Building
Support clients in managing big emotions and building tools for lasting resilience.

Module 8: Trauma-Informed Goal-Setting and Growth
Learn why traditional goal-setting fails trauma survivors—and how to set goals that support nervous system safety and sustainable change.

Module 9: Relationships and Boundaries
Coach clients through relationship repair, boundary-setting, and rebuilding trust after trauma.

Module 10: Ethical Practice and Professional Boundaries
Recognise red flags, know when to refer, and stay safe within your role as a trauma-informed coach.

• Hypnotherapists, NLP practitioners, and anyone working in a supportive role

• New and experienced coaches looking to deepen their impact and professionalism
