Empowering Coaches to Support Clients with Confidence: A Guide to Trauma-Informed Coaching
In today’s coaching landscape, understanding trauma and supporting clients holistically is essential.
Trauma-informed coaching is more than a trend. It’s a necessary skill set that empowers coaches to offer safe, effective guidance.
Becky, an accredited trainer and program creator, says it best: “I believe that every coach deserves the confidence to support clients holistically, especially when trauma shows up in their lives. This program is the bridge to that confidence.”
Why Trauma-Informed Coaching Matters
Trauma affects more people than we realize, and its impact can shape every aspect of life. Coaches, especially those working with women entrepreneurs or individuals in high-stress roles, are likely to encounter clients who carry unresolved trauma. Addressing this effectively requires specific training to ensure coaches don’t inadvertently cause harm.
What is Trauma-Informed Coaching?
Trauma-informed coaching is an approach that equips coaches with the tools and understanding to recognize, respect and adapt to clients’ trauma histories. Rather than diving into therapeutic practices, it empowers coaches to create an environment of emotional safety, where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. This approach respects the boundaries of traditional coaching while integrating trauma-awareness.
Why We Need It NOW
As coaches, we see it all—our clients’ triumphs and sometimes their deep-rooted struggles. Trauma can profoundly impact their journey, often affecting their ability to move forward.
By understanding trauma and its effects, you can foster a safe, supportive environment that empowers clients to achieve meaningful progress, even when past challenges emerge.
You can become the coach who clients trust fully, knowing you hold space for even their most delicate issues. That’s the gift of trauma-informed coaching, and now you can offer it. Even better, you can use the tools you learn here to work through your own trauma.
This exclusive first cohort is designed for those serious about expanding their skills with new techniques and approaches that bring a trauma-informed, holistic focus to coaching.
Whether you’re looking to support clients with confidence or simply recognize when it’s time to refer them to a therapist, this certification is the key.

What You’ll Learn in This 10-Week Comprehensive Program
Each week builds upon the last, providing a blend of live sessions, practical exercises, and ongoing support.
How it comes together:
-
Foundations Trauma and its Impact on the Brain
Understanding the science behind trauma helps you recognize behavioral patterns in clients that may be rooted in past experiences, not current circumstances they brought to you for coaching. - Types of Trauma and Symptoms
Trauma can be acute (a single event), chronic (repeated exposure), or complex (long-term exposure). Understanding these symptoms helps us coach with empathy and avoid judgement. - Trauma-Informed Principles and Ethics
The five core principles that shape how we build trust and foster a safe, supportive environment for our clients – how they work and why they matter. - Building Psychological Safety in Sessions
Creating an environment where clients feel safe and heard is foundational. We’ll explore strategies like setting session agreements, validating emotions, and observing non-verbal cues for discomfort or overwhelm. - Boundaries in Trauma-Informed Coaching
Establishing clear boundaries, knowing when to refer, and staying grounded in your role as a coach. - Understanding the Somatic Aspects of Trauma
Diving into somatic responses—the way trauma can show up physically. You might notice that a client’s body language shifts or they experience physical discomfort when discussing certain topics. - Trauma-Informed Communication
Focusing on skills like reflective listening, empathy and validating language to support clients in feeling safe to explore their emotions. Trauma-affected clients may be sensitive to certain words or tones, so it’s important to focus on empathy and language. - Resilience and Post Traumatic-Growth
Strategies for supporting clients to recognize their resilience, encouraging self-compassion and fostering a sense of purpose. - Self-Care and Vicarious Trauma for Coaches
Focusing on you and the importance of self-care. To be effective long-term, you need to maintain strong boundaries, seek support, and create a self-care plan to support yourself mentally and emotionally. - Integrating Trauma-Informed Techniques with Coaching Models
From cognitive-behavioral approaches to solution-focused and somatic coaching, trauma-informed techniques can complement nearly any model. We’ll review popular frameworks and discuss how to adapt them to work compassionately with trauma-affected clients.
We’ll also discuss ways to help clients reconnect with their bodies through grounding exercises, breath-work and mindful movement.
Each lesson is designed to provide immediately applicable skills to integrate trauma-sensitive approaches into your practice right away.
