Trauma Informed CoachingCourse

Created by Kirsty Watson, a qualified hypnotherapist (HPD) with a strong background in holistic wellness and personal transformation, this course is grounded in a whole-person approach—mind, body, and soul. Kirsty brings a wealth of knowledge from additional training in life coaching, nutrition, NLP, Reiki, quantum healing, and trauma-informed practice.

By studying this course, you will develop the knowledge and confidence to support trauma-affected clients using a coaching approach that honours their safety, autonomy, and healing pace. You'll learn how trauma impacts the nervous system, behaviour, and relationships—and how to create the conditions clients need to thrive.

You will gain practical tools for identifying trauma responses, holding emotional space, and guiding clients through regulation techniques, identity repair, and safe goal-setting. The course teaches you to work ethically and within your role, referring on where needed while still being a powerful presence in a client's transformation.

This course combines trauma theory with body-based techniques, empowering you to support resilience and emotional recovery. You’ll also explore how to reframe stories, support clients’ self-worth, and build coaching relationships based on trust, boundaries, and empowerment.

By the end, you’ll feel equipped to coach with compassion, clarity, and confidence in trauma-informed methods.
