Frequently Asked Questions
Trauma-informed coaching is the practice of understanding the presence of trauma in a coach-client relationship and how to use it as a guide for resilience and solution-forward resolution. The depth of information and skill to ‘hold’ a space for profound coaching work is what gives trauma-informed coaching its nuance and strength.
Trauma-informed coaches have training in client regulation, brain-body connection, behavioural reaction, different types of traumas, leading causes, and subsequent symptoms. They will have learned methods to help ‘regulate’ the nervous system, discard shame and guilt through powerful questions, and recognize and promote wellness as it starts to develop. Trauma-informed coaches have learned the proper channels for referral and the growing relationship between clinical professionals, therapists, and coaches. To become a trauma-informed coach, one must have authenticity, strong values, and beliefs that are not limiting to working in this area.
Anyone who has experienced trauma – in childhood or as an adult – can benefit from trauma-informed coaching. Likewise, you don’t need to have experienced trauma to benefit from a trauma-informed approach.
