01

Coaching by therapists

Many aspects of therapy—such as structuring progress, setting goals, and fostering exploration—overlap with coaching. Yet, many therapists view coaching as a diluted form of therapy. What if learning to coach could make you a better therapist? In this lesson, we’ll explore how coaching can offer a structured, action-oriented complement to therapy, without sacrificing depth or ethics.

02

Ethics for coaches

Coaching offers flexibility, but with that comes responsibility. People with complex trauma have often been harmed by caregivers who were supposed to protect them. In this lesson, we’ll cover essential ethical guidelines for coaches and therapists transitioning to coaching, ensuring that we create a safe, empowering space without reinforcing old wounds.

03

Complex not complicated

The complexity of trauma doesn’t mean healing has to be confusing. When we recognize patterns, shifts, and tensions, we can guide the process without creating unnecessary struggles. In this lesson, we’ll explore how to engage with complexity without making it complicated—avoiding common pitfalls and negative feedback loops.

04

Becoming a person

Many people with complex trauma feel like they’re faking being a “real” person—hollow, broken, or undeserving of love. This lesson focuses on integration: reclaiming lost parts of the self, detoxifying blame and shame, validating subjective experience, and cultivating true self-worth.

05

Roles, parts, types, stereotyptes

People with complex trauma often struggle with a shifting, unstable sense of self. We may cling to roles imposed by others or feel stuck in ineffective self-states. Instead of erasing any part of ourselves, we will learn to recognize, host, and integrate all aspects of our identity—bringing clarity and inner harmony.

06

Shadow work by character

The parts of ourselves we reject—the “not-me” aspects we fear or despise—are often our greatest untapped strengths. Whether it’s emotional depth for the cerebral, stillness for the achiever, or discipline for the free spirit, integrating these neglected parts brings balance, resilience, and genuine growth.

Triggers and keys

Think of your mind as a switchboard, where some triggers can pull you into distressing states, while certain “keys” (like music, movement, or connection) can elevate and stabilize you. In this lesson, we’ll identify personal triggers and keys, creating a practical roadmap to emotional regulation.

08

Trust is not control

Many people with complex trauma mistake control for trust. True trust requires vulnerability—the ability to express needs without justification or proof, and to receive understanding without manipulation. We’ll explore how to build secure attachment patterns, even if our early relationships taught us otherwise.

09

Feeling the body

The body holds everything we’ve been unable to process consciously—tension, trauma, and emotional wounds. In this lesson, we’ll explore ways to reconnect with the body, regulate stress responses, and develop a compassionate, attuned relationship with ourselves through movement, breath, and self-care.

10

Finding love

Romantic relationships can be a minefield for people with complex trauma, as we may unconsciously seek partners who validate our insecurities. This lesson will explore practical steps toward forming secure, fulfilling relationships—developing emotional openness, trust, and resilience in the face of uncertainty.

Thriving at work

Navigating organizational politics can be overwhelming, especially for those who crave control to manage inner chaos. This lesson focuses on developing assertiveness, setting boundaries, and handling conflict in professional settings—so you can be seen, valued, and respected without burnout.

12

Becoming a parent

The desire to build a loving family can be overshadowed by the fear of repeating past trauma. Parenting requires both emotional healing and practical skills in tenderness, patience, and repair. We’ll explore how to break cycles, embrace imperfection, and parent in a way that feels safe and fulfilling.

Letting go

Loss—whether of a loved one, a dream, or a version of ourselves—is inevitable. But grieving is not just about sadness; it’s also about transformation. In this final lesson, we’ll explore how to move through grief with compassion, allowing it to deepen our sense of meaning rather than diminish us.
