Coaching and Trauma : Becoming Trauma Aware and Informed

Writing and talking about Coaching and Trauma over the last 5 years has been a wonderful experience, alongside this I have been continuing to learn from others in the field. I am also delighted that my book 'Coaching and Trauma' continues to be valuable to many, and it is great to hear from readers about how useful it has been to them. I had no idea when I wrote it that it would have the impact it seems to have had, and I am grateful to have been invited to put together my thoughts. As with all publications, if I was writing it now I would write it slightly differently, only to reflect on the learning I have continued to do in this field. I would focus more on the concept of trauma informed coaching, which Jenny and I brought into our Masterclasses. I am grateful for all who have bought it, and all who have yet to buy it, and hope that it brings value to your work as a coach, to your clients, and to you personally. 'Coaching and Trauma: from surviving to thriving' can be bought from online booksellers or direct from the publishers here.

We are no longer running the Masterclasses, but Jenny Rogers or I am available to give talks to groups. Please contact me, via the link below, or contact Jenny Rogers at www.jennyrogerscoaching.com

I am talking at the 2nd Annual Transformative Coaching Conference run by Animas Coaching on 9th November. My topic is 'Presence, fake presence; absence and avoidance'. I am enjoying putting it together. Maybe see you there? summit2023.animascoaching.com

Coaching and Trauma Testimonials

The workshop Jenny and Julia ran on Coaching and Trauma has completely revitalised and shifted my practice. The space to reflect and practise the approaches with experienced coaches was invaluable. I have used the framework subsequently with a number of clients and it has made sense of what is happening in our coaching relationship.

Masterclass participant

This work has proved both fascinating and significant in taking my coaching to another level. The insights I’ve gained from defining what trauma actually is and how this shows up in a coaching partnership, either in myself or my client, has made a profound change to how I work.

Masterclass participant

It is rare to find a training event that can so powerfully shift one’s perspective on clients. This training understands relatively common experiences as traumas and identifies fresh approaches, both to understand them, and to move forward without dwelling on the past. This program is a must for any serious coach practitioner.
