    TIC 106: Childhood Trauma, Families and Generational\u202fInfluence<\/strong>

    TIC 109: Sexual Trauma and Violence<\/strong>
    Jennifer Cisney Ellers, M.A.<\/p>\n

    Frederica Brooks Davis, Psy.D.<\/p>\n

    Trauma intersects in many different ways with culture, history, race, gender, location, and language.

      A trauma-informed coach is a professional who incorporates principles and practices of trauma-informed care into their coaching approach. Trauma-informed coaching recognizes the widespread impact of trauma on individuals and aims to create a safe and supportive environment for clients who may have experienced trauma.<\/p>\n

      Coaches help clients develop a healthy balance in life, give guidance in decision making, offer support in navigating mental health difficulties, and assistance in establishing a recovery plan. Coaches help clients find ways to obtain and maintain stability, manage difficult symptoms, rebuild relationships, and find a purpose for living. Coaches also help clients find resources for professional care and treatment, family support, and education.<\/p>\n

      [\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What is the role of a Trauma-Informed Coach?” open_toggle_text_color=”#005544″ closed_toggle_text_color=”#005544″ icon_color=”#005544″ toggle_icon=”||divi||400″ open_icon_color=”#244257″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” title_text_color=”#005544″ title_line_height=”1.4em” border_radii=”on|6px|6px|6px|6px” border_width_all=”0px” border_color_bottom=”#005544″ icon_color__hover=”#005544″ icon_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” global_colors_info=”{}” closed_toggle_text_color__hover=”#005544″ closed_toggle_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” background_color__hover=”#244257″ background_enable_color__hover=”on” background__hover_enabled=”off|desktop” border_width_bottom__hover_enabled=”on|hover” open_toggle_text_color__hover_enabled=”off|hover” open_toggle_text_color__hover=”#005544″]<\/p>\n

      The role of a trauma-informed coach is to provide support, guidance, and empowerment to individuals who have experienced trauma, while recognizing and responding to the impact trauma may have on their well-being.<\/p>\n

      Life coaches with trauma-informed training are different from licensed mental health care providers. Coaches do not diagnose or provide clinical treatment for mental health conditions. Instead, they support positive change. They may help clients manage symptoms, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, set goals, and improve overall well-being. When appropriate, they encourage collaboration with licensed professionals.<\/p>\n

      Trauma-informed coaches also support the possibility of Post-Traumatic Growth, or PTG. This refers to positive personal growth that can happen after difficult life experiences. Coaches help clients recognize strengths they have developed, find new meaning, strengthen relationships, and clarify their sense of purpose. The focus is on creating safety and trust while helping clients move forward in a healthy and empowering way.<\/p>\n

      After completing the Trauma-Informed Care and Coaching Program, you will meet the educational requirements to apply for certification<\/a> as a Certified Trauma-informed Coach through the International Board of Christian Care (IBCC).<\/p>\n

      While certification is not legally required to practice coaching, it is strongly recommended for those who want to coach with credibility, confidence, and professional standards. Certification demonstrates that you are well-trained, biblically grounded, and committed to ethical, whole-person coaching. Final certification requirements are determined by IBCC and may be updated. Completing this program ensures you are on the correct educational pathway toward certification.<\/p>\n

      This course is designed for Christian coaches, counselors, ministry leaders, wellness professionals, and individuals who feel called to support others using trauma-informed, faith-based coaching strategies.<\/p>\n

      Upon successful completion, you will receive a certificate of completion for each course through your Light University TalentLMS account. These certificates are suitable for printing, adding to your r\u00e9sum\u00e9, and sharing on professional platforms such as LinkedIn.<\/p>\n

      This is a specialization program through Light University, not a standalone academic degree program. Individuals who complete the full Mental Health Coaching Program may receive a Master Diploma in Mental Health Coaching with a specialization in Trauma-informed Care and Coaching. <\/p>\n

      The Trauma-Informed Care and Coaching Program provides 27 training hours that may be applied toward continuing education requirements for coaches, including those pursuing credentialing through the International Board of Christian Care (IBCC).<\/p>\n

      However, this program is not approved for NBCC continuing education credit and does not qualify for CE credit toward mental health licensure renewal. Participants should confirm eligibility with their specific credentialing or professional organization.<\/p>\n
