Trauma work is powerful.
It’s also delicate.

Many practitioners are working with trauma -often without realising it.
Others know they’re working with trauma, but don’t feel fully confident they’re doing so safely, effectively, or in the right sequence.

‍This workshop is designed to change that.

‍Join Dr Alex Howard and Anna Duschinsky for a deeply practical, trauma-informed exploration of how to work with trauma in a way that supports regulation, avoids re-traumatisation, and creates the conditions for real change.

This workshop is for you if you are:

A therapist, coach, or practitioner working with clients who have trauma histories and want a clearer, safer framework

On your own healing journey, and curious about how the Therapeutic Coaching^® model supports trauma recovery

Considering training as a Therapeutic Coach, and want to understand the depth and integrity of the approach

A therapist feeling overwhelmed by multiple modalities and wanting a coherent way to integrate them

A coach who recognises trauma shows up in their work and wants to engage with it responsibly and ethically

In this 3-hour workshop, you’ll explore:

The ECHO model – a clear, four-stage framework for understanding how trauma shapes experience

Why sequencing matters in trauma work — and how the wrong timing can slow or destabilise healing

The difference between trauma and childhood emotional neglect, and why confusing them changes outcomes

The central role of the nervous system, and why regulation must come before meaning-making

The three core emotional needs we all carry — and how unmet needs drive trauma patterns into adulthood

How to work with the system, rather than pushing against it

This isn’t about adding more techniques.

It’s about learning how to create the conditions where techniques actually work.
