Healing from Complex Ptsd
International Complex Trauma Association

Trauma-trained, neuroscience based recovery for developmental (childhood) trauma.

Grounded, brain first education for individuals and mental health practitioners working with Complex Ptsd

Welcome to CPtsd Education


Not just regulated. Reconnected.


Not just surviving. Integrated.


CPtsd Education offers trauma trained, neuroscience based recovery for adults who have experienced developmental trauma.


Complex Ptsd is not a failure to regulate, cope or function. It reflects neurodevelopmental adaptations shaped by early timing, relational conditions and intergenerational influences.

This work recognises the long term impact of those early adaptations in childhood, without pathologising the person or reducing recovery to symptom control.

Recovery here is experiential, individually paced and developmentally respectful.

NeuroSynqt™ is a neuroscience based, experiential framework that supports adults with developmental trauma through individually sequenced integration, respecting how each brain adapted for survival.

NeuroSynqt™ Core Principles

NeuroSynqt™ is a neuroscience based framework developed to support adults with developmental trauma through integration that respects how each brain adapted for survival.

NeuroSynqt™ recognises that neurodevelopmental trauma produces diverse patterns of brain organisation and does not assume a single pathway of recovery.

The NeuroSynqt™ Core is grounded in principles that remain consistent across all applications while recognising recovery is not uniform and cannot be standardised.

These principles reflect that:

  • Developmental trauma organises the brain around survival before choice and identity become internal structures.

  • Developmental trauma organises processes of adaptation, not diagnostic pathology, morality, motivation or maturity in adult individuals, regardless of belief system.

  • Integration emerges at the neurobiological level as structure and capacity become present, not through pressure or force.

  • Regulation is an outcome of integration. It is not a standalone skill to be imposed or trained in isolation


NeuroSynqt™ provides a stable conceptual framework that supports adult brains to connect and integrate over time while allowing recovery to unfold in ways that are specific to each individual’s developmental history.

NeuroSynqt™ principles are shared for orientation and understanding. Application, sequencing and clinical use are taught exclusively within accredited education and supervision.

Why Reconnection and Integration Matter

Developmental trauma influences how integration, access and overall system stability become available across the lifespan. These capacities do not emerge on demand and cannot be imposed or accelerated without risk.

Recovery therefore requires more than coping strategies or insight alone.

For adults with developmental trauma, sustainable change depends on the presence of internal conditions that allow integration to occur in the present, rather than attempts to override or manage what the brain cannot yet hold.

This work is concerned with supporting completion of interrupted development in ways that are safe, responsive and non overwhelming.

1 in 3 adults experienced significant childhood adversity.
High ACE scores are linked to chronic illness, mental health conditions, addiction, and relational strain.

Conventional “talk therapy” often misses the brain-body stuck in survival patterns -leaving clients trapped in repetitive symptom management for years.

When trauma goes unrecognised or untreated, it silently fuels lifelong struggles with mental health, relationships, physical illness, and self-worth. Professionals need more than surface-level strategies — they need trauma-trained, brain-based education that gets to the root.

CPtsd includes emotional flooding, dissociation, identity disruption, somatic symptoms, and restricted access across brain systems.

According to the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study, individuals with high ACE scores are significantly more likely to experience chronic health conditions, addiction, mental illness, and early death. In fact, having four or more ACEs increases the risk of depression by 460%.

In the U.S. alone, over 700,000 children are reported as victims of abuse and neglect annually. These early relational wounds leave long-lasting imprints on the developing brain, shaping identity, safety, and the ability to connect.


When developmental trauma remains unrecognised, the brain continues to organise around survival beyond the period of actual threat.

Professional practice therefore requires more than surface level strategies. Effective intervention depends on trauma trained, neuroscience based education that addresses underlying developmental adaptation and supports integration and stable access over time.

Why CPtsd recovery requires neuroscience based approaches

For practitioners and professionals, here’s what matters.

✅ Why Brain First Matters

Neurodevelopmental trauma alters brain network organisation and access to functional systems. Recovery therefore requires neuroscience based approaches that are responsive to capacity, access and overall system stability rather than fixed therapeutic sequences.

NeuroSynqt™ does not apply a uniform model of care. Interventions that support integration for one individual may exceed the adaptive capacity of another and increase disorganisation.

✅ For Psychologists, Coaches

Traditional tools focus on insight. NeuroSynqt™ teaches reconnection and integration - where real change begins.

✅ Brain First, Experiential Focus

NeuroSynqt™ is grounded in developmental trauma science, neuroplasticity, relational safety, and experiential integration.

Learning is designed to build internal structure before expecting regulation, processing or behavioural change.

✅ The NeuroSynqt™ Difference

Most trauma approaches focus on top-down (thinking) or bottom-up (feeling). But when CPtsd is present, neither alone is enough.

NeuroSynqt™ uses a side-door approach - building access, structure and identity so regulation and processing can emerge naturally.

✅ Trauma Impacted Brains Need More

Many clients appear “stuck” because their brains are still organised for survival.
Integration first work supports capacity before exposure and safety before depth.

✅ Stop the Stagnation

This work supports lasting change by restoring choice, presence, and coherence rather than managing symptoms indefinitely.

✅ Core Training Missing

Around the world, therapists aren't taught how to recognise or treat developmental trauma during their standard training. Developmental trauma and CPtsd remain under taught in standard professional education, despite being central to adult clinical presentations.
"Every form of self regulation we've been able to look at -
  • regulating attention
  • regulating emotional affect
  • regulating mood
  • regulating thought
  • regulating physiology
  • regulating relationships
  • regulating behaviour
all those terms come under the broad term "Self Regulation"
Every aspect of regulation we could explore depends on integration of the brain"
Dr Dan Siegel


Every aspect of regulation depends on integration of the brain.

Meet Our Founder Linda Meredith

Clinical Complex Trauma Educator
Creator of NeuroSynqt™
Founder of CPtsd Education
Registered Training Provider

CPtsd Education exists to address a gap that continues to exist within professional training: the absence of trauma trained, neuroscience based education that adequately addresses developmental trauma and Complex Ptsd in adults.

While much professional education continues to emphasise insight, symptom management or regulation in isolation, developmental trauma presents a different clinical picture. It reflects early adaptations shaped by timing, relational context and survival demands, requiring approaches that are responsive to how the brain organised under those conditions.

I am Linda Meredith, founder of CPtsd Education and developer of the NeuroSynqt™ framework. 

NeuroSynqt™ was developed in response to the limitations of existing models that did not adequately account for developmental injury or the long term impact of early trauma on adult brain organisation. It is a trauma trained, neuroscience based framework designed to work with protective adaptations rather than attempting to override or correct them.

All education offered through CPtsd Education is grounded in this framework. The work is experiential, carefully paced and oriented toward supporting functional capacity in real world contexts, rather than theoretical understanding alone.

This is not self help.

This is professional, trauma trained education designed for the complexity of adult life with Complex Ptsd.

Why Trauma Trained Matters

Most professionals are taught to be trauma informed.
When it comes to Complex Ptsd, that is not sufficient.

Being trauma trained involves:

  • Understanding how developmental trauma alters brain organisation over time

  • Working effectively with dissociation, identity disruption and intergenerational patterns

  • Applying education that is responsive to capacity, access and system stability rather than relying on awareness alone

At CPtsd Education, we equip practitioners with education that goes beyond awareness. Our resources are trauma trained, neuroscience based and designed to support functional capacity in everyday life. All programs are delivered online, self paced and accessible globally.

"Linda Meredith is a powerhouse when it comes to bringing research and information together to help us understand complex trauma. More importantly, she breaks things down in a way that is easily accessible with a program that is uber flexible.  The homework isn't about regurgitating information or memorizing terminology, but rather how we can embody the knowledge while healing from complex trauma ourselves.  An incredibly generous professional Linda prolifically creates beautiful templates, workbooks, and packettes of information to make it easier for coaches to run their business. I feel as though I have Linda 24/7 in my back pocket supporting me to do what I need to do for my clients. Linda Meredith is a gift to the world and this one-of-a-kind complex trauma certificate program is exactly what I need at this point in my life. Thanks Linda for what you do!"

I had been in and out of therapy for over 20 years. As a psychologist myself, I was perplexed on why I was going consistently to therapy but not feeling any progress.
Thank God I found Linda! Linda has helped me experience growth that for me was unimaginable. Her knowledge of trauma and trauma recovery is amazing! In a loving and compassionate manner, she has taught me helpful tools and strategies to manage my trauma symptoms.

Linda always respects my point of view and beliefs without judgement. Most importantly, Linda made me feel heard, seen understood and cared for. Further, her sessions are a good value for the money. The time I've spent working with Linda have been the most valuable of my life. Not only did we form a trusting, patient relationship, she has helped and continues to help me slowly understand what had happened to me. I now feel equipped to do things differently. It's been the most liberating and empowering experience and I've learned things that will stay with me forever. Thank you Linda!
