Education
Informed by the Latest in Neuroscience for Developmental Trauma ~ CPtsd
Science is increasingly showing that childhood developmental trauma impacts the brain on a neurobiological level. Therefore, to efficiently and effectively help clients recover from complex trauma, it’s essential to have a collection of evidence-based tools, informed by neuroscience.
In the certification course, you will gain a clear understanding of how trauma impacts the brain and the body. Plus, we’ll cover practical techniques for working with the neurological impacts of CPtsd.
This knowledge and skills will allow you to support clients to achieve healing and recovery beyond what is available through traditional talk therapy—often in a much shorter space of time.

F.A.Q's
Can I use the Certification Globally?
Yes, certification can be used to work with clients globally and IICT offers Global Insurance coverage for this Certification
Q: Is the MPCT a Degree?
No. The Master Practitioner in Complex Trauma Certification (MPCT) is not currently a university affiliated degree. Healing from Complex Ptsd and www.cptsdeducation.com provide accredited professional training, but not degree level qualifications at this stage.
We are, however, in discussions with a university to develop a program that builds on this certification and takes the learning to degree level. This is a long term project that will only begin once the certification program is fully complete, given the scale of work required.
Will I have ongoing access to the course materials?
Yes. Each unit you purchase includes lifetime access to all content - videos, slides, transcripts, workbooks, and resources. This means you can return to the material at any time, as often as you need.
Because complex trauma recovery is both layered and individual, it isn’t about memorising everything in one go. Instead, you’ll have a permanent library to revisit whenever a specific client situation or area of study calls for it, so the learning stays practical and accessible long after the course.
Who can gain Certification?
Eligible backgrounds for certification include:
- Degrees: Social Work, Addiction Counselling, Crisis Counselling, Mental Health Nursing, Marriage & Family Therapy, Clinical Psychology, Somatic Therapy, Clinical Hypnotherapy, Art Therapy, etc.
- Diplomas: Counselling (minimum 1 year full-time or equivalent), Community Services, Life Coaching (with client training), Trauma Coaching, Ministry, Pastoral Supervision.
- Other recognised qualifications where you have trained specifically to work with clients under supervision.
Who are these courses for?
Our courses are open to all learners with an interest in understanding childhood developmental trauma. Anyone may enrol in individual courses for personal or professional development, and receive the CEU certificates for each course upon completion of the Portfolio and Unit Exam.
However, certification in Master Practitioner of Complex Trauma (MPCT) requires a professional foundation and supervised client experience. Many professionals come to this field after years of client work in related areas. Because of the depth and responsibility involved, certification typically begins at a diploma level.
Eligible backgrounds for certification include:
- Degrees: Social Work, Addiction Counselling, Crisis Counselling, Mental Health Nursing, Marriage & Family Therapy, Clinical Psychology, Somatic Therapy, Clinical Hypnotherapy, Art Therapy, etc.
- Diplomas: Counselling (minimum 1 year full-time or equivalent), Community Services, Life Coaching (with client training), Trauma Coaching, Ministry, Pastoral Supervision.
- Other recognised qualifications where you have trained specifically to work with clients under supervision.
⚠️ Important: While general certifications can offer a valuable introduction, they do not always provide the depth or supervised practice required. Certification will be awarded to those who meet the prerequisite standards as outlined by IICT accreditation.
What does Certification include?
For each Unit -
- Watch the video or read the transcript.
- Apply your knowledge through the set homework.
- Complete your Unit Portfolio and email to admin@cptsdeducation.com

Who is the Certification through?
The Certification is through the ICTA - www.CPtsdeducation.com. We have accreditation through the International Institute of Complementary Therapists and participants who complete the Master Practitioner of Complex Trauma Coaching are eligible for insurance coverage through IICT, plus listing on their site as being a verified Master Practitioner of Complex Ptsd Neurosynqt Modality. All of this adds to your presence as a professional coach.
How long can I take to complete Certification?
Due to its experiential nature there is a maximum of 3 years to complete Certification
How much time does each Unit Involve?
Videos within each unit are broken up into time manageable intervals. Total time for videos will be no more than 6 hours. Homework is topic specific self reflection daily or topic specific work for working with client needs. Both will make up part of your portfolio. Homework will be no more than an hour a week.
Q: Do these courses train me to help clients process trauma memories?
No. These courses do not focus on reprocessing or revisiting traumatic memories.
The NeuroSynqt™ approach works in the present. It equips professionals to help clients:
-
Strengthen the present-day self so it can remain grounded
-
Use side-door strategies that reconnect fragmented experience without retraumatisation
-
Build internal safety and integration that reduces the influence of past trauma over time
In practical terms, you are not trained to take clients back into trauma memories.
You are trained to work with the brain’s current pathways, supporting gradual integration and increased freedom in daily life.
What time are classes?
There are no set class times. You have access to all the material to fit it into your own time schedule.
Are there worksheets for clients included?
Yes, every unit has a variety of worksheets and ebooks for clients to choose from, as every client has individual needs.
Thank you!
