Course overview
In the third unit of our program, we will explore the impact of Complex Trauma on the Heart Brain. Our focus will be on understanding the functions of the heart brain and guiding our clients in comprehending their personal experiences. We will provide practical strategies for clients to reintegrate the heart brain into their daily lives. It is fascinating to discover how the heart brain responds even before our head brain, and we will explore the implications this has for us in adulthood.
  • Video time: 3 hours
  • Exams: 1
  • Portfolio:1
Moving forward, we will delve into the profound influence of Mother and Father wounds in our lives, both during childhood and adulthood. We will offer gentle yet practical approaches to support clients in addressing these specific areas of their recovery journey. Our resources include informative graphics to help clients grasp the concept of the mother wound and its intergenerational impact.
Next, our focus will shift to the Father Wound module, where we will help clients recognize and understand the manifestations of a father wound in their lives. We will explore the unconscious father wound that has been carried across generations by sons. Our comprehensive materials, including infographics and slides, will empower clients in their self-reflection and recovery journey, providing them with language and guidance to break free and live a more fulfilling life.
Recognizing and establishing interpersonal boundaries are vital for navigating relationships, particularly within our families, as we embark on an effective recovery journey. We will explore various types of boundaries—physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and sexual—and guide clients in implementing them effectively.
Another important aspect we will address is the fear and difficulty associated with saying no, often rooted in powerlessness experienced during childhood. Before clients can confidently assert themselves and set boundaries, they need to understand the true meaning of becoming assertive. Building this understanding and confidence will enable them to make decisions that shape the future direction of their relationships.
Finally, we will conclude this unit by highlighting the power of Peer-to-Peer Support in conjunction with Complex Trauma Coaching. By integrating this approach, we deepen our understanding and enhance our ability to support our peers effectively. Additionally, we will provide essential information to help them take meaningful steps in their own recovery journeys.

"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. What that means is that I can take as little time or as much time as I need, depending on the topic and how I engage with it. The homework isn't about regurgitating information or memorizing terminology, but rather how we can embody the knowledge while healing from complex trauma ourselves. In that way, I get ah ha moments about how what I learn can support clients.
An incredibly generous professional who has learned so many things about business the hard way, Linda prolifically creates beautiful templates, workbooks, and packettes of information to make it easier for new coaches to run their business. It's as if she deeply desires for each and every person to succeed as they go out there to support their clients in complex trauma recovery. I feel as though I have Linda 24/7 in my back pocket encouraging me, checking in with me, and 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!"

“Linda has a warm, caring attitude with a sense of humour to boot about the effects of CPTSD on someone. Her insight, videos, articles, and support have helped me over humps and I have seen the effect it has had on others too. Linda speaks not only through her education, but also from her own experience. She understands what brings about CPTSD and how to help you address that trauma in a caring, kind, compassionate, and sometimes firm fashion. I highly recommend her if you are looking to heal from trauma you’ve experienced or even if you’re looking to understand more about what CPTSD. Be kind, be understanding, and do yourself a favour and learn from Linda’s materials!.”
