The Initial Trauma Recovery Coaching Certification

Transform Lives While Building a Meaningful Career

Survivors need you.

The Global Need for Trauma Recovery Coaches

Trauma affects millions worldwide, stemming from causes such as abuse, natural disasters, combat, workplace harassment, first responder experiences, oppression, marginalization, or displacement due to war or famine. In the U.S. alone, 700,000 children face abuse annually, with countless others enduring trauma globally.


The Urgent Demand for Trauma-Informed Care

Despite the overwhelming prevalence of trauma, there are shockingly few resources available to support survivors. Many individuals suffering from mental health challenges such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, difficulties with relationships, career struggles, emotional regulation, and self-worth issues lack affordable, high-quality, trauma-informed help.

Survivors need and deserve care that is not only compassionate but also competent and ethical. Trauma Recovery Coaching fills this critical gap.

Trauma Recovery Coaches serve a desperately underserved community. Drawing on our 27 years of experience in the mental health arena, we’ve seen thousands of adult trauma survivors who need support to heal.

Meet the founder and course instructor

The International Association of Trauma Recovery Coaching was founded by Bobbi L. Parish, MA, CTRC-S in the Fall of 2017 and has trained over 900 coaches. A survivor of childhood abuse herself, Bobbi has used her graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy to work with other trauma survivors. In January 2014 she switched from providing therapy to providing coaching, pioneering a profession that had only begun. After experiencing how powerfully coaching helped survivors of trauma heal Bobbi decided to help others become Trauma Recovery Coaches. As one person she could help a limited number of survivors heal. But teaching other coaches and sending them into the world would provide thousands of survivors with high quality, easily accessible help.
