The Centre of Excellence in Child Trauma

The Centre of Excellence in Child Trauma C.I.C, is dedicated to empowering parents and professionals who care for children affected by adverse childhood experiences and neurodivergent characteristics. Our mission is to create a supportive community for parents and supporting professionals where you can find the resources, knowledge, and support they need to help their children thrive.
At COECT, we offer a wide range of services designed to support both parents and professionals:
- Help and Support: Our therapeutic services support families who require assistance with trauma-informed/therapeutic parenting as well as those needing relief from compassion fatigue symptoms. We also assist families on the edge of care and those families experiencing child-on-parent violence. We can provide support packages which are designed to provide compassionate assistance to families on the verge of crisis, offering a supportive hand during difficult times.
- Training: Our comprehensive training courses cover topics such as Therapeutic and Trauma-Informed Parenting, Compassion Fatigue, and Strategies to Manage Behaviour. Our training is available both in-person and online.
- Qualifications: We provide a variety of trauma-informed, accredited, customised qualifications with NCFE CACHE, ranging from level 1 to level 4 for parents and supporting professionals.
- Resources and Peer Support: We provide access to a wealth of training, peer support, and well-being resources. This includes research, articles, and practical tools designed to help families and professionals support children effectively. Additionally, we offer a community where parents and caregivers can connect through our support groups called TIPS Meet-Ups. Here, you can share experiences and build relationships. Our goal is to create a network of support and understanding through our Trauma-Informed Parents Hub membership.
