intergenerational trauma Specialist certification
For A Very Limited Time
Become the go-to expert on intergenerational trauma in your practice or agency with the Courageous Way - Intergenerational Trauma Program!
Most therapists are not trained in identifying, assessing, and treating intergenerational trauma. These skills are critical for anyone working with complicated families impacted by intergenerational trauma.
The Intergenerational Resilience Method is the most efficient and effective system of interventions
to transform interegenerational trauma into family resilience.
The Courageous Way - Intergenerational Trauma Program
Three Phase Intervention for Intergenerational Resilience
Phase 1: Parent Coaching
Phase 2: Complex Trauma Intervention for the Parent
Phase 3: Child & Teen Trauma Intervention & Family Resilience
Calm the family nervous system through parent coaching. This phase provides safety and stabilization in the family system. Interventions are based on relational neuroscience, Polyvagal Theory, and child/teen development. The skills also begin to address the parent's unresolved trauma by increasing capacity for self-regulation.
Unresolved complex trauma in the caregiver is addressed through a Polyvagal framework. The intervention is a six step process designed to address neuroception and develop a resilience based narrative. When the caregiver's trauma is resolved, there is greater capacity to be effective and present with their children or teens.
When the caregiver has greater effectiveness in parenting, the child or teen's trauma is addressed in the context of intergenerational resilience. Interventions are based on developmental stages and additional strategies for caregivers are also included. Interventions for building resilience withing the family system are also included.
Here's What You'll Get:
Three phase intervention system that calms the chaos in the family, addresses the caregiver's unresolved trauma, and addresses the children/teens trauma all while building family resilience.
Intake & referral forms and an ssessment system to determine the intergenerational impacts on the therapy process, parent-child relationship, and the child or teen.

The Courageous Way - Intergenerational Trauma Program will transform your frustration and fear of working with complicated families into being an INTERGENERATIONAL TRAUMA SPECIALIST !
Why You Can No Longer Wait to Develop These Skills:
Intergenerational trauma rates have risen with the degree of challenging world events we have experienced. Therapists working with complicated families MUST develop these skills to meet the increased demands
Therapists are experiencing extreme levels of burnout from the current level of need for therapy services and trauma.
Effective and efficient interventions for complicated cases are required to feel confident and keep going with record high demands for services.
Improves client engagement, rentention in therapy, and outcomes.
This assessment and intervention system supports the therapist to CONNECT with families in a way that increases engagement and commitment to therapy.
Frustration with complicated cases is common if there isn't a process and intervention strategy to address common pitfalls when working with intergenerational therapy.
High turn over rates in therapist caseloads causes more burnout and a lack of confidence.
Therapists struggling with burnout, high client turnover, and frustration feel less effective and consider leaving the profession due to their dissatisfaction.
Therapists who leave the profession may have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for their education, certifications, and trainings. Leaving your education behind is a costly lesson when there is a better solution!
Piecing together information from books, courses, and trainings is cumbersome and rarely results in a streamlined, efficient process or framework.
Nagging self-doubt and imposter syndrome plagues therapists. It leads to greater attempts to learn more and more skills...and also more burnout!
After years of shutting down and feeling burned out, therapists can become frustrated with clients
or complicated families.
Become a Certified Intergenerational Trauma Specialist...and put an end to burnout!

What Others Have To Say:
"I have consulted with Barbara to help me bring the Polyvagal Theory and the Safe and Sound Protocol into my private practice. I’ve been working with trauma my whole career (30 plus years) and I know a solid, and approachable professional when I meet one! Her enthusiasm and passion for her work is contagious. After I watched one of her recent videos I told her she reminds me of everyone’s favorite teacher. If you have a chance to work with her, don’t pass it up."
-Carol J S Nickerson, LICSW, CFT
Why can't I just piece it together myself??
The mistake most therapists make is trying to piece together books, courses, and trainings to have sufficient skills in treating a certain population. There are so many pitfalls with intergenerational trauma that it would take every therapist years to figure it out on their own . You don't need to piece together interventions that MIGHT work. The Courageous Way is the result of 20 years of clinical experience, thousands of hours of learning, and over fifteen years of extensive application of interventions for this population. For 12 payments of $197 or $1997 (pay in full), you can have access to my system, framework, and strategies in The Courageous Way.

Meet Your Trainer & Mentor
Barbara Woods, Ph.D.
I love to teach therapists and parents to crack the code of a child's behavior and to become agents of change by harnessing the power of resilience.
I’m a psychotherapist in private practice and I train other therapists, teachers, and parents how to harness the power of relationships to support children who have difficult behaviors related to trauma and attachment disruptions. My private practice, Willow’s Bend Counselling Centre, Inc., is located in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada. My clinical work tends to gravitate towards children who have experienced trauma or attachment disruptions. I love to crack the code on their behavioral difficulties and support the adults in these children’s lives too.
Through my private practice and community of over 7,500 psychotherapists, I’ve learned the importance of developing skills based on using interventions from disciplines like relational neuroscience, Polyvagal Theory, child development, and mindful parenting. These skills were the foundation to building a 7-figure practice in a small rural community.
I'm so excited that you've found The Courageous Way Intergenerational Trauma Program! You are on your way to transforming intergenerational trauma into family resilience for your clients!
