Resilience Coaching can be an effective tool for trauma survivors because it focusses on building their inner strength, adaptability and coping skills. Resilience coaching enables the DA Survivor/Victim to learn techniques to ‘bounce back’ and helps them to develop skills and mindset needed to overcome their challenges and move forwards with their lives.

 

Resilience coaching can benefit DA Survivors/Victims by:

 

• Teaching them to develop coping skills to manage their emotions and reactions to triggers. This can include mindfulness, relaxation techniques, stress management, reframing thoughts.
   

• Self-Awareness can be improved so that DA Victims/Survivors become more aware of their emotions and thought patterns, recognising and addressing negative self-talk or beliefs that hold them back in life.
   

• Building confidence and self-esteem, especially important for those experiencing feelings of shame, guilt or worthlessness as a result of the domestic abuse they have experienced or been impacted by.
   

• Develop a growth mindset – which helps them to realise that they can learn and grow from their experiences. This can help them to see the trauma that they have experienced as a challenge to overcome rather than something that defines who they are and their lives.
   

• DA Victims/Survivors learn to identify and develop supportive relationships with family, friends, or professionals which helps them to feel less isolated and more empowered to manage their trauma-related issues.

 

Resilience Coaching helps the DA Victim/Survivor to grow and learn how to face the challenges in their lives and feel empowered to move forwards. Our Coaches are fully qualified in Resilience Coaching and also have many years of experience working in organisations supporting those who have experienced trauma.
