Figure 1. Live teaching sessions bring nervous system science into structured, practice-ready frameworks.
Designed for professionals who support people.
Therapists
Counsellors
Coaches
Healthcare Professionals
Wellbeing Practitioners
Whether you work in private practice, healthcare, education or organisational wellbeing, this certification provides a practical framework that complements your existing expertise.
Why This Certification Exists
Many professionals understand trauma intellectually but lack a practical framework for translating nervous system science into everyday client work.
This certification bridges the gap between research and application.
Rather than replacing your current practice, it strengthens it.

Case Integration
Learning Experience
Live Teaching Sessions
Structured seminars led by Caroline Reed, translating neuroscience into frameworks you can apply in session the following week.
Evidence-Based Learning
Curriculum grounded in peer-reviewed research and fifteen years of clinical observation — not therapeutic trend or anecdote.
Clinical Case Discussions
Supervised case integration sessions where practitioners examine real-world application with peers and faculty.
Practical Application
Structured assignments and implementation exercises designed to embed nervous system language into your existing practice.
Certification Outcomes

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need previous trauma training?
No prior training in trauma or nervous system science is required. The certification is designed to build from foundational principles. You should, however, hold an existing professional qualification and active practice in a relevant field — psychology, therapy, counselling, coaching, healthcare or wellbeing.
Is the certification live or self-paced?
The programme combines live teaching sessions with structured self-paced study. Live seminars provide the primary instructional framework; supplementary materials, readings and implementation exercises are completed between sessions at your own pace.
How long does it take?
The certification is structured as a twelve-month programme. This duration allows sufficient time for deep integration of the material into your existing professional practice, including supervised case discussions and practical application assignments.
Will I receive certification?
Graduates who complete all modules, attend required live sessions and pass the case integration assessment receive TNSI Practitioner Certification — a credential that signals evidence-informed nervous system education to clients, employers and professional networks.
Can I study internationally?
Yes. The programme is designed for international practitioners. Live teaching sessions are delivered online with scheduled times published in advance across time zones. All supplementary materials and resources are accessible globally.
