Rolling Admissions | For the Wounded Healer
Catholic Inner Child Work ™ Professional Training
A trauma-informed, faith-rooted certification for those called to accompany deep healing—without bypassing the body or the soul.
What to Expect:
This is not just a method.
It’s a way of seeing the human person.
In Catholic Inner Child Work, we believe healing happens when:
The wounded child is gently acknowledged
The protective parts are understood rather than shamed
The adult self learns to lead with truth, boundaries, and compassion
And the whole inner world is re-parented under the guidance of the Holy Spirit
As a coach, you are trained to help clients listen to the body, honor lived experience, and remain rooted in the Imago Dei—the unbreakable dignity God placed within them.
As a Catholic Inner Child Coach, you will learn how to:
Help clients recognize inner child wounds without collapsing into them
Understand trauma responses through a nervous-system lens
Guide clients out of shame, people-pleasing, and spiritual confusion
Support healing without replacing therapy or overstepping scope
Hold space that is both pastoral and psychologically grounded
Integrate prayer, discernment, and embodiment without spiritual bypass
❋ Intentional Structure
You will learn Brya Hanan’s Spirit-led Inner Child Work Model to support clients in anchoring, connecting with their child-parts, and restoring their Imago Dei.
❋ A Safe Communtiy
You will meet other like-minded people who long to bring integration to others and who are actively doing intentional healing work.
❋ Expert Facilitation
Led by Brya Hanan, you will have the opportunity to get your questions answered and practice pastoral coaching skills to enhance the way you accompany others.
❋ Lifelong skills and resources

Why this matters:
Many people of faith are longing to heal—but don’t know how to hold together:
Their faith and their trauma
Their prayer life and their body
Their desire for holiness and their need for safety
Catholic Inner Child Coaches help bridge that gap.
They help others remember who they are.
They help restore what trauma interrupted.
They help people become whole—slowly, reverently, and in truth.
If You Feel the Pull…
if you feel both reverence and responsibility—
You’re likely being invited into formation.
