CoECT Australia
Trauma-informed support for Australian parents, carers and professionals
You don't have to navigate therapeutic parenting alone.
CoECT is coming to Australia, bringing practical, trauma-informed support, learning and connection to families, carers and professionals across the country.
Whether you're an adoptive parent, foster parent, kinship carer, birth parent, professional or simply supporting a child who has experienced trauma, loss or adversity, CoECT offers practical tools, trusted resources and a community of people who understand.

Connecting in Australia
CoECT Australia isn't just about online support.
We're also creating opportunities for Australian parents, carers and professionals to connect in person.
Australian CoECT Meet-Up
We'll be bringing our community together for an Australian meet-up — a chance to meet others who understand, share experiences, ask questions and connect in a supportive, informal environment.
Details coming soon.
Who is CoECT Australia for?
CoECT is here for anyone supporting children who may have experienced trauma, loss, disrupted attachment or adversity.
This includes:
Adoptive parents
Practical, trauma-informed approaches for understanding and responding to your child's needs.
Foster parents
Support and resources for some of the most challenging moments of fostering.
Kinship carers
Understanding behaviour, building connection and finding practical ways forward.
Birth Parents and families
Realistic support when parenting feels overwhelming or you simply need someone who understands.
Supporting Professionals
Resources, learning and practical approaches for people working alongside children and families.
You don't have to do this alone
At CoECT, we believe that parents, carers and professionals need support too.
Our approach is practical, compassionate and grounded in lived experience. We don't expect you to have all the answers. We want to help you understand what may be happening underneath a child's behaviour and find realistic ways to move forward.
