The Inner Child and Me: Healing the Relationship Within


EVERGREEN The Inner Child and Me: Healing the Relationship Within

Healing begins when you learn to care for the parts of yourself that were once left behind.

This course is an invitation to rebuild your relationship with your inner child—the one who still longs to be seen, understood, and valued.

Drawing from Tim Fletcher’s teachings on complex trauma recovery, you’ll explore what it means to reparent yourself with compassion and consistency. Through guided reflection and practice, you’ll learn to recognize wounded parts of yourself, replace criticism with care, and rewrite the beliefs that once defined your worth.

As you move through the lessons, you’ll begin responding to yourself with warmth instead of judgment and rediscover the curiosity and confidence that trauma once silenced. This course is about loving what was never given love before.

    • Introduction

  • This lesson explores how Complex Trauma leads to self-abandonment—hiding emotions, needs, or traits that once felt unsafe to show. You’ll learn to recognize the moments when your authentic self was silenced and how those buried parts still echo in adulthood.

    Lesson • Journal • Video

  • Many people with Complex Trauma learn to disconnect from the child within; the one who still carries unmet needs, fears, and longings. This module guides you in recognizing that child’s voice and learning how to meet it with empathy instead of avoidance. Through visualization, awareness, and reparenting practices, you’ll begin building trust with the self that has been waiting for safety all along.

    Lesson • Journal • Video

  • The stories we told ourselves as children—“I’m not enough,” “I have to be perfect,” “It’s my fault”—once kept us safe. Now, they keep us small. In this module, you’ll uncover and release those old shame-based beliefs, learning how to validate your inner child’s pain while replacing false narratives with grounded truth and self-compassion.

  • To survive, many of us learned to wear masks: the caretaker, the achiever, the rescuer, and others. This module introduces seven inner child archetypes and explains how each one developed to protect you. Through guided reflection, you’ll learn to thank these roles for their service and begin freeing your authentic self from the patterns that once defined you.

    Lesson • Journal • Video

  • Healing the inner child is ultimately about belonging to yourself again. In this closing module, you’ll explore how to integrate your healed parts, practice daily reparenting, and sustain this work within safe relationships. The focus shifts from surviving to living; learning to see yourself not through old trauma, but through love, consistency, and truth.

    Lesson • Journal • Video

  • The bonus section offers a rich library of books, talks, music, films, and somatic practices that deepen emotional understanding and nurture the reparenting process. It’s a companion guide for lifelong growth—inviting you to weave what you’ve learned into daily life through creativity, reflection, and connection with others who walk the same path.
