Current news

New course for 2012.

Our new advanced couple counselling training program, "Steps to a Mindful Therapist" begins early in 2012.

This course explores the new paradigm in couple work, one that emphasises moment by moment mindfulness, nonverbal resonance, therapist and client selves and the larger Self. Drawing on the results of neurobiology and various somatic psychotherapies, the focus will be on the mindful couple therapist, with experiential components designed to develop and assist therapist sensitivity, compassion and equanimity. This course is practically and experientially focused.

This is an advanced course, and requires current relationship counselling experience and completion of our Core Concepts in Couple Counselling program or equivalent.
