Module 1, Calgary AB: Transformational Psychotherapeutics Practitioner Training

CALGARY, AB

April 25-29, 2025

Training Schedule: 9am to 6pm, daily (unless otherwise stated in training logistics emails)

 

This training is designed for practitioners who wish to deepen their understanding and skill in working with efficient and effective somatic practices. Located in the heart of Calgary, our in-person sessions offer a space for growth, learning, and connection. Embark on this educational adventure and discover how to facilitate healing with a creative and experimental approach.

In our first module, we will explore what it is to adopt a curious, experimental mindset and approach with your clientele in order to re-engage creative and transformative learning. We will learn to constructively explore thought and belief, affect, behaviour, gesture, posture, sensation, relational interaction, boundaries and more to carefully work with and foster resolution in a broad array of client presentations.  We will also look at numerous methods for effective integration of the transformation that occurs within our client sessions.

Within this set of trainings, you will:

  • learn an elegant therapeutic process model to expand your effectiveness and scope of practice
  • learn how to incorporate an increasing variety of somatic psychotherapeutic theories, principles, and practices into your facilitation 
  • deepen your ability to track a client's nervous system and respond accordingly to support them in staying within their "window of tolerance"
  • continue fostering respectful, learning-based therapeutic relationships with clientele as you enhance your capacity to listen, communicate, and experiment effectively for therapeutic purposes 
  • learn methods to safely, gently, and slowly bring awareness to outdated, habituated belief systems in both mind and body and support their clarification and transformation
  • expand your understanding of resourcing and the tools and techniques that can be shared with clients to support their self-regulation
  • cultivate the therapeutic usage of mindfulness and a wide variety of other tools and practices such as:
    • contact statements and acknowledgements
    • affirmations, inquiries, and probes
    • simple movement practices, positional changes, and takeovers
    • alternative breathing practices and vocal toning
    • proximity and boundaries explorations    
  • explore the nuances of transformation and develop more ways to support the integration of new possibilities, insights, somatic shifts, and behaviours
  • cultivate the capacity to be directive without compromising sensitive listening or the spirit of experimentation 
  • develop a wide variety of tools and practices 
  • personally receive these practices so that you can then utilize them from a place of experience with clients. 

Entrance into these modules requires the following prerequisites:

You are currently practicing and/or actively training in therapeutic modalities that involve supporting clients in navigating and resolving mental-emotional health stresses. Ideally, you have already cultivated some capacity to navigate this territory with others in conscious, compassionate, curious conversation and are open to others supporting you in similar ways.
