Thu, May 29 - Mon, Jun 2. Shadow Constellations Training for Therpists, Facilitators and Teachers, +972528551454
*Shadow Constelations* A Compassionate Journey of Healing and Connection. Boulder, CO 29 May - 2nd June In the Shadow Constellation module we will delve into the unseen forces which shape our lives, exploring the hidden motivations and desires that drive us beneath the surface of awareness, focusing on the professional relationships with our clients and students. As therapists and facilitators, we learn to craft safe, nurturing environments where profound healing and growth can flourish. Through this transformative journey, we discover how to turn what triggers us in other people into bridges that connect us more deeply with ourselves. We transform judgment, aversion, and annoyance into pathways for reconnection with the parts of us that lie in the shadows. We will learn to trace the roots of our Shadows, and heal the imprints left by the trauma's of the past, be it personal, ancestral or collective. Guided by compassion, self-awareness, and a deep understanding of the complexities of therapeutic relationships, we navigate this journey with trauma-awareness and empathy. Over the past decade, I have shared these essential teachings, believing them to be vital for every therapist, teacher and facilitator seeking to becoming better at fostering meaningful connections and profound healing in a safe way.

Coaching in a New Key: An Applied Existential Approach

Sat, Oct 18 - Sat, Dec 19 2026

Betty Cannon and Robyn Chauvin, BPI - 303 494 0393

This class offers a thorough 60-hour certification training in Applied Existential Coaching. At the request of students who took our first class in 2022, we have added much more experiential work and breakout practice so that you leave with a thorough grounding in basic principles and interventions. If you have found that you like working online and would like to add coaching to your repertoire, this may be the class for you. Unlike therapy, which is limited by state laws, coaching can be done across state lines or actually anywhere in the world. But it is important to know the difference and to have training in coaching if you are going to do this legally and ethically. The training we are offering is an in-depth approach to existential coaching. We will talk about principles and techniques, demonstrate them, show examples from videotapes, introduce experiential exercises, and ask you to practice the approach with other students. The workshop offers a thorough grounding in theory and fundamental interventions along with a taste of what existential relational and group coaching look like. Both coaches and therapists are welcome. Participants completing the training will receive a 60-hour Certificate of Study in Applied Existential Coaching.
