This group will be limited to 8 participants and will meet monthly online starting on the 13th of September 2024 until the 13th of June 2025 online one Friday per month, from 9am-11am Pacific (Vancouver) Time.
We welcome counsellors, psychologists, social workers, and Hakomi practitioners who value and understand the benefits of bringing a somatic approach to their therapeutic work with clients. Regardless of your experience level of working with somatic methods, you can expect to be held in a kind, warm learning environment where we can explore together.
