Relational Somatic Psychedelic Therapy Foundation Training
People are stuck in their biology not their psychology
This online training will provide the understanding and cutting edge tools and techniques for trauma resolution and relational repair to heal yourself and others.
This training is for therapists, integration coaches, psychedelic practitioners, doctors, psychiatrists, plant medicine practitioners, healers and individuals who are ready to learn and work within a new paradigm of trauma resolution and healing.
WHAT SETS THIS TRAINING APART FROM OTHERS?
The Sovereignty Method
This training is a radical break from the conventional, outdated, inaccurate theory of psychology.
When you understand that humans are not stuck in their psychology, they are stuck in their biology, it completely changes the approach to therapy.
Most trainings cover the theory of being “trauma informed” but offer almost no applicable methods to actually resolve trauma.
The Sovereignty Method was developed over 25 years of research, practice and application. This innovative Relational Somatic Therapeutic modality lays the groundwork for a new paradigm of healing that gives the tools and cutting edge techniques that are the missing keys to embodiment and true healing.
OVERVIEW OF WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- The new paradigm of healing that mental health disorders are not mental, they arise from a lack of embodiment
- How to accurately diagnose almost any presentations so that the relevant intervention leads to treatment of the root cause
- The difference between emotional states and neural states, and how this affects diagnosis and treatment
- How to recognize relational wounds and traumas, the interventions to resolve them and the necessity of incorporating relational healing into your practice
- Healing the suppression mechanisms with proven techniques for resolving freezes, collapses and shutdowns
- How to create corrective experiences to rewire neural architecture
- How to resolve anxiety and depression
- A whole new set of techniques for efficiently resolving developmental and attachment trauma
- Safety and ethics
- An introduction to Psychedelics and Relational Somatic Therapy (A match made in heaven!)
