Professional Skills, Level 1
Level One of the Hakomi Professional Training offers a thorough grounding in the theories and techniques of Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy through a combination of live teachings and home-study materials.
This training consists of seven modules. Training weekends include a mix of didactic material, experiential exercises, discussion, movement/embodiment exercises, and supervised practice times.
In this training, you will learn how to:
- Provide in-depth psychotherapy using the present moment and live experience as a gateway to unconscious material
- Design and use interventions to access and transform clients’ core models of the self, others and the world
- Track subtle nonverbal communication from the unconscious
- Apply mindfulness-centered, experiential methodologies to support enhanced safety, self-regulation and relationship skills
- Employ somatic techniques to access unconscious material not readily accessible through conversation alone
- Support resistance and psycho-emotional defenses instead of opposing them
- Help clients experience and process regressed states to resolve long-term issues and behaviors
Eligibility:

It’s designed for licensed professionals with limited time who would like to integrate portions of Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy into their practices.
