Training Center 215 SE 9th Avenue, Suite #203 503-450-9911 The M.E.T.A. / Professional Skills Module 1 is an accelerated training designed for mental health professionals. This Module presents the skills and principles of Hakomi Experiential Psychology, and the unique intervention and treatment strategies which follow from them. Participants will be trained in the precise moment-to-moment elegance of working with mindfulness in psychodynamic psychotherapy. In addition, because Hakomi is dedicated to the aliveness of both client and therapist, great emphasis is placed both on the attachment-based nature of the therapeutic relationship, and on the ground of being from which the therapist works.

Training Center 215 SE 9th Avenue, Suite #203 503-450-9911 Imagine your ideal self, the peaceful you, the powerful you, the you without shame or doubt or conflict. Imagine yourself in love, in love with yourself and the world, secure, connected and whole, at ease with yourself and others, steady and free... Whatever gap exists between this ideal you and the you who carries yourself through your days, this training offers the opportunity to examine how you have created yourself, and to embrace a fuller, more authentic Self, whether alone or in connection to others. We will use lectures & discussion to outline a sophisticated map of the Self. We will also engage in uniquely designed experiential exercises to explore the inner territories of the beliefs and habits that govern your relationships to yourself and others. And, through safe and carefully led group encounters, we will help you study and challenge yourself in relationship - in the moment - to bring yourself as far forward into the ideal as you are able.

Training Center 215 SE 9th Avenue, Suite #203 503-450-9911 Shame is perhaps the most painful of all emotions. It is at the root of both ?the inner critic? and perfectionism. It binds with other emotions, such as anger and fear, so that is often hard to detect. Also, revealing shame can be in itself shameful. For many clients who don?t get better in therapy, shame ? unacknowledged and not worked through ? is the primary factor. In this workshop, we will learn how to help our clients recognize shame, work through it and move on. We will become more sensitive to the shaming often implicit in the therapy situation and learn how to counter shame in therapy. We will be able to help clients separate feelings of shame from other emotions. And we?ll learn how to take clients back to early shaming situations and reverse the outcome ? helping clients move their energy powerfully outward rather than turn it against themselves.
