Our training programmes go beyond just acquiring knowledge and learning new skills. They provide a journey into understanding the underlying causes of physical and mental health complaints and diagnosed disorders, and experiencing who we are as human beings behind the veil of our adaptations and behavioural strategies.
Our trainings are suitable for professionals from a variety of backgrounds such as psychotherapists, counsellors, coaches and other mental health professionals, social workers and educators, doctors, nurses and other medical professionals, physiotherapists and other body workers, first responders, etc.
In addition to professional trainings, we offer seminars and workshops to impart practical, applicable knowledge and support personal growth. Our seminars and workshops are designed for individuals looking to deepen their understanding of themselves and develop specific skills.
Currently we organize in-depth professional trainings (for certification):
01
A comprehensive psychodynamic and body-oriented approach to treating the consequences of developmental and relational trauma.
02
SE™ is designed to work with overwhelming life experiences. The aim is to support the self-regulating capacity of the nervous system.
03
A comprehensive psychodynamic and body-oriented approach to treating the consequences of developmental and relational trauma.
Supporting Greater Connection
We see ourselves as part of the emerging global trauma-informed, somatically-oriented movement. Our trainings, seminars and workshops provide an opportunity to gain new knowledge, skills and learn from each other. In that way we contribute to a more connected planet with less individual and collective suffering.

Craniosacral resonance is based on the “breath of life” concept. The breath of life is a universal creative principle which sustains and connects all life functions within all living organisms, including humans. An experienced craniosacral practitioner feels the expression of the breath of life as slow, rhythmic motion, similar to the tide. With a gentle, tuned and specific positioning of the hands, the practitioner listens to and supports the forces of the breath of life in their different expressions, thus enabling the body to access its own self-healing and regenerative resources.

Three-year training
SE™ is designed to work with overwhelming life experiences. The aim is to support the self-regulating capacity of the nervous system. As a result of a traumatic situation, our nervous system can get stuck in a state of alarm. SE™ enables us to find a state of relaxation from the permanent inner state of alertness. Attention at SE™ is not so much focused on the event, but primarily on the body's reaction to this traumatic experience. Through holistic sensing it is possible to release the energy bound in the nervous system without remembering the cause. Repeated reactivation and re-experiencing of traumatic memories is not necessary.
