ABOUT THE MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
DEEPEN AND REFINE YOUR SKILLS AS A SOMATIC PRACTITIONER
Our Somatic Practitioner Mentorship program is designed to offer you a container of support as you develop your skills as a Somatic Practitioner or Therapist. It will also help guide and enhance your personal process and practice of the tools you have gained in either your Certificate program with The Embody Lab, or other somatic-based programs.
If you want to deepen your understanding of the practice of somatic therapies, refine your skills as a practitioner, and enhance your capacity to offer this life-changing work to others… this program is for you!
The Fall Mentorship program will run live and online from November 14th, 2024 - April 10th, 2025.
The mentorship program includes:
Six 3-hour mentoring sessions.
Four 90-minute master level Embodied Practitioner Skills workshops to deepen and enhance your practitioner skills.
Community Connection session led by Dr. Scott Lyons.
Each 3-hour mentoring session will include:
Part 1: Live demonstration of working with a client from a esteemed mentor, followed by a deconstruction of that session, analysis of techniques used, and question and answer
Part 2: Guidance for up to four case studies per session with three of our esteemed mentoring faculty supporting the practitioners
All sessions will be recorded and participants will receive lifetime access to the recordings at no extra cost.
