This seminar is an open discussion on theory as it relates to practice, based on a list of essential topics and the needs and interests of the trainees.
This is an in-depth look at problems in facilitation, and how to deal with clients who are not progressing or becoming less functional. Using case histories, a
number of causes and solutions will be addressed, including the effects of early or shock-level trauma.
This seminar will look at the practicalities of positive and negative transference, and how to assist the client in resolving projected feelings. The destabilizing effects of extreme transference will be confronted, and how to prevent or work through therapist counter-transference.
Primal Integration can extend beyond the content of sessions into the entire fabric of the client's life. This seminar looks at the complexities of continued contact, home exercises and activities, and the art of integrating primal insights into practical life choices.
The initial exploratory contacts with the client are of vital importance to the outcome of the work. This opportunity to gather pertinent information, make assessments, consider approaches - and to ultimately accept the client - is explored in detail.
Prenatal traumas from conception to birth can have devastating effects on all aspects of life. The theory, diagnosis, and therapeutic treatment of prenatal
cellular consciousness will be explored in depth.
The practical aspects of starting and maintaining a Primal Integration practice will be outlined - facilities and equipment, records and accounts, programming, client scheduling, public relations, advertising,
community outreach, and professional networking.
In family, group, and couples therapy, primal work is complicated by interpersonal conflicts. Useful approaches for primal conflict resolution will be
discussed, demonstrated and practiced.
This seminar is a continuation of important topics introduced during the Initial training. A balanced approach to sexual issues and ethics is crucial for client progress and the maintenance of a viable practice.
Classic primal groups are far more dynamic than any other type of therapy group and require exceptional therapist organization, intuition, and teamwork.
The theory and practical aspects of running groups
will be outlined in preparation for the full-day
intensive group on Saturday.
Trainee papers on primal practice will be reviewed by the leaders and circulated amongst all trainees. This forum is an opportunity to share feedback and discuss the valuable subject matter covered in the papers.
Clients of the center will participate in a group
intensive supervised by the leaders and run exclusively by the trainees. From the starting go-round to the
final wrap-up, this eight hour marathon is a unique opportunity for trainees to experience the responsibility and reality of primal integration practice - with
professional support and critique.
