In the first seven meetings, Level 2 of the Hakomi Professional Skills Training offers an in-depth understanding of Character Theory, a somatic map of our core responses to the basic life themes of safety and being, support, intimacy and authenticity, freedom, worth and belonging. Students will learn to work with the Sensitivity Cycle, Hakomi's dynamic diagnostic map, as a means to tailor interventions to the particular needs of their clients. The last three weekends of the series focus on integrating the Hakomi maps and skills presented in Levels 1 and 2. Practice sessions with supervision and feedback from staff are integral to this part of the training.

Full Description:
Designed for those individuals who have completed a Level One training in Hakomi Experiential Psychotherapy, Level Two focuses on the map of character theory and practice. Character refers to early learning and adaptation processes. As children, we imprint experiences that shape our neural development in ways that result in an enduring set of beliefs and perceptions. These beliefs, or implicit models, unconsciously organize our behavior resulting in automatic and habitual strategies for living that are both adaptive and limiting.
Level Two of Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychology continues to develop the skills and practices learned in Level One, introduces new theoretical maps to help refine participants' application of the Hakomi method, and includes extensive advanced supervision. Satisfactory completion of Level One is the prerequisite for acceptance into Level Two. This level focuses on in-depth coverage of the Hakomi method's conceptualization of character theory, an understanding of the organization of personality and character into patterns that reveal developmental and cultural wounding. Participants are guided in creating customized strategies to help attune to and access clients' core material, offering reparative experiences to help heal developmental trauma/attachment wounds and cultural wounds.
