Coherence Therapy

Dyad Practicum Sign-Up

Dyad Practicum (DP) consists of four 90-minute teleconference training sessions for two trainees, who conduct a Coherence Therapy session with each other in each meeting under the direct coaching of a Certified Trainer.

Each trainee experiences being the therapist twice and the client twice. This format is uniquely effective for learning the moment-to-moment process and flow of Coherence Therapy by experiencing it, both as the therapist and as the client.

Each DP meeting is recorded and playback is available via secure password to only the two trainees and the Institute's trainers and directors. Listening to one's DP sessions enhances learning significantly.
