Hakomi Experiential Psychotherapy is a gentle, respectful method that allows you to access deep, core material, opening the possibility for awareness and transformation. Hakomi Professional Trainings are offered regularly. The aim of the training is to turn out high quality, caring therapists who are as dedicated to fully knowing their own process as they are to the understanding of others. Composed of memories, images, beliefs, neural patterns, and deeply held emotional dispositions, this material creates and maintains our images of self and of our culturally acquired world. It shapes the styles, habits, behaviours, perceptions, physical postures and attitudes which define us as individuals. Each Hakomi training teaches the entire curriculum of the Hakomi Method as outlined by the Hakomi Institute. Some of this core material supports our being who we wish to be, while some of it, learned in response to difficult situations, continues to limit us. Hakomi allows the client to distinguish between the two, and to modify willingly any material which restricts his or her wholeness. In therapy, we first work to build a relationship which maximises safety and the cooperation of the unconscious. With that relationship, we help the client focus on and study how he or she organises experience. To do this, we establish and use mindfulness, a distinct state of consciousness characterised by a surrender to and acceptance of the happenings of the moment, a gentle sustained focus of attention inward, a heightened sensitivity and the ability to observe and name the contents of consciousness. In psychotherapy, says Hakomi founder Ron Kurtz, nothing is as useful as mindfulness. hakomi.com.au Goals of the training are fourfold. First, a deep understanding of the principles of the Hakomi Method and the ability to work with them. The Science of Love Creating Connections that Heal Second, an understanding of the organisation of personality and character and the ability to use this understanding with discrimination. Third, an understanding of the various maps of the therapeutic process and the ability to use these maps and Hakomi techniques precisely and appropriately. Fourth, an understanding of one’s own personality as an instrument for therapy. The methods of Hakomi are appropriate and effective in all kinds of therapeutic situations, such as relationships, family, movement and body work, but find their full potential in the process of growth, both personal and transpersonal.
