VOICE DIALOGUE & TRANSFORMATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY COURSE

 

We advice Dutch readers of this site to read the Dutch version, because there are some differences between the English and Dutch course.

 

In this course you will learn to apply the Voice Dialogue method and the principles of Transformational Psychology in practice.

In addition the course is aimed at deepening the personal process of the participants, which will result in more depth in their work with clients. We will work with deeper layers of consciousness, the awareness of the body and its energy fields and there will be a focus on the development of one’s own spirituality.

To teach all aspects of the work and to enable participants to apply these in practice the ITP, based on more than 30 years of experience in training professionals, has developed this balanced program consisting of 15 training days.

The program is particularly suitable for people who wish to efficiently accompany clients who have questions around the following themes:

  • Questions of meaningfulness
  • Work-life balance
  • Stress and vitality
  • Setting limits
  • Mourning and acceptance
  • Dealing with (self)criticism
  • Coaching skills
  • Vision development
  • Relationship and teamwork
  • Important choices and decisions
  • Healing

 

For whom
Experienced psychologists, coaches, psychotherapists, trainers, mediators and managers. They have at least three years of working experience as a coach/trainer/therapist, they have a strong professional background, have done their psychological homework and they have a developing insight in themselves as an instrument in their profession.

Trainers
Robert Stamboliev MA and co-trainers. On every four participants there will be an extra trainer present during parts of the program. Thus there will be ample opportunity for personal coaching of participants, supervision on their work and individual Voice Dialogue sessions during the program.

Martin Waziers – France, about the course
The holistic approach you took was quite stunning to me and it certainly helped me see Voice Dialogue as powerful. The trainers were very professional and I will gladly recommend people to your sessions; the fact of the matter is you form an excellent balancing act in my view and I could constantly feel the two sides of me responding to your energies combined. If you left nothing clear in the open, it gave a sense of safety all around. Finally, this combination of individual exposure and group dynamics made me feel I was truly taken care of; I have rarely felt that part of a trainee assembly.

Program

We will work with the material that will be brought in by the participants. Questions with situations of one’s own practice can be fully addressed.

PROGRAM
Block 1 – 4 days Voice Dialogue Basics and Energetics
Treatment of the consciousness model and training in Voice Dialogue facilitation techniques. Participants are alternating as subject and object.

Exercises aimed at mapping the energy polarities that are active for each participant, attention for the role of energy in interpersonal contact. Applications in one’s own practice.

Block 2 – 4 days Voice Dialogue and relationship
Treatment of the Voice Dialogue relationship model and training in working with conflicts and issues of collaboration. Introduction to ‘bonding patterns’ and the ‘clearing‘ method. Training in the application of this knowledge in one’s own practice and in training one’s clients – adapted to their specific needs – to improve their communication. Attention for projection, transference and counter transference and how to use these in a positive way: the coach/therapist as an instrument.

Block 3 – 4 days Instinctive energies, the unconscious and more…
Principles of Empowerment. Attention to the body, use of the voice and breathing patterns. Sources of energy in nature. Training in Voice Dialogue as a means to reach empowerment. Working with ‘personal’ and ‘impersonal’ energy, ‘action’ and ‘being’ energy and instinctive energy. Training in channelling these and other energies through an Aware Ego. Integration in one’s own practice.
Attention for the unconscious and working with dreams and archetypes. Further training in energetics. The art of ‘being unburdened’, working from the ‘empty middle’. How to reach a maximum result with minimal interventions.

Didactics
The learning method used is the method of Self Directed Learning. This is connected to the process oriented approach of Voice Dialogue. Participants are stimulated to indicate what they need for there own learning. In order to facilitate this process sequence and parts of the program can be changed if necessary. It does not mean that the organization of this training program does not have a clear picture in mind of what the end result of the program should be.
