Mindful & Somatic Self-Discovery and Transformation
Hakomi Somatic Coaching Certificate Program (HSC) is a professional program that integrates core Hakomi methodology into a coaching framework.
This online training will focus on developing mindful and somatic awareness practices to deepen the client’s personal process. You will enhance both your presence and your skillset as a transformational coach.
Participants will expand their relational skills through Hakomi methods that gently but powerfully invite emotional self-discovery. Supported by the coach, clients will engage in a cycle of transformation towards clarity, action, and deeper satisfaction in their work and in their lives.
This training is suited for established coaches as well as new coaches wanting to train in somatics and mindfulness.

Here is how the ICF (International Coach Federation) defines coaching:
Partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.
ICF coaches see clients as the experts of their lives—naturally creative, resourceful and whole.
Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment. Coaches will work towards your set goals and overcome the challenges that are intrapersonal. The coaching process will help develop self awareness and increase the capacity to take meaningful actions.
Coaches view their clients as the experts of their lives with inner resources that are naturally creative and capable to live a thriving life.
How is Coaching different from Psychotherapy?
Both coaching and psychotherapy support clients in navigating the normal, and sometimes painful, ups and downs of the human condition. Both professions can help clients gain more clarity, take action, and feel more satisfied in their work and lives.
Psychotherapists have an additional role and responsibility as mental health clinicians. Psychotherapists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of clinical mental health conditions that are outside the scope of coaching.
Therefore, an ethical coach must understand the parameters of who is and who is not a good candidate for their practice and have a network of people with whom they can consult and make referrals.
HSC is a 40 Hour live online program. Teaching will be both didactic and experiential. There are practice groups in between each module.Please note that the curriculum is subject to change.
