During your journey to become a Certified Synergetic Play Therapist/Play Provider you studied nervous system regulation, authenticity and congruency, interoception, emotional age, and so much more to help you become more  masterful at becoming an external regulator for a child and their caregivers. You also learned how to apply these concepts to yourself for your own growth and development in order to heal yourself and develop your capacity for self-regulation. And now it is time to take the next step towards self mastery!

This advanced retreat is not your typical program — it’s a unique personal development experience designed to support you in your ongoing personal journey and deepen your understanding of yourself. Think of it as a deeper unraveling of the question “who am I?”

You’ll spend 4 days live in-person with your fellow Certified SPTers delving deeper into yourself. That’s right! These 4 days are just for you – not for your clients, but for you (… although we do know that any work we do for ourselves inevitably helps our clients).

Go deeper into the development of yourself – Deeper into understanding the body and your own activation patterns – Deeper into the mind – Deeper into integrating your perceptions and working on emotional charges that are in the way of fully becoming an external regulator.

The retreat was a beautiful invitation to be held and grow in community as I explored a deeper understanding and appreciation within myself.” – Kim Buller

A dazzling few days full of paradigm shifts, connection to self and others, and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.” – Machen Champion

Description

Course Details: During this 4 day live in-person program, you will engage with your fellow Certified SPTer delving deeper into yourself.  You will be taken on a journey into the mind and the body in order to gain a deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness between the two. We will flow between didactic teachings and experiential learnings so that you can further empower yourself and reclaim the parts of yourself that have been minimized, hurt, stuck and stunted by trauma and life’s challenges.  You’ll also walk away with a deeper understanding of what Lisa means when she says, “Self Mastery requires regulation of the body and regulation of the mind.”

A unique experience that enabled us to open our minds to a different way of perceiving our world and our brains.” – Kathryn Orfirer
