Education & Training
Aim: To deliver education and training about spiritual experiences.
I plan to offer introductory short talks and one day workshops on spiritual crisis/emergency. These are being developed based on my knowledge of transpersonal psychology, therapeutic training, experience of peer-support, and feedback from experiencers. Please see below for further details.
All talks and workshops can be delivered online or face-to-face. I offer cost options including discounts for unwaged attendees. If you would like to arrange a talk or workshop for your organisation, please contact me to discuss.
