Verziere sanctum was born through personal and professional experiences where we discovered that creating a safe place where you are allowed to simply be yourself, and open up to the connection of getting back in tune with who you really are brings lasting transformation.
We have sought to create a haven where our clients and students can discover the tools they need to live an inspired life, one beyond past damage and challenges, one where they could step into the light autonomously- with a sense of clarity and strength.
We have sought to create a teaching program based on students gaining from experience, exchanges, feedback and personal development, where they form a solid base from which they can build a stable practice and indepth understanding of how to work with, inspire and support their clients.
Our programs are unique and completely tailored to fit each participant, whether student or client , to be able to follow their rhythm and yet consider how the work here will also continue when they are out again in the 'real' world so that what we build together brings lasting change.
We are selective in our student groups, as we consider it important to understand how to support each of our students in both their personal development and in their learning new techniques to fit in with their own unique backgrounds and characteristics to become a practicing therapist.
We are also selective because we consider this work a deep responsibility, This responsibility is also about holding the space for ourselves in a protected manner which requires building a safe place with our clients and where there is a sacred trust to explore grow and heal. Our style in working with our clients is to connect before, during and after, so that a therapy experience provides another support on their path, one that they can also refer to when undergoing other experiences, where their session and their learning becomes a tool they can use.
We have basic foundation programs in person only, as well as programs with advanced skills and techniques, year round mentoring and training that also include advanced post in person training, zoom review and zoom guest lectures as well as individual meetings for support and continuity on personal development exchanges.
Optional supervised weekends with exchanges for personal development and working with volunteers for feedback and experience blend with reviewing and clarifying the materials and support building your life as a therapist, we offer week long seminars, advanced trainings and workshop projects to bring more possibilities to learn. And we also train and mentor Sanctuary therapists so that you might open a healing centre yourself, and continue mentoring you with support if needed.
We also have supervision certification week where more personal development is included via exchanges and working with volunteers brings stability in practicing with clients and further insight about how you individually practice during debriefing reviews. A newer development is that during supervision certification week students are creating their own unique inductions, we have learned that it can be a great focus for certifying students to develop their own protocols based on their own insights and experiences that can serve in their base and foundation of their evolving practices where having a specialization can support them being their own unique selves as therapists.
One of our principles is that there is always more to learn: so our own therapists and teaching staff always continue to work with their own personal development and studies to learn more skills.
As has been requested over the years:
We always welcome back students who chose to return and repeat courses for more personal development, feedback, experiencing connection with other therapists.
Turning Point Residential Healing Retreat, is an intensive uniquely individualized program created to help people who have chosen to change their lives, transform, heal, and move forward. It is open to anyone who has these desires, wishes, and commitment..There is a team of therapists working with a few participants derived on the unique challenges participants work with. We have had five therapists and four participants, sometimes one person and four therapists. Every situation is unique and as always includes working with mind, body, and spirit.
Even therapists need therapy :
Healing the wounded Healer
Over the years we have welcomed and welcomed back therapists who understand that they need a retreat or respite in order to integrate all they are experiencing with additional support to enhance their process.
We create specific programs for them accordingly to their need to recharge and integrate explore challenges and, sometimes even to include learning and practice new skills and techniques both for their own development and to add to their practices.
Imagine a game that works with memory and bringing unconscious patterns to to conscious mind. A game that helps you to connect to your true Self, to gain insight into what is truly going on in your life, to realise how to transform the things that are holding you back, challenging, or frustrating you, and to discover potential solutions that work for you.
As the game unfolds you work with memory and rediscovering resources that you had forgotten, you gain a new perspective and can create anew understanding about your past, and find your strengths and insights from within.
As you progress through the levels- Physical, Emotional, Mental, Spiritual, you learn more about yourself until by the end of the game you are ready to create your next steps and feel inspired to follow them. At times we also include working with other levels as well: Intuitive, Unity, Love, and Rebirth.
