INTEGRAL THERAPY FOR THERAPISTS - The Psychology of Spirituality (30 CPD points)
Ubud, Bali September 2021
Nic Morrey along with Jonine Lee Gabay, Ketut Arsana and other facillitators tba
If we are passionate about our role as therapists, the discipline requires we do our own deep exploration into subjectivity and radical receptivity. This retreat/training sets up the safe container to open the therapists personal attachment, lopsided intelligence lines of development and counter-transference issues in order to embrace the fullness of our own character development and the permission to become warmly professional as opposed to unnaturally clinically cold.
You will not only come away feeling refreshed, past participants have commented on feeling re-invigorated and excited about re-entering the profession again after confronting for example an inner anxiety "I need to fix it", a voice which comes from attachment trauma, over-burdened with a responsibility to deliver correct technique and formula and keeping up with the latest modalities. You will nevertheless be learning up to date new techniques and formulas on this retreat, but one of many includes knowing the difference between when to apply which technique, how to apply it, and why technique is often secondary to the quality of your presence which recreates an intimacy to heal your clients original attachment trauma.
The commitment to self care is particularly crucial for those in the helping profession. Lush Tropical Ubud offers a sanctuary, a place where culture connects intimately with its land and spirituality. There is so much for Western culture to learn about mental health from this alone. The training includes immersing ourselves within Balinese Hindu culture, including Kecak dance, Jegog music, Ubud art, food markets, visiting temples, eating great organic food, having regular massage, resting and recuperating & meeting like-minded therapists whilst gaining 30 PD points at a very reasonable cost.

Nic has been travelling to Bali for a number of years running group professional development programs ‘The Psychology of Spirituality’, 'Therapy for Therapists' and ‘The Sacred Art of Relating'. His teaching style is influenced by his experiences in Hakomi, Insight Meditation, Mondo Zen, The Diamond Approach, Integral Psychotherapy, Imago & PACT (psycho-neurobiological approach to couples therapy).

Jonine Lee Gabay
Creating a unique synthesis and eclectic blend of traditional counselling and psychotherapy with alternative modalities Jonine and has a strong vision to create greater awareness of the link between unresolved trauma, loss and grief, and personal and global health and wellbeing.

Ketut Arsana
was born in the village of Padang Tegal, Ubud, and grew up in a family of traditional
Balinese shaman healers (Balian). The healing tradition was passed on from his
grandfather and previous ancestors. Ketut developed a more broader and more
universal practice of healing and spiritual knowledge and is the spiritual teacher
of Asram Munivara, a Mahatma Therapist, Master Usada Practitioner, Yoga Instructor
and founder of Ubud Bodyworks Centre, Ubud Aura Retreat Centre, Ashram Munivara
and Santam Bhuana Foundation.
Ketut will lead a Kundalini Tantra Yoga session and a session on Balinese healing which
includes personal healings.
Professional Development:

The training will be compelling for therapists, GP's, psychiatrists, life coaches, social workers, chaplains, palliative carers and students who are interested in learning new ways to be with their clients in either short or long-term care. Delegates are not required to have experience in yoga, meditation or psychotherapy, as the foundations

The psychology of spirituality
As confronting as it may sound, many who enter the healing professions (psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, healers, pastoral workers, life coaches etc) are ambivalent about doing 'the work' on themselves. Whether you've had experience on the couch or not, we will explore many forms of receiving therapeutic support for the therapist from simply getting away to Ubud and confronting a hidden compassion fatigue, receiving physical body work therapies such as massage, walking, yoga and dance, to more traditional therapies such as weekly psychoanalytic Freudian, Jungian and Lacanian approaches, and why you might engage in a practice like this, and be exposed to being held over time as opposed to being fixed quickly. This training/retreat will be challenging, unifying, liberating as well as relaxing, creating a pathway toward safety, passion and vulnerability.
The program is designed for those who professionally give a lot and can recognise the need for self-care and time out. The commitment to self-care is particularly crucial for those in the helping profession. Lush Tropical Ubud offers a sanctuary, a place where culture connects intimately with its land and spirituality. There is so much for Western culture to learn about mental health from this alone. The training includes immersing ourselves within Balinese Hindu culture, resting and recuperating & meeting like-minded therapists whilst gaining PD points at a very reasonable cost.
