Hakomi Skills Training

September 12, 2026

Each module in this training series focuses students on one of the six important skill sets in learning Hakomi. In this module, we begin with state of mind skills.

State of Mind - How and Why it Matters

"The therapist will also be very warm, kind and patient. The vulnerability that mindfulness entails, the openness to unconscious material that’s needed, all require a very safe environment, which needs a particularly caring, non-judgmental person. You can expect your therapist to be exactly that."

-Ron Kurtz

Facilitated by Annie Rousseau, Trainer

Saturday, September 12th

10 am to noon and 1pm to 3pm PST.

Please adjust to your time zone.
