Workshops by Alé Duarte
Ale’s development of Somatic Experiencing (SE), focusing on integration rather than trauma, is excitingly effective. All those who have witnessed his work in Sichuan and Hong Kong… were deeply touched, amazed, and have great appreciation for his natural instinct in gently leading towards integration. Those who have experienced his work really benefitted personally and professionally. You can watch short clips on:
or
Mentioned in Peter Levine's own website "Our good friend Ale Duarte, who's truly inspirational work leading trauma disaster teams after the Thailand Tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, Sichuan Province, and now in Japan, was recognized and profiled by Japanese News Service NHK.
Ale is a gifted SE practitioner, and one of the most amazing people ever."
Please contact him directly well-in advance to book for personal sessions: ”
A. Somatic Integration for Therapists, Counselors and Educators
March 31st & April 1st , 2012 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Fee: $2000. Priests and Sisters and Ale's alumni in HK can join A. at half-fee.
No pre-requisites: for beginners and those who want to deepen their therapeutic skills.
As one of the most fundamental skills in any somatic practice, “tracking”, allows us to monitor our own sensations and guide our clients through their process by facilitating autonomic nervous system resolution. As a result of traumatic or stressful events, the nervous system becomes over-activated and can trigger dysfunctional behavior such as anger, panic, hyperactivity, apathy, and an inability to bond with others, as well as somatic complaints such as headaches, stomach-aches, dizziness, etc.
These hands-on, interactive workshops will provide new insights and effective tools for working with human’s natural ability to heal and promote integration.
Participants will:
-Learn skills to use the concept of ‘tracking’ to deal with physical and ‘somatic’ symptoms.
-Learn how to use body language and facial expression during the session with more accuracy
-Refine the use of language as a way to deepen the client’s in their somatic experience.
-Learn how to reestablish the natural cycle of somatic arousal, discharge and integration.
-Find new ways to listen through integrate a Somatic perspective into their practice.
B. “Advanced Somatic Tracking Skills” & Master demo class practice.
April 6th--8th, 2012 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Fee: $3300. (If you just join for 2 days: $2400)
Both A & B: $5000. (A+ 2 days of B: $4200.)
Open tothose who have prior exposure to Somatic Experiencing or Ale’s workshops.
Now that you know how to use “tracking”, it’s time for deeper integration
As one of the most fundamental skills in any somatic practice, “tracking” allows us to monitor our own sensations and guide our clients through heir process by facilitating autonomic nervous system resolution. Now that you already know how to use “tracking” and work with the “vortex”, it is time to go beyond it and reach the organismic realm for deeper Integration.
As therapists, how do we guide our clients into their inner world—and bring them back safely? What body language cues do we notice that may be cues for therapeutic intervention? How do we rescue our clients from the “traumatic vortex” and promote discharge, all while creating trust in the therapeutic relationship. This workshop will help you explore your own answers to these questions based on your experience and on tracking the client through their “experiential reality.”
PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN:
- To see and track the Systemic Breathing. (Ale’s biggest shortcut!!)
- To use the ‘multi-tasking mind’ and Alé’s concept of “windows” to create ‘flow’ in the system,
- To prepare the client for deeper experiences, and to assess natural “resources”.
- To refine the use of language as a way to deepen the client’s experience.
- How to feel ease with “intuitive tracking” during the process.
Both workshop sessions will be video-taped for limited educational uses. Demo subjects will be given a soft copy of your session.
