I love the safe & gentle way Maci has supervised me in this group. She has deep wisdom and her feedback supports developing essential resources.

Melissa combines heart, soul, sensitivity, and wisdom in a marvelously gifted way. She embodies the Hakomi process and the principles and teaches by word, action, interaction and being.

I was pleasantly surprised by the positive impact this group had on my work. It is the supervision group that I have been looking for. I hope you do more of them.

COURSE OVERVIEW

Whether you are a recent graduate of a Comprehensive Training or already a Certified Hakomi Therapist, this unique training will deepen your skills and help you bring an experiential and somatic focus into your practice.

In this fully experiential immersion course, Melissa and Maci will provide in-depth personalized feedback on your current integration of the method. In addition, we will help you explore your own character leanings and adaptive strategies, and uncover how these both support and hinder your work with clients.

This is a rare chance to receive supervision from two veteran trainers who have decades of experience teaching all levels of Hakomi Training. Whatever your level of proficiency, you will leave with a clear set of next steps toward mastery that integrates your personal style. Though not designed exclusively as a certification group, some people may be certified through this training.

The schedule of this professional development opportunity is designed to give you plenty of time to explore the many gems of this magical Mediterranean island. Explore the charming seaside villages of Deia and Valdemossa, or the beaches and museums of Palma, during the full day off mid-week. Tour local sites, including the Port of Soller, or hike the many trails during our generous mid-day breaks.

The structure of this 6.5 day program includes whole group time with both trainers, and subgroups with each of the trainers. You will have multiple opportunities to work in a small group with direct supervision and to videotape your work for future review. Any teaching of content in this course will arise from the sessions and group work.

I can’t say enough about how much I value having had the opportunity to be taught by Melissa. She is such an inspiration to me and has taught me immensely…She is exceptional as a teacher and therapist and I feel blessed to have known her.

Maci is an extraordinary person and an illuminating supervisor. She has a unique ability to foster the personal growth of the therapist, while addressing the many technical facets of the Hakomi Method. She does this with immense kindness, deep respect and wisdom.

You are amazing. Thanks for your precision and clarity, one of my favorite things about you. You really go for it when you see it and for me that’s a big gift. Really appreciate the feedback and close engagement.

THE INSTRUCTORS

Maci Daye co-developed the first virtual supervision classes for Hakomi students and graduates, leading seven of them with Morgan Holford for participants in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe.

For Maci, supervision is where it all comes together through the interweaving of the method, personal process and JOOTS. Learning edges often reveal the way participants not only do therapy, but also how they live their lives. Students see how much of the work they’ve integrated and how refining their skills requires growing their personhood. This adds a richness and poignancy to the process that surpasses simply honing their skills.

For Melissa, advanced supervision trainings are the richest opportunity to coach students one-on-one — to draw out and hone the inherent strengths that anchor each therapist’s personal style. They are where we witness each individual’s “superpower” and help them integrate it at the next level of mastery.They are also where we see the blind spots and underdeveloped areas, and in the safety of a small group, bring these to light for healing and new degrees of freedom. The intimacy and deep growth that consistently occurs in these advanced courses is always astounding.
