Tibetan
Buddhist Psychotherapy Overview:
These courses explore Tibetan Buddhist philosophical and
psychological viewpoints such as: self and no self,
relative and ultimate reality, dualism and non-dualism, the
causes of suffering and happiness, interdependent
origination, impermanence, compassion etc.
Western theoretical approaches to working with and
understanding: the therapeutic relationship and process,
the unconscious and dreams and the "sacred; with a focus on
Jungian analytical Psychology, Psychoanalysis , Humanistic
psychology, and existential Psychology are also examined.
This Theoretical exploration and integration is combined
with a substantial emphasis upon one's own personal
psychotherapeutic work, is utilised to promote the trainee
psychotherapist's ongoing potential for conscious
awareness; and ultimately to enhance the psychotherapist's
capacity to engage effectively in a therapeutic
relationship for the benefit of others.
Attendance at traditional Tibetan Buddhist teachings and
retreats is recommended throughout the training to gain
foundational understandings of essential aspects of Tibetan
Buddhism and the ongoing task of integrating this with the
work of psychotherapy.
Particular focus is given to what is different when Tibetan
Buddhism is a part of your life and you work as a
therapist?
How does having Tibetan Buddhist beliefs and practices
influence your work as a therapist and what your clients
receive whether they are buddhists or not?
