Mind-Body Medicine Certification Program

On-going, by application

The Center’s Mind-Body Medicine Certification Program is becoming the gold standard in mind-body medicine. It is designed for graduates of our Advanced Training Program who want to take this work to the highest level.

The Certification Program will provide you with on-going supervision, intellectual understanding, and one-on-one support. Upon completion you will be thoroughly prepared to lead Mind-Body Skills Groups with diverse communities, integrate mind-body medicine into your institution, and develop unique applications for clinical practice and educational programs.

Certification includes:

  • Internship—including 24 hours facilitating or co-facilitating a mind-body skills group and 18 hours of process, planning, and long distance supervision mentorship with a Senior Center Faculty Member
  • Advanced Training II—A return to our Advanced Training Program upon completion of your internship group hours
  • Independent Study—Including group-analysis, a case study, and literature review

You will be a part of a supportive community of healers who will help you develop your own work and take it out into your communities. As you progress in the Certification Program, you are likely to feel far greater satisfaction, competence and joy in your work than you have ever imagined.

All faculty currently engaged in the Center's Global Trauma Relief programs have come through our Certification Program.

I’ve gone through this program with a sense of wonder and gratitude: for learning so much; for receiving such expert guidance; and for being with people with like-minded visions and dreams.
