This course is for people that have experience listening and supporting others in a context of care.

This includes most health professionals (psychologists, psychotherapists, nurses, doctors, psychiatrists, etc) and care or support providers (such as counselors, coaches, mentors, social workers, retreat facilitators, etc). The range is broad. 

This is not an introductory course, so we assume students will have a working knowledge of the basic boundaries of therapeutic relationships (non judgmental listening, transference, projection, avoiding directive advice, etc.) If you don’t have active knowledge of these topics, this course might not be the right choice for you. You may wish to get prior training on these topics.
