Dear Colleagues and Yoga Teachers,

I’ve had the opportunity in recent years to meet so many of you who are forging a new path in integrating yoga and other mindful awareness practices in psychotherapy.  Many of you who I have met through training and consultation relationships have expressed an interest in having a consultation group focused specifically on the integration of yoga, mindfulness and other mind body self regulation practices within your psychotherapy work. 

So many of you are doing groundbreaking and valuable work in the area.  You are inspiring-  and have so much to offer each other   !

·      Consultation on clinical work, group work, classes or other endeavors you may want feedback on.

·      Learning from the expertise and creativity of the group. 

 

Please bring your ideas for the consultation group,  your experiences integrating mind body practices in your psychotherapy work and your passion  !  Based on Interest, decisions can be made about future meetings
