Porges' Safe and Sound
Protocol (SSP) Group Offerings
We are offering two SSP groups this summer.
One is an online SSP group for therapists
and the other is an SSP and Sandtray group
that will meet in person. Please note
that these are NOT trainings, rather an
opportunity for psychotherapists to
experience the listening program that we can
then offer to clients.
Come play with us as we explore SSP, a
wonderous tool created by Stephen Porges.
Together we will attune to our inner
experience, learn from each other and apply
it creatively in our clinical practice.
Tove and Alexis have worked with SSP with
groups, individuals and couples. We make
this complicated tool accessible with warmth
and curiosity.
This group will meet five times for an hour
each time. Participants will have access to
the five hours of Safe and Sound Protocol
(SSP) listening program. During group
meeting times, we will listen for 20 mins at
a time with leaders providing co-regulation.
Participants will also do listening outside
of the group.
$65/session. In each session
meeting, you will have access to two SSP
administrators with play therapy and
Polyvagal expertise, the full 5-hour SSP
listening program (valued at $350) as well
as the opportunity to witness individual
responses to this regulating tool

We warmly invite you to join us for a
one-of-a-kind experience exploring the SSP
through the playful medium of sand tray.
Let's come together with open minds and
hearts to attune to our inner experiences,
learn from each other, and creatively apply
this powerful tool to our clinical practice.
We can't wait to share this journey with
you!
Tove and Alexis have worked with SSP with
groups, individuals and couples. We make
this complicated tool accessible to those
who are new to this experience with warm
openness.

minutes/session. Participants will have
access to the 5-hour Safe and Sound
listening program and will do listening in
group as we create sandtrays that reflect
our inner regulation. At the fifth
meeting, we will provide a slideshow
highlighting our sandtrays and nervous
system states.

will have access to two SSP administrators
with play therapy and Polyvagal expertise,

The Rhythm of Regulation
Building Safety from a Polyvagal
Perspective
An Intensive
Training Program
With
Deb Dana, LCSW.
|
A Journey of Truth
Based on the stellar book by Byron
Brown, "The Soul Without Shame" will
be our guide to recognizing our true
self and disengaging from the
relentless tyranny of our self-judgements.
We will be exploring how to
recognize our own judgments,
recognize our direct experience of
being judged, along with how to
embody our true self that is often
hidden when we identify with the
judge. We will do this through
exercises, discussion and didactic
experiences with compassion,
curiosity and support. |
Dr. Porges’ research offers a cutting edge
framework for the treatment of trauma. Polyvagal
Theory provides a state of the art map
outlining a new way of looking at habitual
patterns of action, disconnection, and
engagement.
In this wonderful workshop series, Deb Dana
translates Dr. Porges’ theory into clinical
application with the creation of an
integrated approach to polyvagal
intervention. We begin with an examination
of Polyvagal Theory and the science of the
autonomic nervous system followed by
comprehensive study of the phases of
polyvagal intervention. She does this with
kindness, clarity and integrity.
"The greatest thing then...is to make our
nervous system our ally as opposed to our
enemy." William James

Kabbalistic Healing Study
Group
This class introduces
the concepts and practices of Kabbalstic
Healing; a non-dual approach to body, mind,
spirit healing through a series of six
classes. Through the study group format we
are able to come together in small
communities of discussion, informative
lecture, experiential exercises, and
meditation to understand the nature and
origin of existence, our place within it,
and what God, healing, prayer, and suffering
look like from the four major world views of
mystical thought. Participants will also
learn and practice a non-dual form of
healing in class six.
(Visit our site often for current dates and
locations for this class. If you would like
