Life Coaching Schema Workshop

Upcoming Training Dates
Prerequisite:

• Traumatic Incident Reduction Workshop
•              or
• Introduction to the Basics of Applied Metapsychology & Life Stress Reduction – Case Planning Workshop

Time: (Standard) 2 – 3 Days

Schema work is essentially life planning. It is done in what we call consultation mode, a form of coaching, which unlike other Applied Metapsychology programs, involves some practitioner analysis, while still remaining as person-centered as possible.

Schema coaching is a method for use when a viewer (client) needs motivation, has difficulty choosing a direction in life, is unsure of life goals, or has difficulty in reaching goals.

Schema work also meets the needs of viewers whose lives are too chaotic to allow them to benefit from regular Applied Metapsychology sessions.

This course teaches a systematic approach to examining and streamlining the path to achieving our goals in life. It also provides effective tools for overcoming emotional charge accumulated after past failures as well as tools for formulating new goals.  A Life Plan may be devised using Schema coaching for one particular part of a client’s life, or a General Schema, for an overall plan for life.
