This training is for SP graduates of the L1/Trauma training and L2/Developmental training.

The Advanced Integrative Training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy consists of three components:

1) Skills Consolidation: Trauma (SCT) - Independent Learning

2) Skills Consolidation: Developmental (SCD) - Independent Learning

3) Advanced Integrative Training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy - Live

Both the Skills Consolidation parts of the course are online, self-directed, self-paced components which support the consolidation of knowledge and skills introduced in the two basic SP courses for trauma and developmental work to prepare the learner for certification in SP. The SCT consists of 13 basic skills units, and SCD consists of 16 basic skills units, that guide the learner from SP Foundations through Essential Skills to the Five Stages of the Process. Building on the basic information and initial practice of skills application from the L1- Trauma and L2-Developmental trainings, the student will see new presentations from Pat Ogden and other SPI Faculty, review clinical application video content, participate in small group discussions, and complete self-directed learning activities using interactive media and provided worksheets to consolidate past learning and refine existing skills for Certification in SP.

The Advanced Integrative Training (AIT) course is presented in a hybrid learning format (asynchronous and synchronous with online support), with 108 credit hours. Students are provided with short preparation modules via SPI's online learning system to maximize the opportunities for live practice, feedback and integration of SP Foundations during the corresponding live meeting modules. The AIT's 6 module format deepens practical application and expands the student's awareness of the following topics:

1. Arousal Modulation and the Body as a Resource (Somatic Resourcing)

2. Orienting and Defensive Responses

3. Current Issue

4. Developmental Memory

5. Expanding Practice

6. Completion

Evaluation and Certification in SP

NOTE: This course includes elements that are live and interactive. To participate, you must have a computer with internet connection, a microphone, and a webcam. Portions of the training will be recorded. Meeting live-online requires a strong and reliable internet connection.

The Advanced Integrative Training in SP is an evaluative course.

Certification: Completion of Advanced Integrative Training in SP does not guarantee Certification in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Certification is a highly individualized process that may require further work outside of the scheduled hours of the course.

Graduates of the Advanced Integrative course who are awarded "Certification in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy" may use the phrases "Certified in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy" and "Sensorimotor Psychotherapist" to indicate their achievement. "Certified in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy" and "Sensorimotor Psychotherapist" are phrases used by Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute(R) to identify Certified Graduates who have achieved competency of the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy method and who hold legally accepted credentials in the mental health field. These phrases do not in any way, real or implied, supersede laws governing the legal authorization to practice as a mental health professional.

SPI is neither a regulatory nor licensing organization and therefore not sanctioned to certify, license, or otherwise bestow the legal authorization to practice as a mental health professional.

Statement on Cultural Competency: SPI is committed to cultural competency in its course presentations and in the practice of Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. These three courses include discussion of the impact of all forms of discrimination, exclusion, and oppression - including racism, ageism, sexism and gender inequality, whether they occur at individual and/or organizational levels.

This training includes two online, self - paced modules and six in - person modules.
