We will conduct a day long seminar on Identity Development with as many I.D. sessions as possible.

This workshop is designed to provide an opportunity for those who have a growing interest in Identity Development and in the research and clinical work behind it, including IoPT, Family Constellations and the "new sciences." We will work to support each other and to do continuing personal examination and exploration. 

This is not a closed group and attendance is not compulsory.

COST OF MONTHLY SATURDAY WORKSHOP: 

Attendance is $20 in advance and $25 on the day of. Those choosing to do an I.D. session will pay $125 on top of their attendance fee. Generally five to six I.D.s can be done in a full day’s workshop.

Whether doing a group session or one-on-one work, it is recommended to allow two to four weeks between personal sessions to fully process what has been experienced. 

After an I.D. session, an Institute facilitator will be available by phone to help process what has emerged. Because this work is not therapy, nor a substitute for therapy, we strongly recommend that participants consider working with a licensed therapist as well.

*It is possible to register for either the Open Evenings or Ongoing Workshop Support Group at the door at the time of the event.

ONLINE WORKSHOP

Online group I.D. sessions are available. In this process there are at least three resonators and an Institute facilitator who responds to the the subject’s sentence of intention. Generally the subject will remain in a chair. The group of resonators and facilitator will be seen on video.

It is recommended that the subject have a high quality headset to be able to hear the session as clearly as possible.

Cost: $400

HOME VISIT WORKSHOPS

It is possible to have a facilitator bring three or more resonators for a home visit. This allows for the subjects to have complete privacy and work in their home environment . The subject can also bring friends and relatives to act as observers as well as resonators. 

Cost: Begins at $700


Tutorials

One-on-one Identity Development Sessions are available with Stephen Gyllenhaal. Private sessions are similar to group I.D. sessions except that floor-markers are used instead of group members for the process. 

Private tutorials are available at our facility or online.

Generally with online I.D. sessions the subject remains in a chair and the facilitator moves around a space that is on video. As with other I.D. sessions, the facilitator is available later by phone, if necessary, to help process what emerges in the tutorial.

It is recommended, if possible, to first have an in-person sessions before having online sessions.  Also, it is recommended that the subject have a high quality headset to be able to hear the online tutorial as clearly as possible. It is also possible to have a personal tutorial in the privacy of your home.
