Fundamentals of Psychosynthesis

The Fundamentals course is the starting point for all Institute Training Programmes and has often been experienced by participants as transformative and life enriching in its breadth and depth. For anyone looking for an experience of Psychosynthesis, this course aims to give you this, and is a taster of the unique experiential way we train here at The Institute.
‍
The course will be of particular value to individuals on a journey of Self- discovery and professionals interested in applying psychosynthesis as a new context to their existing field of work.

The Fundamentals is both pre-requisite and the qualifying course for further training at The Institute. The Fundamentals takes place over 3 days, usually from Friday to Sunday at our London home in Hendon as well as 'online' as distance learning for those further afield or those preferring to work remotely. The Fundamentals Course is complete in itself, and is integrated into our MA Programmes and training in Psychosynthesis Psychology.

If for any reason the course cannot run, we will offer you a refund or you may book an alternate date.
