Therapist Training
Therapists Wanting to Help Change the Nature of Marriage
We have a special training course for therapists wanting to learn and offer these skills to their clients. We associate with, refer clients and rely upon NVC-skilled therapists to help stop the immediate pain, to experience genuine connection through communication, and to help envision and create joyful relationships.
Any therapist wanting to help or to participate in this process should contact us. We need to continually increase our referral base as the number of our clients grows. To qualify, a therapist must have a minimum of 30 days training in NVC intensives or the equivalent.
If you believe you may qualify to be an NVC therapist, please apply to be included in our referral network. After confirming your training, we will add you to our referral NVC trained referral base.
To find a class in Relationship Transformation or Group Mediation, review the Courses section for more information, visit the Enroll Now page, call Lisa at 503-228-7256, or email us so that we can get in touch with you. We have classes starting each month. Just one having the skills changes the relationship, but if you both want to take the class, we recommend that you consult with the instructor before deciding whether to take it together or in separate classes.
To find a therapist to help with personal issues or marital crisis intervention, we have therapists trained in using Relationship Transformation and Peace-Making in therapy. They can help you with marital therapy and with traditional personal therapy. See our Therapist Referral page to find a therapist.
To find help with a legal separation or divorce, we have mediators and lawyers trained in Peace-Making. They can help create a legal separation while you repair your marriage or create a divorce through which you can work together to parent cooperatively from two households. See our Legal Help section.
About Peace-Making
We are a private, commercial organization, without membership. We teach Peace and help with conflict resolution in your relationships. We teach internal peace through the skills of Nonviolent Communication, Conscious Awareness and Psychological Growth that raises one’s horizon. These produce an internal relationship with consciousness, with who you are, that gives Peace. These skills also produce relationships with others that give emotional gratification and joyful relationships. In addition to the skills of personal Peace, we teach community Peace. By applying these skills in therapy, mediation and conflict resolution, community relationships and business, we teach Peace within our community.
