Welcome - I’m delighted you landed here

The journey to become a certified Inner Child Practitioner begins with the Inner Child Workshop which is the foundation to a courageous, playful, deep and integrative healing journey with your inner child. Creating a safe space for your inner child to be seen, heard and witnessed in all their light, shadow and wholeness is the core of the workshop. You will learn tools and techniques to be able to hold space for yourself, your inner child and connect with them to begin and continue building a trust relationship.

As with many transformational modalities that enable you to heal, grow and experience new depths of your multifaceted nature of being in a human experience, inner child work is a complete and trauma informed considerate practice. As it changes your life, the desire to share this practice with others may arise, which is where you are welcomed wholly into this space.

Training to become an Inner Child Practitioner is for those who are looking to:

  • Deepen their own journey of learning, healing and transformation with inner child work
  • Learn a framework and practice that will enable them to expand in experience, tools and later develop as offerings that they wish to share with others
  • Receive support and guidance throughout their journey as they embody the tools and techniques learned in the workshop, mentoring and training program
  • Have some accountability with maintaining their practice and seek support as/when needed
  • Receive and acknowledge their dedication and commitment on their journey to being a practitioner by gaining a certification that aligns with their values
  • Make a commitment to a healing and transformative modality through an experiential approach they wish to bring to the world!

Becoming a certified Inner Child Practitioner

The Inner Council Practitioner Program is an experiential process where practitioners demonstrate their ongoing trust relationship with the Inner Child over the workshop and complete at least one 3 month session of mentoring. This is required in order to give the workshop and provide mentoring to their own participants. Following this process there is a final Practitioner Program which provides the soft skills required to comfortably manage the relationship with participants, so that practitioners feel enthusiastic and enjoy their work. Upon completion you receive all documentation and certification so you can run workshops, provide mentoring and bring the Inner Child into your practices.

Becoming a certified Inner Child Practitioner involves a dedication to a continued connection and building upon the trust relationship with you and your inner child. Checking in on a daily basis, journaling and recording interactions with your inner child is fundamental to the process of your own personal development and supportive connection to your inner child. This is an essential aspect; to continue your personal work and journey in order to prepare, gain experience and hold space for others to do the same when holding your own workshops and guiding inner child work.

Practitioner’s experiences of Stage 2 of the program: Mentoring

My mentoring journey with Amy was exceptional. Amy's qualities of trustworthiness and immense patience create an environment conducive to deep introspection and personal growth.

Andrea

Amy is a pure light and held my experience and journey with love, compassion and understanding. I felt safe to enter into new landscapes together and discover ties to old habitual tendencies, outdated ways of looking at the world and pave a new way of experiencing the frontier of my life.

Stacie

I loved my mentoring experience with Amy who is an inviting, compassionate practitioner. She definitely gave me the room and made me feel comfortable to be open, vulnerable & to share whatever was coming up. Her knowledge & expertise shone through as she guided me to make sense of some things I maybe wasn't quite sure on, always making sure it was indeed my own reflections & feelings.

Is the Inner Child Practitioner Program for me?

Consult your heart, and inner child!

A profound part of the transformational process the Inner Child Workshop enables is a closer relationship to our intuition and inner landscape. If the workshop resonates with a part of you that can envisage this into a dedicated life practice you wish to pursue for yourself, and share with others, then absolutely this program is for you!

This program is great motivation to keep up the inner child practice, receive ongoing guidance and support during your journey, and provides clear opportunities for expanding your own practice into one you can share with others.

An opportunity to share empowerment and powerful integration tools with others may compliment your already growing self holistic toolkit. Whether you are an existing practitioner, or someone who would like to venture deeper on their personal path, this program is open and available to all who have completed the Inner Child workshop.

What do I commit to when I join the Program?

  • Online and one-to-one study covering the following aspects
    • Participant evaluation & assessment
    • Holding space in the therapeutic environment
    • Explaining empathy and metaphor when guiding others
    • Managing trauma through trauma informed care
    • Understanding regression & guided meditation
    • Integrating others’ experiences into your own narrative
    • Archetypal theory & interpretation
  • Building a personal dedication to your own path and practice of what becoming an Inner Child Practitioner means for you
  • Learning and becoming familiar with the Inner Child Workshop material in readiness for delivering workshops (This includes considerations of group and one-to-one workshop dynamics)
  • Organising a workshop with a friend or family member in readiness for the practical part of the training program

How long can I expect the Program to last for?

The practitioner program is carried out over two one-to-one sessions (approx. five hours), however, the program is a smaller part of your ongoing commitment to Inner Child work and the clear practical demonstration of your own experiences throughout your personal journey that are shared with your practitioner.

Like with all holistic healing practices, there are no strict timelines with becoming a practitioner; the natural path can take anywhere between 3-6 months for the connection to be nurtured and developed with your inner child. However, this will also depend on personal commitments, circumstances and integrating the practice into your life.

Part of your journey will be to trust; in yourself, intuition and your inner child to what is coming up and how comfortable and confident you are in sharing this practice, firstly with yourself and with others. Once a few instances of natural processing have occurred, an alignment will become apparent that you are ready to share with others, using your experience and intuition as your guide.

When the moment arrives, you will know!

The training program is suitable for those who are already practitioners and wish to add to their toolbox, enliven their personal and professional practice and be a source of support and guidance for others wishing to heal, grow and transform too. Therapists, coaches, counsellors, well-being and holistic practitioners are among those who have trained to become Inner Child Practitioners, as well as those embarking on their journey who feel a strong calling to develop the skills and gain experience in the journey required to be a practitioner too.

Testimonials from the Practitioner Program

Annie - Person Centred & Holistic Counsellor

“I felt the program overall, had a deeply profound effect on my life. I connected to my Inner Child on a much deeper level than I have ever before.  Each day,  the connection continues to grow and grow and I have a much better understanding of my patterns and wounds.

During the program,  when challenges were raised, (and there were many), I was able to overcome them as I had been provided with tools during the course to work through the challenges. The material within the course gave me a better understanding, why I was either reacting to a certain situation or attempting to sabotage my life.

The Practitioner Program for me differs from others as I felt very supported by my mentor, Amy. With regular zoom sessions with Amy, I felt well supported and understood.  The level of compassion and understanding was amazing, and I was able to have a voice in a safe space. The Practitioner program is not rushed and you are given time and space to achieve optimum outcomes.”

Megan - Social Worker & Grief Recovery Specialist

“The Program far exceeded my expectations! I was floored by how much perspective I gained about my own personal loss experiences that I have already previously worked through helping me to find a deeper level of peace.

The hands-on structure of experiencing prior to facilitating is more in depth.  The level of personal work was much deeper that allowed for better understanding that other programs.”

Amy was highly engaged throughout this program. While the topics we went through were deeply personal, I never felt alone and I love how she held space as I explored the past with her as a guide.

Andrea - Mindset Coach & Mentor

“My mentoring journey with Amy was exceptional. After participating in the initial workshop under her guidance, I couldn’t have been more grateful for the opportunity to share this transformative space with her. Amy’s qualities of trustworthiness and immense patience create an environment conducive to deep introspection and personal growth.

What struck me the most was the genuine human connection in this experience. Amy, my mentor, would occasionally share her personal opinions and stories during our sessions. This not only made the whole process feel more real but also created a special connection between us. It’s those moments of sharing that made me feel truly connected to her on a personal level.

I truly appreciated the personalized 1:1 experience, finding it highly enjoyable. The program specifically targeted the areas where I required the most support, allowing me to grow in my personal gifts. Amy provided unwavering support throughout the entire program, making me feel fully assisted.

The final training sessions went smoothly! Delving into the trauma session was particularly beneficial, providing me with valuable insights on how to approach this work in a trauma-sensitive environment.”

Rita - Mindset Coach

“During my healing journey for childhood trauma I came across inner child healing & the positive impact it had on me was so much that I knew I had to learn & experience more. From the discovery process of my inner child healing I have the lightest most whole feeling I’ve ever had. It’s given me the desire to help others using this amazing healing method.

I loved the program as it fulfilled my intention for inner peace & healing. I enjoyed being able to do it in the comfort of my own home, knowing I was in a safe environment to be open for the experiences.

There was lots of space & time for reflections & insights, which was amazing for me to be able to piece things together (things I may never have realised without the space). I loved seeing the integration of my day-to-day tasks and goals with my inner child journey and how as I connected more I was drawn to and able to accomplish other things (I hadn’t been quite ready for).

Amy was amazing from start to finish. Always compassionate, kind and a real sense of calm (which I feel is important on such a journey). It wasn’t always heavy and I enjoyed the lighter side to things. Amy is an experienced mentor and I drew valuable insights & lessons from her.

If you are looking for in-depth training I would really recommend this Practitioners Program. I have experienced the definite results & benefits of this program so I can say it works. I can see how it can be integrated into other healing & self-help methods as well, which can make for a greater impact & transformation for others.”

Janice - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Private Practice

During my years of practice, I have noticed that childhood events or traumas often are the origin of current adult crisis, so being trained as an Inner Child practitioner is very beneficial to the healing of clients. This program is so insightful and educational for anyone who wants to grow mentally and emotionally. This program supported me to learn the 3 parts of a child: the inner child, the adult, and the parent. How each one plays a pivotal role in the connection of being one with self.

This program was a deeper and more insightful study of oneself. My skills as a clinical therapist were truly enhanced. Amy was superb and skilled at pulling out feelings and behaviors through active listening without blaming but simply naming the behaviors and what they mean to your current interactions or relationships.

I would recommend all practitioners to take this program. I believe it’s the foundation for all therapies. It lays the foundation for healing and wholeness to loving oneself, then you will handle life’s challenges with a greater depth of understanding.

This Program is wonderful to become certified in because it’s educational and it’s knowledge base of Inner child is strong and teaches clients they hold the power of change.

Stacie - Integrative Life Coach

“LOVE Amy and her spirit! Amy was amazing and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process.  I honestly couldn’t have asked for a more approachable and digestible experience. I loved the 1:1 support and the way that the program was spaced out (intentionally!).

If you are ready to truly experience deep inner healing in a supportive and loving container, this program is for you! I would recommend this program 100%!

It is such a joy sharing this powerful healing modality with amazing humans that are seeking healing on such a deeply important and impactful level.

Chantelle - Healthcare Specialist

I felt the program went very well. I felt I understood many of the elements and considerations of what makes a strong facilitator for this type of work. I enjoyed running my first workshop, as it provided that sense of confidence and it demonstrated to myself that I really had learned so much and internalized a lot of knowledge and wisdom that I can offer and support others with.

Amy was so supportive throughout my entire journey working with her. She has offered me so much guidance as I moved through my own inner child work, and also a lot of encouragement and support as I worked towards becoming a facilitator of this work myself. I was able to ask her any questions that arose and she would always respond back with so much consideration and thoroughness. I felt her passion for what she does and she genuinely wanted to be there to support me at every stage of my journey. She is so approachable and insightful, which creates a valuable space with so much room for expansion, growth and deeper understanding. 

I felt the one-on-one guidance was very effective and helpful in my growth and learning. Each individual is so different and having the individualized approach to learning is something not often found in many courses or programs, and that makes this program unique.

I would recommend this program to anyone with that deep desire to offer a healing service to others. The emotional and spiritual journey is so complex, deep, and unique to each person but I feel that inner child work is such a significant part of that journey. If you have embodied and experienced this yourself and understand the healing that comes with inner child work, you would have so much to offer others in supporting their journey and the Practitioner program would be a great fit for you.

If you are looking to find a way to offer your unique gifts and service to the world, and support others in their healing journey, I feel that the knowledge and the skills learned in this program offers so much value.

Kathryn - Licensed Master of Social Work

“I absolutely loved the program! Overall, the entire program felt like a good pace and enough time to do my own inner child work while also learning how to facilitate and guide others on their journey. As with any kind of healing work, there are often times where you might feel triggered when processing your emotions and experiences, but Amy did a wonderful job of holding a safe space to address and work through those moments. I never felt rushed or pressured, but at the same time, I still felt challenged.

I really enjoyed the one-on-one dynamic throughout this program. Every training/program I’ve done has always been in a group setting, which can be beneficial, but at the same time, it’s easy to maybe not put as much effort into learning since you’re surrounded by so many people. I felt like this program was very personal and intimate, and I received the space to reflect on my own experiences and connect them to our discussions.

I really enjoyed working with Amy! She did a wonderful job facilitating the entire program, and just has so much knowledge and first-hand experiences that I was able to learn from both personally and professionally. She created such a safe and supportive space to work through difficult moments and conversations, and I look forward to continuing checking in with her throughout my journey of doing inner child work.
