Processwork is a comprehensive awareness paradigm that seeks to observe, follow, and support the flow of nature as it emerges and unfolds through people, groups, and communities.

Developed primarily by Drs Arnold and Amy Mindell throughout the 1970s (and ongoing) it combines Taoism, Jungian psychology, communication and systems theory, Shamanic tradition, and quantum physics, into a trainable model that enables practitioners to identify the subtle signals of emergent processes and then help them become more known to the individual or group, such that they increase awareness of self and others.

Many of our struggles, both individually and collectively, stem from inner and outer conflicts against our diversity and emerging nature; Processwork not only helps to transform those conflicts, but teaches us to expect and accept conflict as part of nature itself.

The Processwork model was birthed by Dr Arnold Mindell, a physicist and Jungian analyst who noticed the patterns present in people’s night time dreams were the same as those present in their body symptoms. From this unfolded a model grounded in observable communication signals that carry information from disavowed parts of self and identity. Practitioners are trained to observe these signals and then help them unfold and become conscious. It’s not an advice-giving, goal-oriented or practitioner-solving model; Processworkers help nature unfold.

Processwork can be applied in all areas of life. The major applications currently include psychotherapy (individual, relationship and family), coma and near death work, conflict transformation and mediation, facilitation, coaching, and organisational development.

The intensive is a fantastic way to learn more about yourself and the world around you. It’s also a great foundation in Processwork and suits people with a variety of interests, backgrounds and goals. It’s also perfect for facilitators, therapists and coaches looking to explore the Processwork approach.

The Processwork Intensive program is a combination of theory, experiential exercises, personal development and skill development.

Processwork is comprehensive awareness framework with many applications, so through the course of the two workshop blocks we’ll explore the central components of the model and its main applications.

The intensive provides you with basic foundational knowledge and skills, as well as significant personal development, that in itself is valuable. However, it also will assist participants in deciding whether to undertake further training in Processwork, whether it be the full Diploma training or the Process Oriented Coaching Program.
