Shamanism & Psychotherapy LP

<b>A basic tenant</b><br/> of shamanism

A basic tenant
of shamanism

In recent times the practice of psychotherapy has seen the benefit of the inclusion of spirituality for client and therapist alike. Shamanism has much to teach about the process of healing and empowerment. The goals of both practices are very similar – applying techniques that achieve and maintain well-being and healing and to help alleviate suffering. As well as helping our clients transcend their limited definition of themselves and their world.

A basic tenant of shamanism is that one’s personal power is fundamental to wellbeing. As is having self esteem, self compassion, a sense of agency and belonging in psychotherapy.

<b>The cutting edge</b> of ancient wisdom

The cutting edge of ancient wisdom

The concept and experience of what is called non-ordinary reality in shamanism and what we refer to as guided imagery have a lot in common and have enormous potential in psychotherapy. Our imagination is one of our most powerful innate tools as human beings. Shamans have known this fact forever. Combining psychotherapy and shamanism is “The” cutting edge of ancient wisdom.

The workshop format is highly informative and experiential. We believe that experience is the best teacher when grounding new material and is much more likely to be integrated into practice when there has been a direct personal experience.

Learn and <b>experience</b>

Learn and experience

We will present some of Michael Harner’s work as a beginning. He was an archaeologist who researched shamanism worldwide and began teaching what he called core shamanism, the universals of shamanic practices and traditions found across the globe.

The lectures in this workshop are to disseminate information, increase curiosity and hopefully leave you wanting to learn more.

The practices in this workshop are designed to help deepen your awareness of guidance, experience the healing power of ritual, and encourage the implementation of basic shamanic ways into clinical practice.


Meet the teachers

Ann Sinko

Ann L. Sinko, LMFT, Senior IFS Trainer, has 35 years of clinical experience and is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Connecticut. She is in private practice and has been teaching as an adjunct Professor in the Marriage and Family Therapy program at Central Connecticut State University for more than 25 years.

Ann integrates IFS theory and technique into all facets of her creative work with families, couples, individuals and groups. She establishes a safe environment in which clients experience unconditional acceptance. Ann has a background in gestalt therapy, is a systemic thinker and integrates spirituality.

Ann is passionate about teaching, believes that theory is best integrated through experiential learning, and brings a down-to-earth, concrete style and a sense of humor to her teaching. She is also a seasoned world traveler, loves the outdoors, and is an avid gardener.

Robert Falconer

For the past decade or more Robert Falconer has devoted himself full-time to IFS work (Internal Family Systems Therapy). In that time he has attended all levels of IFS training offered, and has been a program assistant more than 18 times.

Bob has been at many workshops and events with Richard Schwartz both as assistant and participant. In addition to studying with many of the other senior IFS trainers, he also co-authored a book with Richard Schwartz entitled, Many Minds, One Self. For all of his therapeutic work, both professional and personal, Bob now uses IFS almost exclusively.

Before this Bob used and explored many forms of therapy, starting with Ericksonian hypnotherapy which he studied with Carol Erickson. He received his master’s degree and hypnotherapist certificate under her tutelage. Then he met and began studying with Jack and Helen Watkins, the creators of Ego State Therapy.


See what others say about the teachers

I have had the good fortune of Bob Falconer serving as a program assistant in IFS trainings for many years. Bob’s deep understanding of the Model, along with his clear and wise teaching, have made him an invaluable presence. When it comes to unattached burdens, Bob is one of the very best clinicians and perhaps the foremost researcher we have.
Paul Ginter
Ed.D, Co-founder of the Center for Psychotherapy and Wellness
Ann has a wonderful presence. Her teaching style is fun and packed with knowledge. I loved the visual creativity in her slides and she always guided us with kindness navigating questions.
Workshop participant
Bob Falconer is a scholar as well as a gifted and engaging teacher. His expertise in the field of unattached burdens is unmatched as he brings a vast theoretical and anthropological framework to the practical business of addressing these phenomenon in the therapeutic encounter.
Derek P Scott

Founder and CEO, IFSCA
Ann is a natural teacher. I appreciated the energy and interesting examples and info that she shares for illustrating various points.

A detailed description of experiential activities:

Please note that the teacher will respond to the needs of the group and because of that, the chosen activities may change

  • Guided meditations

    Guided meditation is an internal practice that you do with closed eyes, following the teacher's voice. The teacher will invite you to sit back, relax, and focus on your inner world. You will meet your parts, talk to them, and often learn things you weren't aware of before. Guided meditation can allow you to do a significant piece of inner work.

  • Sharing and discussions in small groups (usually triads)

    We usually do it after guided meditation and/or after personal practice. We go to breakout rooms and meet in small groups (3 or 4 participants) to share our experiences in a safe space. It is a great opportunity to meet new people and deepen the feeling of connection. This activity is optional - you can stay in the main room.

  • Personal practice (ex. journalling)

    Personal practice means working on your own, usually with a piece of paper, after hearing the instructions explained by the teacher. These exercises may be various - sometimes you will be invited to communicate with your parts by journalling, sometimes you will do a drawing exercise (like mapping your parts). Other times you will get a more complex set of instructions and 10 or 15 minutes to do a piece of the process on your own.

  • Small group exercises

    During this activity we meet in small groups in breakout rooms (3 or 4 participants) in order to do an exercise explained by the teacher. Usually that means practicing a small piece of the model like finding a part or unblending. This activity is optional - you can stay in the main room.

  • Collective unburdening ritual

    It’s a special form of guided meditation during which the group releases burdens and problematic energies. You can experience the healing power of the ritual and feel the connection with the multinational group of workshop participants. Joining this activity is optional.
