SALKOM® COACH/THERAPIST
Building on the counselor training, this training focuses on psychodynamically and systemically effective conversation skills (see curriculum below).
The basis is the psychodynamics of healthy development as developed by TD Petzold (Petzold 2022a).
The advanced training to become a SalKom® coach or SalKom® therapist (if you have state-recognized therapy training) comprises six weekend courses (C1-6) or three 5-day courses (CI-CIII). As a SalKom® coach or therapist (depending on your profession), you should be able to resolve and expand psychodynamically effective, even systemically adopted, communication patterns in a salutogenic manner in your therapy or counseling.
All modules of the advanced training are accredited with continuing education points by the Medical Association of Lower Saxony.
To complete the advanced training and obtain the SalKom® Coach/Therapist certificate, participants are required to complete the seminars, complete a one-on-one session with the instructor (Th. D. Petzold), complete group supervision, complete five written and oral case supervision sessions, complete five live supervision sessions, and complete a final written paper on salutogenic communication and psychodynamics. Each of the six modules is a self-contained unit and can be taken in a variety of order.
