INTEGRATING THE SHAMANIC
JOURNEY INTO A
COUNSELING PRACTICE

Isa Gucciardi

The shamanic journey gives direct access to the workings of the deeper self. It is one of the oldest vehicles known to mankind for healing and for the transformation of consciousness. Integrating the shamanic journey into a counseling practice typically reduces practitioner burnout and quickens the transformative process of the client.

In this workshop, you will first learn how to journey and to use the journey to energize yourself as a therapist. Once you have established the shamanic journey as a personal practice, you will study how to seamlessly integrate the journey into your counseling practice. You will learn to interpret the images and teachings of a journey, recognize references to hidden client issues, and use the journey in helping clients move past resistance and defensiveness.

Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., holds degrees in Cultural Anthropology, Comparative Religion, and Transpersonal Psychology. She has received master-level training in shamanism in several different traditions and has studied shamanic practices for more than 25 years. She teaches internationally, and has an active counseling practice in San Francisco. For more information, please see www.anamcarafoundation.org.
