Frequently Asked Questions

What if I miss a Zoom call during training?
The eight week Tuesday evening zoom calls are essential to your training. However, life happens so certificate can still be earned if you participate in at least 6 classes. One on one sessions with Dr. Kutsko can be scheduled as make up sessions.
When can I begin training?
The next cohort begins on February 1, 2022. You will learn to view all challenges through the lens of the Soma Cycle and master the ability to guide your clients from resistance, fear and shame into confidence, embodiment and empowerment.

Do I need prior counseling or coaching experience?
We welcome all levels of experience to join, whether you are an established counselor who would like to expand your skills or you have never coached before. The Soma Coaching Foundations module will cover all the basic principles you need to get started. Coaches will not work directly with trauma treatment, instead they are trained to follow the body in present moment time. Therapists will have opportunity to participate in advanced training modules working more specifically with treating trauma somatically. Check out the Therapist Track page for more information.

You have indefinite access to the course material once purchased. However, you will need to pay a monthly fee of $50 to offer these courses to your clients.
