This training takes place online over 3 months. We will be playfully, creatively relaxing into stories together.  The learning model is action-reflection with time to experience the approach, to reflect on the experiences and to try out Deep Talk. The Deep Talk approach will also be modelled in the training process with the facilitators drawing out the wisdom of the group and enabling peer learning. We will also include the opportunity to write your own Deep Talk stories and offer them back to the group for more shared learning.

This training in Deep Talk is for those who may be:

1) involved in mentoring, chaplaincy, therapy, counselling, spiritual accompaniment
2) working with children and families in schools, hospitals, churches, prisons or the community
3) working to improve the working culture in secular and faith organisations
