For professional training of therapists and coaches:
Course 1:
Harnessing the Intelligence of Our Nature
Gives a new understanding of our existence, nature, and discomfort—discover how consciousness uses conflict and challenge to evolve—and learn to catalyze a person’s nature so that evolution switches on.
Course 2:
What Drives Us
Uncovers what truly drives us—revealing the exact yearnings at the root of each issue and behind the profound experiences we seek—then learn to harness those forces to catalyze growth and healing.
Course 3:
Harnessing the Drives for Therapy
Reveals the larger map of human evolution—recognize a person’s struggles as part of a specific track of psychological and spiritual development—and systematically guide them in a way that parallels their innate growth.
Course 4:
Advanced Training: 6-Month Applied Training
Participants begin working with real clients, applying the techniques while receiving weekly instruction and one-on-one mentorship from experienced facilitators. In addition to refining technique, this phase focuses on session framing, tracking a client’s developmental arc, and learning key principles of ethics and practice-building.
While not a supervised practicum in the clinical sense, this phase offers a rigorous and ethically sound structure for real-world application, income generation, and full hands-on integration of the method. It is open to both licensed professionals and serious trainees building toward certification.
The Psychology Training We All Needed—But Never Got
It’s easy to assume that psychology is only for professionals.
From a young age, we’re taught that each of us has a unique skill set we’re meant for—business, engineering, art, health. And then there are the rare ones: the people with an unusual gift—the ability to empathize, to see into others’ minds, to guide growth.
This quiet belief—that only some people are cut out for psychology—has shaped how the field is taught and who gets access to it. Psychology has long been reserved for those who choose it as a career.
Parents may show us how to budget, do laundry, or brush our teeth—but few know how to help a child make sense of the urges behind procrastination, recognize what we’re truly craving when we binge-watch a show, or understand why we pick fights when what we actually want is closeness.
We Don’t Just “Pick It Up”
In many cultures, we assume that we’ll absorb psychological wisdom over time—through tradition, family, or life experience. But the truth is, we don’t. Scriptures and parents may tell us how to be “good” or “perfect,” but they rarely teach us how to build relationships that evolve and change with us. We don’t learn how to hear what’s behind someone’s words. We don’t learn what to say to someone in pain, or how to move through our own conflicting desires without shame.
Scriptures and parents may tell us how to be “good” or “perfect,” but they rarely teach us how to respond to a loved one’s suffering without trying to fix it, how to stay open when someone misunderstands or rejects us, or how to move through the conflicts and desires that quietly—but powerfully—shape our relationships and identity over time.
And the result? We’re living through a psychological emergency. Even before the digital age, people struggled with trauma, shame, addiction, isolation, and loss. Now—with constant overstimulation and deepening disconnection—those problems have only multiplied.
The knowledge about our Nature and our Drives is something that everyone should understand.
No one can escape the impact of our Drives. From childhood, we need to understand what we’re needing, what we’re feeling.
Our shame often begins in childhood when we don’t understand our urges, feelings, or “neediness.” An improper understanding of psychological health and spiritual development is taught where we’re misguided by our cultures to develop spirituality (taught to fight our Ego)

We become the environment that supports their nature
This is a foundational training: learning how to listen and support without advising. You learn subtle, but extremely powerful techniques that activate a person’s natural, innate nature. The effects can feel almost magical in their impact.
This training opens the door to understanding how to participate as nature—quietly strengthening a person’s ability to refer to themselves and evolve within everyday conversations, conflict, and business settings.
It’s a tremendous skill.
While this training is foundational for all of communication, therapy, etc.
It’s not just for the average person, it’s for everyone.
This includes anyone who wants to understand their and others’ needs, which means everyone.
But it also means people who require this in their profession—from parents and teachers to business people, artists, writers, etc.
At the same time, psychologists who have taken this training have said this should be essential training for every psychologist, neurophysiologist, and mental health practitioner as well as addiction and compulsion experts— to understand and diagnose the reasons people are pulled to one substance over another.
So much of spiritual philosophy has led to people unintentionally stifling their nature, creating shame, numbness and compulsions in the name of spiritual development.
Therefore, this training is equally as critical for those people focused on their spirituality—to understand the relationship between our needs and Drives with our spiritual development.
You Shouldn't Have to Abandon Your Own Drives to Support Someone Else
Many of us are familiar with the term “client-centered” therapy—but therapists have Drives too. They carry unresolved issues into sessions. They struggle. And they yearn to grow—not just professionally, but psychologically and spiritually.
If therapy truly engages natural tendencies, then every session should be an opportunity—not just for the client’s healing, but for the therapist’s evolution. It allows the therapist to witness and participate in development—to attune to the deeper nature of the client, or to nature itself—and, in doing so, to experience profound shifts in their own development.
At the Institute for Emergence, our understanding of Drives and development allows us not only to protect therapists from stress and burnout, but to actively promote their growth. We offer precise, targeted techniques that catalyze the therapist's own nature—even while working with clients in distress.
This growth isn’t about convincing ourselves the work is meaningful, or relying on mood manipulation, affirmations, or spiritual bypassing. It’s about real development—rooted in physiology and consciousness.

Therapist-Centered Therapy
The Clarity We Were All Searching For
Understanding the Drives has changed everything.
Drives are not vague tendencies. They are the underlying forces that compel us—governing precisely how we think, how we feel, and how we act. Once we learn them, we don’t just gain insight—we see our lives with clarity. The confusion lifts. Behavior begins to make sense.
Even students with no background in psychology have gone through this training and experienced profound change—personally and professionally.
[[[[[[One of them was a computer engineer who had always distrusted psychology. To him, it felt like a field without rules—vague, inconsistent, and impossible to apply. But after the training, he said for the first time in his life, he could map people’s behavior. What once seemed random—emotions, habits, arguments—now felt like a coherent system. He had a structure for understanding others, and himself.]]]]]]]
These trainings are not just for therapists. They are for all of us.
We are all moving through relationships, careers, communities, aging, and loss. We carry habits, hopes, spiritual yearnings, and unmet needs. There is no reason any of us should remain in the dark about who we are, what’s driving us, or how the challenges in our lives are part of the larger development we’ve always been seeking.

Training 3: The Art of Navigating & Engaging Drives
We turn our attention to mastering the art of therapeutic navigation. We will learn how to support the client’s natural tendencies as they yearn for experiences, process events, and grow from them. This involves learning how to navigate within the therapeutic dialogue—how to guide our clients through various processes, when to pause or move forward. We will also learn how to help our clients navigate towards their overarching goals.
But what does it mean to “navigate” therapy when the client is already guided by their impulses and Drives? Aren’t our clients already instinctively drawn toward what they critically need for their psychological health and spiritual fulfillment? While our Drives naturally steer us in the right direction, there is a critical issue: we fail to listen. We have often learned improperly to overlook our innate guidance.
Training 4: Moving Beyond Problems: Energizing Clients to Live their Passion and Purpose
In this training, we move beyond addressing pain, anxiety, or depression from problems and empower clients to build a future they can feel genuinely excited and passionate about—recognizing and embracing their unique preferences and expressions of their Drives. We will be learning techniques that orient our clients toward goal-oriented lives where they are guided not by discomfort but by a deeper sense of meaning, clarity, purpose, and joy.
This training introduces techniques that enable clients to answer their fundamental questions: What do I truly want? Where is my unique personality and nature taking me? What is my deeper purpose? By identifying and engaging their unique expressions of their Drives, clients will gain clarity not only about their ideal career, partner, or life path but also about strategies that reflect their individuality—how they want to run their business, where they want to vacation, or even what movies they enjoy. This is about creating a life that truly fits them, like finding the right shoe size for their unique footprint.
