The Advanced Facilitator Training is an intense practicum using the tools demonstrated in the Video Training Series. The scope of what you can expect to get out of this training is enormous and includes:
- A solid grounding in advanced Shadow Work® facilitation skills, including how to facilitate the four Identity Wound processes.
- Learning about the deepest wounds that human beings carry and how those wounds manifest themselves in various behaviors.
- A powerful experience of your own personal growth.
- Professional facilitating skills that you can apply yourself, at home or in your community.
Participants in this training will receive the manual and links to training videos approximately six weeks prior to course, so they can become familiar with the tools and processes before the training. This training is highly experiential and has a small participant-to-trainer ratio. It involves a great deal of hands-on facilitation time, both in practice situations and in real processes.
In order to qualify for the Advanced Training, you must first attend the Basic Facilitator Training. The Advanced Training is the second step to becoming certified as either a Shadow Work® Group Facilitator or a Shadow Work® Coach for individual sessions. After attending this training, you are eligible to attend the Leader Training and the Coaching Training.

Brochure for Advanced Facilitator Training
The Advanced Facilitator Training (AFT) will teach you to facilitate the four Identity Wound processes: the Tombstone, the Alpha-Split (God-Split), the Predator (Vampire), and the Good Guy/Bad Guy. You will also learn how to recognize Identity Wounds when they show up in participants and in yourself.
The Identity Wounds tend to be the most shameful wounds we carry. This training will give you the chance to see, own, and accept these wounds in yourself, along with the resulting shadow-y behaviors. This can be a painful process. At the same time, we believe that in order to become a really skilled and compassionate facilitator, you need to know and love these parts of yourself.
Our focus in this training will be to familiarize you completely with these wounds and provide you with a solid grounding the facilitation of the Identity Wound processes. During the first days of the training, you will practice facilitating the different processes with one of the trainers acting as the participant. During this time, you will also be learning to self-facilitate these processes. During the latter half of the training, you will co-facilitate whole, live processes with your fellow attenders. This means that each of you will have the opportunity to do your own personal work in an Identity Wound process facilitated by other trainees, coached by the trainers.
Your ability to absorb and facilitate the Identity Wound processes will depend on your ability to use the basic Shadow Work® tools: splits and triangles, support, metaphors, and boundaries. To prepare for this training, you will want to review your Basic Facilitator Training materials and spend as much time facilitating as you can before the training.
