HCC: Advanced Learning Module

Meeting Resistance in Coaching: Patterns and Opportunity for Development

Tuesday, October 28th at 8:30 am – 12:30 pm PT

$395.00 USD

This Advanced Learning Module (ALM) invites you to explore the opportunities hidden in moments of “stuckness” during the coaching journey. Stuckness may arise from client resistance, coach resistance, or dynamics within the coaching relationship. From a Gestalt perspective, resistance is not a barrier but a meaningful signal—pointing to values, needs, or patterns that can open new pathways toward a client’s goals.

Through awareness practices, collaborative exploration, and reflective learning experiments, you will learn to recognize and work constructively with resistance. Readings will provide theoretical grounding and support personal reflection, while the module’s practices emphasize presence, safety, and trust. Ultimately, you will expand your perspective on resistance—not as an obstacle, but as a valuable source of insight and possibility for both you and your clients.

Participants receive:

• 3 – 4 ICF CCEUs

Gestalt Group Works: Intervention Mastery for Working with Groups and Teams

November 24 to 28, 2025 (In-Person, Istanbul)

~20 Seats Only~

$2300 USD (+VAT where applicable)

Limited Scholarships Available

Understanding and being able to facilitate groups and work teams is a core competency for leaders, consultants, and executive coaches. Professional mastery in group leadership means having the skills to recognize and track system issues, being able to tolerate disruptions, and being able to intervene at any level of system.

Working with groups and teams requires a grounded presence, the ability to hold multiple perspectives, and a strategic use of self to meet emerging challenges. One of the most effective ways to strengthen one’s presence and use of self is through the practice of facilitating groups and teams.

This 5 day experiential workshop draws from Gestalt concepts and practices to develop mastery in group interventions.

Participants will:

• Be introduced to the principles of Awareness Intelligence, the synthesis of coaching presence and use of self as vehicles to strengthen learning, mindful change, and better choices
• Learn Gestalt theory, concepts, and practices that enhance observation and intervention skills for working at all levels of group process
• Join in a personal learning group to facilitate integration of group leadership issues
• Experience working with a volunteer client group, where there is opportunity to practice and to receive immediate feedback on your presence and use of self as a group leader
