WORKSHOPS & EVENTS CALENDAR

A one-day workshop with Judy Robinson

Kingscliff: Sat 31 Jan 2026, 9:30 am—5:00 pm

Begin the year grounded and renewed — reconnect with your presence as a therapist. Aligned with vital therapist competencies for reflection reflexivity and self-care, in Hakomi, the personhood of the therapist is considered central to the therapeutic relationship  The therapist’s presence, compassion, curiosity, and embodied self-awareness are understood as powerful instruments. Rather than relying primarily on tools of the trade, we bring authenticity, mindfulness, and openness as living conditions that invite safety, trust, and discovery. Cultivating this realness is both a personal and professional practice — one of ongoing self-study, resourcing, and reflection.

A one-and-a-half-day workshop with Miranda Miller

Perth: Fri 20 Feb—Sat 21 Feb 2026

Hakomi as a method of psychotherapy is based in Mindfulness – the capacity to bring active, curious attention to our experience in the present moment. Mindfulness allows us to connect through our somatic/felt sense to memories of early experiences which have shaped our view of the world and what we can/ do expect. It is in a deep understanding of the beliefs formed and decisions made in response to our early life that real change without constant effort is able to occur.

A one-day workshop with Pernilla Siebenfreund

Montville: Sat 21 Feb 2026, 9:30 am—5:00 pm

Hakomi mindful somatic psychotherapy is a sacred conversation between awareness and love. The practitioner is open to not know everything, and allows the mystery of the client’s inner world to unfold. It is a process that supports change from awareness rather than force. For this unfolding to happen, the practitioner focuses on building safety by paying close attention to their own present moment experience in loving presence, and does the same for the client.

A three-day workshop with Halko Weiss & Maci Daye

Melbourne: Fri 27 Feb—Sun 1 Mar 2026

As someone with a Hakomi background, you’ve already cultivated the art of attuned, compassionate therapeutic relationships. But how can we bring these invaluable skills into everyday life—into relationships where our needs matter just as much as those of the other person? And how can we help our clients do the same? This is the terrain of real-life connections—with partners, family members, friends, and co-workers—where the dance between understanding others and expressing ourselves becomes a true art form. In this immersive workshop, internationally acclaimed Hakomi Trainers Halko Weiss and Maci Daye will guide you in cultivating deeper, more authentic connections for both yourself and your clients through enhanced communication, mutual understanding, and the transformative power of mindfulness.

A two-workshop series with Jules Morgaine, Certified Hakomi Trainer

Auckland: Thu 9 Apr—Sun 12 Apr 2026

Character styles are formed early in life in response to our environment, around core human issues of contact, safety, need, dependency, separation, self-esteem, control, sexuality, competition and competence. These character styles create protective and supportive defences in our childhood, which later become unconscious and therefore outside our awareness. In adulthood, these patterns become limiting, making it difficult or impossible to fully achieve our potential in relationships, work, parenting and other aspects of our life.
