NeuroSystemics methodology
NeuroSystemics focuses on restoring the vibrancy of one’s nervous system, using somatic and relational approaches. We focus on embodiment approaches in individual, small group and community practices to increase coping skills when facing stress and trauma. So much of clinical practice focuses on what’s wrong: while it is essential to have resilience in the face of challenges, our approach builds on what’s right with us, capitalizes on strengths so that we can learn to deeply embody:
“Feeling good is good, feeling better is better!”
Most of clinical work only practices with individualistic approaches, implying that our suffering is entirely our responsibility, and that we need to resolve it ourselves. However, compelling evidence in modern neuroscience shows that actually, we have evolved as a social species, and there is tremendous benefit to working and playing together. In NeuroSystemics we practice a lot in relationship, in group and in community:
“Together we go further.”

Benefits & Key Learning
The CARE (Clinical Abilities for Resiliency & Empowerment) Training is a transformative 3-year journey to learn, practice and embody bio-psychosocial skills for personal healing and professional development in the midst of a nourishing community. There are 3 main areas of benefits:
1. Skill development:
By personally experiencing the different training activities in a safe environment, you will develop solid clinical skills for 1:1 sessions and group processes:
- Develop a deep understanding of nervous system science, physiological indicators of resiliency & trauma.
- Learn powerful somatic interventions to facilitate safe group process spaces, relational resiliency & group harmonization
- Embody a mindful quality of presence to empower groups towards greater embodiment and relational attunement
- Support clients with a human-centered and transdiagnostic perspective (focusing on what’s right with us), restoring greater health
- Enjoy a gentle, pleasurable & solution-centered methodology with powerful positive psychology interventions (e.g. building on clients’ strengths)
- Embody a high quality of presence : use methods based on cutting-edge neurobiological clinical research to build solid alliances with your clients
- View the experiential process of 1:1 sessions and group work in action with live demonstrations.
- Have access to your personal online classroom with all the recordings of your CARE training.
- Be certified as a NeuroSystemics Practitioner (NSP) on our directory, and join the USABP:
NeuroSystemics is a USABP member, and CARE Training graduates are eligible for membership too!
2. Experiential transformation:
All training activities aim to restore our own deep seated psychobiological and relational goodness for a more mindful and purposeful life of belonging:
- Get relief from stress, grow towards lasting inner peace by understanding your own nervous system patterns
- Build resilient coping skills and restore dysregulation in yourself
- Embody skills of attention regulation, self-regulation and social regulation, for yourself, your clients and groups
- Strengthen your mind with regular practices of mindfulness, compassion and gratitude with playfulness
- Move towards your center, root yourself further and empower your vision for a contented and meaningful life and work
3. Belonging:
Together, with a global and committed group of practitioners, it is possible to creating positive and empowering visions:
- You will be part of a small mentor group (6-8 participants max) and meet with them regularly to discuss learnings challenges and practice together
- Connect personally with our faculty and mentor team, including Boaz Feldman & Heath Wilson and Rebekka Haas
- Creatively engage with highly skilled individuals in community forums to keep refining your understanding
- Participate in a vibrant self-organizing community where we practice what we teach, and walk the talk
- Enjoy a multi-cultural environment, with participants coming from North America, South America, Europe, the middle East and Africa. Together we’ll make our world better!
What’s UNIQUE about CARE compared with other healing approaches?
1. Social somatics: in the CARE Training you will learn key somatic techniques to assess your clients’ autonomic nervous system patterns. Additionally, unlike with other somatic approaches, you will be able to facilitate group processes harnessing the power of somatics and embodiment (Resiliency Circles). You will learn to hold and empower groups as a social organism, combining the amazing work of Irvin Yalom (Boaz Feldman’s mentor) with Polyvagal theory insights.
2. Very experiential practice: Personal sessions and group sessions work all have experiential somatic, mindfulness, here-and-now attention and safety-oriented interventions. You will be more free in your attachment issues, access deeper belonging and intimacy with others and be able to offer powerful somatic spaces for your clients and groups.
3. Beyond individualistic clinical practice: There is too much emphasis on individual approaches to healing, implying that we need to be strong enough without others. You will learn to link personal and collective trauma, and be empowered to practice in group and community. The CARE training is the only clinical training which provides all these skills in a single training with a somatic and embodiment framework.
Is the CARE Training for me?
The CARE Training is for:
- Therapists, clinicians, psychologists, doctors & psychiatrists: learn to work with the body, build solid group facilitation skills, integrate your tools in a transdiagnostic framework, include attentional and emotional regulation.
- New or experienced meditation practitioners & MBSR-MBCT teachers: learn nervous system science techniques to work with individuals and groups somatically.
- Corporate and community leaders & human resource managers: develop relational practices, deepen attunement to others by becoming more sensitive to somatic, affective and group processes to increase the efficiency of your teams.
- Social workers, yoga teachers, health-practitioners & educators: learn to create safe environments for learning and engaging optimally, understand nervous system functioning to support resiliency and empowerment.
- Professionals in the helping professions & NGO’s: prevent burnout and tackle stress optimally, empowerment and inspiration in tackling social and environmental crises and injustices.
The completion of a CARE week-end introductory workshop (10 hours of training) is required for registration on the CARE training program. There are no other pre-training requirements.
