ABOUT THE TRAINING

The Aleceia method is based on more than 30 years of clinical experience by Mario C. Salvador and Carmen Cuenca from the Aleces Institute in Spain. It is an integrative approach that combines Relational Integrative Psychotherapy (Erskine), neuroscientific insights into trauma, and body-oriented mindfulness. It is grounded in a contemporary understanding of dissociation and ego fragmentation.

The aim of the method is to enable deep processing of traumatic experiences and the integration of implicit memories rooted in neurobiological structures that influence a person’s current functioning and quality of life.

The model emphasizes the brain’s self-healing capacities and the importance of the therapist’s presence, which—through full engagement—provides the client with a safe environment to face split-off material. Within this safe space, the client re-establishes contact with their experience, accepts it, and integrates it.

Special emphasis is placed on understanding the effects of dissociation on the sense of self. Through the therapeutic relationship and the therapist’s presence, the method fosters the client’s development of a compassionate relationship with their different inner states (ego states).

Training Content

The intention of Phase 2 is to go deeper in understanding and using Aleceia Method. We will refine the skills of the therapist in using his therapeutic language to help the brain reprocess, to focus on observing and using the client’s body. We will also deepen the work with the internal community (ego states), the legacy of transgenerational trauma, and the use of countertransference.
