Grow your coaching toward mastery

Learn about the dynamics of your coach-client relationships through attachment awareness.

Recognize your own attachment style so that you can fill in your blind spots and avoid the traps of suddenly finding yourself in a parent-child relationship with your client. And learn to support your clients toward more fulfilling relationships

This six-week training in Attachment Awareness in Coaching is designed to elevate your coaching practice, enhance your clients' transformational journey, and help you understand yourself in the supporting role and in your relationships in a wider context. 2½ hours every week offers you material to reflect, learn, and elevate your coaching.

Untying The Knots is aimed at former students of Needs-Based Coaching or similar coaching programs.

Why does Attachment Awareness matter to you as a coach?

Attachment theory shows that early relationships and attachment patterns significantly influence adult behavior, emotional responses, and relationship dynamics. Recognizing and working with these attachment patterns can profoundly impact the effectiveness of your coaching practice. 

Our approach to working with Attachment Awareness comes from neuroscience educator Sarah Peyton and her framework Resonant Language ® as a gentle yet efficient way to liberate the client from limiting attachment patterns.

It’s all about emotions

During the course, you will deepen your understanding of the emotional palette, how each circuit of emotions serves us and the consequences when we shut them off. Through practice, you will expand your own window of welcome for emotions, including the potentially difficult ones such as hopelessness, shame, disgust, grief, and hate. The result is that you will remain relevant and warm, even when you encounter these emotion in yourself or a conversational partner.

Who is this training for?

If you have studied Needs-Based Coaching, you qualify. Same if you are a seasoned NVC practitioner or have training and experience as a psychotherapist or coach and would like an introduction to Resonant Healing, the work of Sarah Peyton. If you are attracted without the above experiences, connect with us, and let's discuss your options.

You may ask, will I really learn to address attachment patterns effectively in just three days of online training? After these days, you will know the map of the attachment terrain so that you recognize your own attachment styles and those of your clients.

This knowledge feeds directly into your practice as a broth that adds a deeper flavor to your dish.

Depending on your familiarity with Resonant Healing, the new processes may require peer practice before being offered to clients.

TESTIMONIALS

“I signed up to learn something new - and I did. I knew little on the topic and now see Attachment Theory as a central building block that supports the coaching structure/modality.
The program: well taught, clear and concise. Time management was excellent. By far the best aspect was the breakout groups that helped me fumble and apply through trial and error the taught concepts, making it more likely to transfer immediately into my coaching practice. Excellent use of my time.
I would strongly consider joining future teachings/meetings because of the professional nature in which it was taught.” David Stamation, Executive Life Coach, Legacy Life Consulting Idaho, USA

“I signed up for this training because I really value Pernille's teaching and the atmosphere she creates around learning. I found the module very stimulating in terms of professional development and insightful personally too. I'm looking forward to using awareness of attachment styles in my work with clients. I can see how it has the potential to reveal fundamental ways in which we limit ourselves.” Fay Adams, Coach and Mindfulness Teacher

I signed up because I trust Pernille´s offers will help me be a better coach. I gained more self-knowledge. We were a small, interactive group with lots of room for questions. I gained insights into my own patterns, and some clues on how to identify patterns in clients and how to work with them. Professional coach and consultant.
