Increasing Competence in CCT: Story-Work and Redemptive Transformation

Fridays, October 24 – November 21, 2025, 9 AM to 6 PM (EST)

Building on the core CCT skills and practices presented in Level 1 training, this intensive focuses on story-work, based on a Christian’s union with Christ and his story. Therapist-participants will explore their own story, while practicing Redemptive Transformation, the 2nd Pillar of CCT, a stepwise process of working through negative emotions within the Relational Pyramid, for problems stemming from insecure attachment, chronic trauma, personal sin, spiritual struggles, and related transdiagnostic processes (e.g., rumination, emotion avoidance, & dispositional conflict) in the context of the Christian story.
