Programs for Practitioners


Effectiveness when supporting the success of others comes from being able to see the patterns of their behavior clearly, and from having the
self-knowledge and presence to use oneself as an instrument of change.
For professional practitioners - coaches, organizational consultants, clinicians, social workers, social change agents and other advisors - we teach an optimistic approach to working with others.

The core of our approach is the Cape Cod Model, which teaches how to perceive the system formed by any couple, small group or organization, and to employ a powerful method for creating change in that system based on appreciating and articulating
what they are doing well. This shift in perspective transforms stuck situations, and dramatically increases the ability of practitioners to make a difference in a short
period of time. All the following programs are approved for APA continuing education credits.

“Going through the program with both coach and client was invaluable and is already making a meaningful difference in the client’s transitions. The program had that rare combination of offering useful models and making them accessible and practical in real-life situations. I was amazed at how much we accomplished in three short days, and I’m even more amazed at how much I’m using the models back home. Bridget and Rob are accomplished consultants, interesting speakers, and warm human beings who offered great wisdom and tools while staying attuned to the group and accommodating our needs. I recommend this program without hesitation to coaches and leaders dealing with transition.”
