Depth Practices
Certificate in Depth Practices
After years of accompanying and teaching from a depth perspective and engaging in depth practices, I have decided to offer an apprenticeship in the depth practices that I use in my work.
This is a certificate program for therapists, healers, artists, coaches, consultants, and anyone who wants to use these practices in their own daily lives and in their work.
Walking in close community in a small cohort, participants will gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience engaging in depth practices in their own lives, with others they are serving, and in their own creative work.
Participants will receive a certificate in depth practices upon completion of the program.

"Vanya is an incredible teacher, soulful human, and stoker-of-imagination. I cannot imagine a more spacious and grounding person as a companion for exploring soul and psyche. Her offerings and presence have been a lifeline in seasons where I have felt stuck, dissatisfied, and uncertain, always leading me towards the important questions, life-honoring rhythms, and most importantly, deeper into my self."

Weekly Gatherings
These 90 minute weekly live gatherings (virtual) include teaching, discussion, practice, and reflection. They are an opportunity to not only gather around ideas and practices, they are also an opportunity to gather in sacred circle in loving witness of each person's experiences with these ideas, practices and ways of being.
Private Forum
Each cohort has a private forum so we can stay in touch during the week as we each practice and unpack what we are learning. There is so much beauty and strength in being witnessed and knowing we are not alone.
Resource Hub
You will have access to an extensive resource hub created specifically for this course. There you use the suggested readings to follow your own curiosity and deepen into the material.
“I can't say enough about the privilege of working with Vanya (it's a privilege, but also feels vital to my existence). Vanya's gift in communication and teaching along with her depth of heart and wisdom has opened up places in my soul that have been dormant for I'm afraid to think of how long. She creates a safe, inviting, thoughtful space that allows me to choose how deep I want to go and how much I want to look at. You can tell she has done her own personal work as well as incredible amounts of study. She is a continual learner and generously offers wisdom from the deep. I can't imagine anyone not being blessed by meeting and working with Vanya!”
