Certificate in Depth Practices
A 10 Month Apprenticeship Program
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.

"I'd had many friends participate in Vanya's programs, and when it came time to shape my own degree, I knew I wanted to learn from her. Vanya created a customized course for me that had the academic vigor required for my doctoral program as well as the soul required for deep and meaningful integration. I loved every moment of exploration and conversation with Vanya and I look forward to learning from her again soon!"

“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!”
