Counselor Training Program Manual & MP3 Series

This is the first of its kind Counselor Training Program (CTP) in the world! 

Once a five-day training series, this groundbreaking and comprehensive therapeutic protocol is now available in an MP3 Series, accompanied by a 250-page manual. The Counselor Training Program is for therapists, coaches, and ministry leaders who wish to assist those who experience unwanted same-sex attraction (SSA) and their loved ones.

Psychotherapist, educator and author Richard Cohen has counseled and successfully helped hundreds of men and women transition from a homosexual to a heterosexual orientation over the past thirty-five years. Additionally, he has assisted hundreds of parents in restoring relationships with their same-sex attracted (SSA) loved ones. In this landmark training series, he shares the “how tos" of implementing these two groundbreaking protocols: 1) assisting those with unwanted SSA, and 2) helping their family members. Additionally, the newly published CTP Manual includes the Family Healing Session Protocol Manual. 

Topics include:

* Identifying the basic causes of same-sex attraction (SSA) 
* Developing a comprehensive four-stage treatment plan for healing
* Successful therapeutic strategies for each stage in the treatment plan
* Protocol for group therapy and support groups
* Twelve principles to help parents create greater intimacy with their SSA loved ones
* Taking care of the caregiver to prevent burnout 
* How to do effective media interviews

* Family Healing Session protocol manual 

Testimonies:

Richard Cohen, with his keen sensitivity and ability to empower and transform lives, is just phenomenal. Being a part of the training, responding to, and helping persons with same-sex attraction has revolutionized and empowered my ministry tremendously. The content of this training was consistent with the Word, a courageous Work, and challeneged my Will.

No one today has more practical, real-life experience helping individuals process and explore unwanted same-sex attraction than Richard Cohen. I have applied techniques and ideas that I've learned from Richard with great success as I've worked with life-coaching clients and groups over the years. His instruction and mentoring are invaluable.

I am so blessed to have participated in the first training for certification as a Sexual Orientation Coach with Positive Approaches To Healthy Sexuality. I feel it has thoroughly prepared me to deal with clients in this sensitive area. Comprehensive in scope, sensitive in approach, and detailed in methodology, this course will untangle the nuances of counseling the struggler with unwanted SSA. As more therapists become familiar with this course, many SSA strugglers who have been disappointed with traditional therapeutic approaches will obrtain the help they need to progress in the difficult journey towards personal wholeness and heterosexuality.
