A SPIRITUAL EMERGENCE COACH® (SEC)

Facilitates Support Groups for Integration

 

Click HERE For Our Current Schedule of Support Groups 

A Spiritual Emergence Coach® has been trained by Integrative Mental Health University (IMHU) to support those challenged by intense psycho-spiritual phenomena. IMHU has trained and certified 100+ SECs® from 17 countries. Listed below are our current Certified SECs® who maintain active status. Many of them consult online via zoom so feel free to select a SEC® from any location.

Examples of these phenomena include: mystical experiences, psychic opening, near-death experience (NDE), kundalini awakening, and shamanic journey.  (Click here for further explanation.)  Catalysts for such experiences may include ritual, use of plant medicine and psychedelics, stress, trauma, meditation, and intensive workshops.

Integration of such experiences is key for positive transformation to occur (more peace, happiness, life-satisfaction). As more people are having these experiences, there is increased need to offer appropriate support for integration so that the positive, potential transformation is reached. This can avoid a potentially faulty diagnosis for mental illness, and unnecessary medication and stigma.

Support groups aimed at furthering integration and facilitated by SECs® offer the opportunity for individuals to feel safe sharing experiences and resources, and being part of a supportive community.  All SECs are qualified to facilitate support groups offering peer support for integration of psych-spiritual events. Certification as a SEC® does not qualify that person to act as a licensed healthcare or mental health practitioner if they don’t already hold such a license.

Disclaimer of Warranties and Liabilities

SECs are required to work within the mandates of their individual licenses, scopes of practice, skills and knowledge regarding sessions of coaching or counseling individuals one to one.  All SECs are qualified to facilitate support groups but these groups are not supposed to replace licensed healthcare or mental health professionals. The support group can be an adjunct to such providers. If you are in a crisis, please seek out your trusted healthcare provider.

Many certified SECs® also have other credentialing, professional training and/or licensure to practice in their respective field as an MD, mental health counselor, therapist, or coach. IMHU certification as a Spiritual Emergence Coach® does not replace any such appropriate licensure in the fields of counseling, social work, psychology, psychiatry or any other similar credentialing as a licensed healthcare or mental health practitioner. Anyone who holds himself or herself out as a qualified professional mental health practitioner must have obtained their relevant credential, training, and/or license independent of IMHU certification.
