What kind of training and/ or certificate does one need to do ones own mindfulness therapy groups?
Hi, Joseph. Can you say more about the context of what you’re asking about? We have a training pathway through Oasis to become a CFM Certified MBSR Teacher, and you can also find other programs across the globe for other kinds of certificates in mindfulness. The process, time, rigor, and outcomes may vary tremendously from one to the next – completion of teacher training in MBSR, for example, does not include credentialing as a therapist, and MBCT requires one already be a professional in the field.
It seems this question, however, isn’t around simply teaching, but creating a setting for group therapy. Can you say more about that?
