History

In 1998, a dedicated group of experienced therapists and trainers came together to create a set of courses that would go across the confines of any one existing Meridian Energy Therapy system and teach the principles in the theory and practise of the field in such a way that it would encompass all the many techniques.

The main point behind the training design was to enable practitioners to understand and use meridian energy therapies in their totality, which is above and beyond each of the many singular techniques, those existing now and those still to be developed in the future.

To this end, information and structure was assembled and the training was created by Silvia Hartmann who brought together input, information and original materials from Susan Courtney, Chrissie Hardisty, Silvia Hartmann, Willem Lammers and Tom Bolton.

The AMT MET Practitioner training has since been taken by many hundreds of therapists and healthworkers from Europe and all around the world.

The Training Design

This outstanding licensed training in 8 modules consists of three main, interactive components that together create the understanding and competence necessary to conduct professional interventions, right up to severe manifestations of emotional disturbance, with an absolute focus on training a practitioner who will support others in a safe, cohesive, ethical and effective manner.

These interactive components are as follows:

1. The lectures, materials and information presented by the trainer in the correct order and sequence and including unique, custom made protocols for addiction treatments, memory retrieval, safety with clients and health issues.

2. The exercises that are designed to install the understandings received through the information presented and to brigde these understandings into practical action and congruent knowledge and ability.

3. The Certification paper, which brings a full review of the material covered in the training as well as taking the training from the learning environment and connecting it firmly to the actual practical environment of the practitioner through carefully designed questions and a client case history.

 
Training Contents

The Practitioner Certification training pre-supposes at the minimum a working knowledge of EFT from the participants. To this end, the trainers offer pre-training for groups of health workers who are not yet familiar with the field, often in conjunction and before the start of a Practitioner Training.

The main topics covered in the MET Certification Practitioner Training are as follows:

 
Module 1

Welcome To Extra Ordinary Healing

Module 2
Contacting The Problem

Module 3
Aspects & Testing

Module 4

Health & Physiological Symptoms

Module 6
Addictions & Addictive Cravings

Exam & Certification (Optional)

Trainer's Individuality

The training contents are standardised to ensure a cohesive quality of training and yet of course, allows room for the trainer's individuality, to add their own uniqueness to the training and to allow the flexibility to respond to the group on the day in the most supportive fashion.

Certification & Qualification

Practitioners certified through these named trainers have the right to use the letters C.P. AMT which stands for Certified Practitioner of Meridian Energy Therapies Through The Association For Meridian Energy Therapies. Although this certification does not in and of itself convey license to practise counselling or psychotherapy, it is recognised to qualify an existing practitioner for additional practise insurance to cover Meridian Energy Therapies.

In Conclusion

The practitioner training is designed to provide a thorough grounding in the basic principles of the developing field of Meridian Energy Therapies and to prepare the practitioner to practise these unique forms of mind-body treatments with confidence and excellent success.

It is highly recommended that this training be taken as well as specific techniques training, for it brings together the underlying principles of Meridian Energy therapies and is the first step towards true mastery of not just one technique, but the entire field and all its rich and varied individual contributions.
