"The best word to describe this weekend was TRANSFORMATIONAL! Each of us had an opportunity to work with the facilitator and talk about how to remove the blocks in our life that [are] holding us back. It was an incredible and informative weekend. Highly recommend!" - Michelle, LMSW

"What stood out the most is the simplicity of how to achieve peace and calm, and to uncover the blocks that hold one back from experiencing the best one can be." - Mary Grace, LCSW-R

"The amazing power of awareness and stepping outside of the many thoughts we are bombarded with daily. This course is giving me space to breath and have a healthier relationship with my thoughts. This is evidence of the therapist needing a therapist. Thank you both!" - Deirdra, LCSW-R

"It helped to put several things in perspective for me related to my life satisfaction, and I would like for my colleagues and loved ones to enjoy the same sense of peace I felt at the end of this class." - Sol, LCSW

Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need to attend all 4 sessions in order to get my final SWEET Institute certificate of completion for the whole Certificate Course?
Yes. Otherwise, you risk accumulating gaps, which may, in turn, lead to an inability to use this model adequately to help your clients. You will therefore not be able to receive a final certificate of completion.
Does this Certificate Course offer CEUs?
Please see the Key Information section above for detailed approval information.
Are there any other requirements to getting a SWEET Institute final certificate besides completing each and every one of the classes?
(1) After each of the classes, you must complete an evaluation if you attended live. If you attended any of the classes as a self-study, you must pass a post-test and complete an evaluation for those classes. You must score at least 80% on the post-test to obtain a certificate for that particular class. (2) At the end of the Certificate Course, email us all of the certificates associated with this course at [email protected] and request your SWEET Institute final certificate of completion.

Anyone who registered for this Certificate Course through any of the payment plans, and who wishes to withdraw for whatever reason, is entitled for a full reimbursement with no questions asked other than for improvement purposes.
