Professionals like psychologists, speech and occupational therapists, teachers, voice and singing teachers, language teachers can now implement the Tomatis Listening Program in their practice in Australia, New Zealand, Islands of South Pacific and South East Asia.
The Tomatis Method is at the crossroads of LISTENING & COMMUNICATION.
It all depends on what you intend to use it for.
The General Introductory Course (GIC) is designed for the general public, as well as professionals who are interested in learning more about this unique method of listening therapy. It is also a pre-requisite course for those who wish to continue training to become a Tomatis Listening trainer or Consultant.
To train as a Tomatis Listening trainer, you do not need any formal qualifications in related fields. However it is essential that you have good interpersonal skills; have experience working with children, or can relate well to them.
To train as a Certified Tomatis Listening Consultant, it is preferable to have qualifications in related professions such as psychology, teaching, speech pathology, occupational therapy, teaching music or foreign languages. It is essential to be already trained and to have had some experience in counseling.
What is the first step of the Tomatis Training Program?
GIC– General Introductory Course (16 hours)
This is a 2-day overview of the Tomatis Method. This course provides a wide coverage of the history, principles, and applications of the authentic Tomatis Method.
It is open to the general public as well as the professionals who then can:
- train to implement it in their own work
- refer their clients to one or several practitioners of the Tomatis Listening Program
- undergo a research project (master, thesis)
A listening assessment is a prerequisite to attend the GIC and takes up to 2 hours. Please contact (02) 9280 3303 or email : info@tomatis.com.au for details.
