HELPING together – Join us!

Read this page in German or Ukrainian.

We want to help Ukrainian refugees to cope with distress and uncertainty by offering six online training courses, each with two 4-hour sessions.

The training focuses on learning the HEAL method, the process of turning positive and supportive experiences into lasting inner strengths:  

“Have a positive experience, Enrich it, Absorb it, and Link (optional) the positive experience to negative material in order to soothe and even replace it.” HEAL is the essence of the positive neuroplasticity training PNT developed by the neuropsychologist Rick Hanson Ph. D.  

Refugees learn to deliberately focus their attention on healing experiences, they relearn how to relax and how to feel safe and connected. 

At the same time the program aims at encouraging engagement whilst supporting the volunteers and field workers, who are also exposed to a lot of the stress due to the crisis. 

Don’t hesitate, register and join us! 

You can find out more about the project „HELP – Helping refugees to HEAL“ here.

Any Questions?

What to expect during the Online-Live-Training?

In a free 8-hour online live training, you will be trained on two dates in the HEAL method. In the first part you will learn the basics of the HEAL method and how to use it. In the second part you will you practice your knowledge of the HEAL method in depth and reflect in small groups.

What are the technical requirements to take part in the Online-Live-Training?

To successfully participate in the training, you need a quiet environment and a stable internet connection.

Is the Online-Live-Training free of charge?

Participation in the online training is free of charge for you. We would be very happy if you fill out our feedback form after the training and/or even get involved in one of the working groups. Participation in the online training is not a prerequisite for participation in the working groups – everyone is welcome!
