You already know how to hold space. Clients trust you, they open up to you, and good work happens in your sessions. Maybe you’ve felt a pull toward the body too: a client says “I feel it in my chest”, or something shifts in the room that words can’t quite reach, and you sense there’s more available in those moments.

There is. And you don’t need to start over to find it. Every facilitator brings the body in from wherever they already are, building on the skills they already have.

This quiz will show you where you are right now and the next step that will make the biggest difference to your work.

About three minutes · Answer based on what you do now, not what you’d like to do

This quiz is for you if you’re a coach, therapist, counsellor or facilitator who already works with clients one-to-one or in groups. You don’t need any somatic training to take it. Wherever you’re starting from is the right place.

How to answer

• Answer based on what you do now, not what you’d like to do. It’s tempting to choose the answer that sounds most experienced, but your next step only fits if the starting point is accurate. Every answer describes a real strength. There are no wrong ones.
• Go with your first instinct. The answer that comes first is usually the truest.
• If two answers fit, choose the one closest to your most recent sessions.

It takes about three minutes. At the end you’ll get your facilitation profile and a free lecture from our Trauma Aware Somatic Foundations Facilitation Training, chosen for where you are now.
