The Shifaa Method

Purpose & Goals

Certification is more than a piece of paper — it’s a testament to your dedication and training in the Shifaa Method. It’s not about reaching perfection, it’s about being ready to step more fully into practice. At this stage, practitioners move from foundational learning into a supportive, hands-on format where real client work, compassionate supervision, and guided reflection become the core of the journey.

The Clinical Integration level is a virtual program which you complete with the same cohort of students over 3 months. During this time, you will develop confidence and refined skill in the Shifaa Method, receive personal supervision and feedback to help you take this method to your clinical practice.

Level 3 is for practitioners who feel ready to take their work to a deeper place where practice becomes more anchored, presence more embodied, and the method begins to feel like your own. With close guidance, personalized mentoring, and real-time feedback, this training offers a space to refine how you show up with clients, strengthen your intuitive confidence, and bring your practice into fuller alignment with the heart of The Shifaa Method.

Feedback Integration

Refine and deepen your implementation of the method through ongoing feedback loops.

Authentic Alignment

Cultivate the confidence to align the method with your unique practitioner identity.

Certification Pathway

Receive the opportunity to earn certification as a Shifaa Method Practitioner, upon fulfillment of all certification requirements.

This experience is designed to:

Enhance your therapeutic range in real time
Strengthen your capacity to adapt the method across populations

Note: While this level is required for those interested in future opportunities for teaching or supervising in the method, it is not a teacher training program.

What You Will Gain?

This level is designed to bring the core competencies of The Shifaa Method into a state of integration where inner clarity and outer action become aligned. It is not about arriving at perfection, but about embodying authenticity, alignment, and a genuine readiness to be recognized as a certified practitioner.

Through this stage, you will naturally deepen and develop the following skills:

Embodied Practice

Advanced skill in applying the method with nuance, fluidity, and heart-presence.

Responsive Presence

Increased fluency in responding to resistance, dysregulation, and spiritual disconnection.

Contextual Adaptability

The capacity to adapt the method across various contexts: trauma, couples, groups, children.

Who Is This Training For?

This level is by invitation and application only. Participants must:

Level 2 Completion

You must have successfully completed Level 2 of The Shifaa Method. This ensures that you have a solid foundation in the method’s principles and practical frameworks before advancing to the next stage.

Active Client Practice

During the training period, you are expected to be actively working with a minimum of three clients. This requirement allows you to immediately apply what you’re learning in real-world settings, submit recorded sessions, and deepen your clinical confidence

Maintain Professional Credentials

Participants must continue to uphold their professional qualifications (as outlined in previous levels). This includes adhering to the ethical and licensing requirements of your respective field, ensuring that your practice remains aligned with professional and legal standards.

How Is Level 3 Different from Level 2?

Practical Foundation

Level 2 is where you move from theory into practice. You’ll learn to apply the therapeutic arc, work within learning pods, and receive structured feedback. Level 3 on the other hand bridges understanding and real-world application.

Deepened Supervision

While Level 2 introduces supervised practice and feedback, Level 3 shifts the focus entirely to supervision, feedback and evaluation. Here, you move beyond learning the method-you start embodying it.

Refinement Over Content

Level 3 is not about adding more theory. Instead, it’s about refining your skills through repetition, real-time feedback, and personalized guidance, ensuring your application of the method becomes second nature.

Personalized Mentorship

In Level 3, you’ll submit recorded client sessions, and receive 1:1 supervision and mentoring. The pace is slower and more intentional, requiring deeper presence and a strong commitment to your growth as a practitioner.

This is not about doing more. It’s about doing it more authentically. Until the method begins to feel like your own

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Level 3 is delivered entirely online to allow for maximum accessibility while maintaining the depth of guidance and supervision required for certification. All sessions, mentoring, and supervision are conducted virtually.

Yes. Completion of Level 2 is a strict requirement for admission into Level 3. This ensures that all participants share a common foundation before moving into the advanced, supervision-based format.

Level 3 is not focused on introducing new theory. Instead, it emphasizes integration, practice, and refinement. Most of the learning happens through real-time application, personalized feedback, and supervised mentoring.

What happens if I don’t meet the certification requirements?
