It is immensely satisfying to watch a therapist transition through stages. They go from thinking, “I think I know what’s happening” to confidently saying, “I know exactly what to do next”.

That’s why we’re so looking forward to beginning our 2026 Clinical Resource Therapy Program. We are super excited to share this amazing parts work model

Most of the mental health professionals who join us are already skilled. They care deeply. They’ve trained in solid modalities – EMDR, CBT, IFS, NLP, Drs and clinical hypnotherapists.

Yet they still meet the same stuck points that don’t respond to insight alone.

A client understands the issue, but their nervous system does not shift. Old patterns play out.
They promise themselves they will do it differently, then something takes over.
They go blank, get flooded, appease, withdraw, numb, or erupt, and afterwards feel ashamed and confused. They feel blocked and stuck

Resource Therapy gives you a clean way to work with this moment without patronising it.

In RT, personality is organised in Resource States, or parts. These parts are not “problems to remove”. They are intelligent adaptations shaped by relationship, environment, and lived experience. When a protective part takes the wheel of our ship, it is usually trying to keep the system safe using the best strategy it has.

The clinical question becomes simple and powerful:
Which part is here right now? What is it protecting, supporting, and what does it need so the person can regain steadiness and choice?

So What will you learn in our Clinical Resource Therapy Program?

This training is built for real-world practice, not just conceptual understanding.

Across the program, you will learn to:

  • map the client’s internal organisation using Resource States with clarity and speed
  • Recognise and respond to common RT patterns, including Vaded in Fear, Vaded in Rejection, Vaded in Disappointment, Vaded in Confusion, Retro Avoiding patterns, and Conflicted States and how these terms map onto depression, anxiety, phobias, addictions, grief, chronic pain and much more.
  • Use the 15 Resource Therapy Treatment Actions as a structured decision framework in-session
  • Work actively while staying trauma-informed, paced, and attachment sensitive
  • Integrate RT with what you already do in your unique way, including EMDR, DBR, CBT, schema, psychodynamic work, and couples modalities

Why we’re excited to begin

Because when therapists have a reliable map and a sequence of actions, sessions change.

You stop chasing content.
You stop negotiating with symptoms.
You start making direct contact with the state that is driving the moment, and the client feels it.

The work becomes calmer, kinder, and more precise. Clients often experience a quiet but profound shift: they feel met.

Not managed. Not pushed. Met.

Dates for 2026

Online or hybrid to go to Bali parts retreat: 22–24 February 2026 and 22–24 March 2026.
Bali Intensive: 10–12 June 2026 and 15–17 June 2026.

Many of you reading the blog know of RT’s healing properties when it comes to processing our parts past wounds. And empowering them, to move beyond outdated life patterns. Truly rewarding work. We appreciate your support.

I have been working all my spare time to get this completed. As of yesterday it’s there. I started this is the beginning of the year. So phew, feeling relieved.

They do say every hour of a presentation requires about 10 hours. I think that’s about right. So I don’t feel bad it’s taken a while!

Now to get my presenter part relaxed and rehearsed. Did I hear Anchoring anyone?

If you are in Adelaide 23 -26 March you are welcome to join us. Please come up and say hello, we’d love to meet you.

We celebrate Chris’s birthday while there with a trip to the Barossa Valley. Please give us a shout out in the comments if you have any South Australia recommendations. Much appreciated.

And we have our up coming clinical starting in April Dates here.

With Love and Light,

Practicing RT with Clients Online – Upcoming Webinar Free!

for Therapists & PsychologistsFree Webinar practising Resource Therapy Training with clients online Free webinar

Welcome, RT community and those interested in Parts therapy.

Boy to say are we in a very different world is an understatement. With the COVID19 pandemic affecting the world, we need to adapt and do it quickly to survive and help our clients thrive.

It’s a necessity to be online for your practice to survive.

For many Resource Therapists, using Resource Therapy (RT) online may be a first. Or you may have had some sticky moments, or perhaps you are new to RT, please join us. It’s free too.

As a result I am excited to be offering a free webinar to support your online therapy adventures.

While obviously in-person therapy is ideal, let me reassure you online sessions work just as well. Possibly better!

I have been using RT online for several years now and can honestly say I have been blown away by the results.

I had a call from a client in Darwin, I’d worked with via live streaming several years ago. She called recently for a top-up. She said the RT session been life-changing, saying she was now in a healthy relationship and her sense of confidence self-belief had been restored.

Free Webinar practicing RT with clients online Free webinar. Get results from processing therapy's like RT. Talking therapy may be dead?

This is the beauty of RT. One session wonders where long-standing issues resolve and are reprocessed, you don’t get with talking therapy alone.

Vaded State work is integral to the online processing of Rejection and Fear. My experience and client’s reports tell us it is very worthwhile.

As we know the value of RT what could be better than getting it to a worldwide audience. You in the comfort of your office, lounge or kitchen table. Your clients in a lockdown can access your great service. It’s win, win.

It’s going to be super practical. We will go over what you need to set up online for live streaming and working with the technology.

I will be focusing on Zoom and applying RT online in session as it’s the most accessible for many.

It will be lively and interactive with your questions and experiences welcome.

I am busy creating content and will be delivering it soon. Watch this space.

To register your interest please email me and I will send out a link shortly. Email Philipa Thornton at philipathornton@gmail.com
