The Benson-Henry Institute offers advanced specialty trainings in different areas for trainees who have attended our CME courses and desire more intensive training in a specific area. These trainings are performed in a small group setting.
Advanced Specialty Trainings
Summary
In response to a high level of interest among attendees of our Harvard Medical School trainings, the Benson-Henry Institute offers specialty training courses at scheduled times.
These intensive one or two-day sessions are customized to prepare participants to integrate mind/body interventions into their practice and to conduct mind/body groups as we do here at the Benson-Henry Institute. Trainees will also receive invaluable manuals that detail all necessary information about leading groups - session by session.
