ICI Certification
"It is my hope for ICI
that we will be stunned and awed by the complexity of God’s design for relationships."
-Dr. David Manock
What It Is
ICI's Certification Program is designed to seep participants in the Manock Integrative Method, a merging of Emotionally Focused Therapy, Intersubjectivity Psychoanalysis, and Image of God on a foundation of Neuroscience and Attachment Theory. Designed with Clinicians and Pastoral Counselors in mind, it aims to elevate pastoral counseling to a clinical standard as well as deepen the psychological and theological integration of interns and therapists.

The ICI Certification track consists of: 20 Core Courses and 5 Pillar Courses (all day seminars), more than 80 hours of group supervision, up to 40 hours of individual supervision, and two intensive 3-day working retreats. Each Core Course provides 10 hours of CE units.
There are four levels of ICI certification available with each level building on the last.
"Based upon neuroscience,
psychology can move beyond Western self-identity, self-worth, self-agency, self-efficacy, and self-autonomy to self-other worth, self-other identity, etc.
We move from 1-person psychology to 2-person psychology."
-Dr. David Manock
