Exploring Core State and the Role of Implicit Relational Messages in AEDP: A Call for Collaboration  

I’m excited to share news of my soon-to-be-launched doctoral study exploring a key dimension of AEDP: Core State phenomena, and the role of implicit relational messages (IRMs) in their unfolding. 

Dear AEDP community,

On behalf of Jerry Lamagna and myself, it is not only our pleasure but also our honor to share with you the news that Nichola aka “Nicky” Cameron is now an AEDP Certified therapist.

Nicky’s path to certification involved individual supervision with both Jerry and myself, as well as a year of the Vision Collective+ Core Training, a supervision group co-led by Karen Pando-Mars and me.

On behalf of Diana Fosha and myself, I could not be more delighted to share with you that Ilene Yasemsky is now a certified  AEDP Supervisor.

On behalf of Malin Endrédi and myself, it is my tremendous pleasure to announce that Magda Evans is now an AEDP Certified Therapist! Malin has been Magda’s primary supervisor, and each of their reflections on their journey together are included below. I (Richard) have had the honour of supporting Magda as her certification supervisor, which has been a joy. Magda is remarkably steady, sensitive, spacious, and artful in her clinical work; and her warm, heartfelt, caring presence on behalf of her patients is powerful. She has a deep trust in the experiential process and in somatic, embodied work, and a thorough understanding of AEDP. Moreover, I am in awe of her exceptional tracking skills! Magda also has a tremendous appetite for learning and growth – her own and that of her patients. There’s so much more I could say, but instead, I encourage you to take in the richness of what follows below!
