Become a
Childosophy Practitioner with Dr Maxine Thérèse

29 July - 2 August 2026
Gold Coast, Australia

The Childosophy Practitioner Training was developed for professionals and parents who sense that traditional behaviour-based models do not go far enough — and who are ready to meet the child with greater depth, precision, and humanity.


Grounded in over two decades of clinical observation, research, and applied practice, this training introduces a developmental framework that recognises the child as a whole human being whose nervous system carries experience across time — shaping how they relate, adapt, learn, and become.


Rather than focusing on surface behaviours alone, Childosophy teaches practitioners to perceive the organising intelligence within the child — to understand what their nervous system is communicating, what their development is asking for, and what conditions allow them to thrive.


This is not simply the acquisition of techniques. It is the cultivation of professional vision.
 

Practitioners learn to move beyond managing behaviour toward interpreting the deeper architecture of development — supporting children in ways that are ethical, relational, and enduring.
 

To train in Childosophy is to step into a more evolved understanding of childhood itself.
 

Not as something to control.


But as a life already in formation.

For those called to deeper work

This training is designed for those who feel the limitations of behaviour-first approaches and are drawn toward a more integrated understanding of development.


Practitioners often arrive at Childosophy after recognising that children cannot be reduced to symptoms, strategies, or diagnostic language — and that meaningful support requires a framework capable of holding the full complexity of the developing human.


This pathway is suited to:

  • Therapists seeking a deeper developmental lens.

  • Educators ready to move beyond behaviour management.

  • Professionals supporting children and families.

  • Parents called to profound understanding.

  • Childosophy does not replace your existing expertise — it expands your capacity to see.

“Finding Childosophy felt like coming home.
It gave me the tools to understand my own emotions and see my children through a compassionate, intuitive lens.
As a Childosophy practitioner, I now support children and parents to explore their inner world with kindness and curiosity - creating safe spaces where they feel truly seen, valued, and heard.”

The program

The certification unfolds across three progressive levels, each one deepening your capacity to see, hold and lead.

This is not just professional training. It is personal transformation. An expansion of self awareness. An awakening of your ability to truly hold space for children and families.

Through immersive sessions, guided practice and powerful reflection, you do not just learn concepts. You embody them. You leave equipped to foster resilient, balanced and thriving children and transformed in the way you understand human development and wellbeing.

Level 1 - Foundation level

Participants dive into the heart of Childosophy and the Foundational Needs Model, discovering how behaviour reflects deeper needs and beginning to apply the theory practically through the 10-step modality.

Modules include:

  • Children's Wellbeing

  • The Language of Energy

  • The Energy Technique

  • The Wellbeing System and the 10-steps

Level 2 - Practitioner level

This level sharpens practical skills, strengthening your ability to listen, observe, and hold space for clients in any context.

By the end, participants step confidently into professional practice, equipped with a unique, soul-centred framework to guide families and communities with both credibility and compassion.

Modules include:

  • Midwife for the Soul

  • Neurobiology of Intuition

  • Energy in Motion

  • Epigenetics

  • Variety of Practice​

Level 3 - Case consultancy level

Participants complete three assessed case studies across the five day training.

The practical work for each case is undertaken during the training itself. Each case is then written up at home in line with our professional guidelines.

Completed case studies are submitted for formal assessment and individual feedback before certification is awarded.

Once approved, graduates are recognised as certified Childosophy Practitioners and are eligible to practise.
