Personal Process Guidelines
1.
2.
At Class 1, students are given a form which
they must complete and sign verifying each
of their sessions. This form is required for
admittance to Resident Training Classes 2, 3
and 5. Students may begin fulfilling their
Personal Process requirement in September.
Students are responsible for getting
verification of their sessions from their
Personal Process provider. Students should
keep all verification on file so that it is
available in case it is requested by the
School.

A two-hour session only counts as one
session, because we believe students need
at least two sessions per month, regardless
of whether they are one or two hours
long. However, we understand that rare
circumstances may exist where exceptions
need to be made. Students must request
and state the reason for the exception at
least two weeks prior to the date when
one two-hour session is to be counted as
two sessions. All requests are to be mailed
or faxed to the Small Class Teachers.
Emergency requests are to be made as
soon as possible. Exceptions are granted
on a case-by-case basis according to the
true need of the student. Each case is to
be presented separately. Exceptions will
not be granted if the student waits until
the Personal Process requirements are due.
In order to keep therapeutic relationships
clear and supportive, students cannot be
engaged in a bartering, sexual or romantic
relationship with their Personal Process
provider. Therefore, no credit is given for
Personal Process requirements in these
situations.
All sessions must be individual and in
person with the exception of some
long-distance Brennan Integration Work.
