Janice Wasser

CCI trainer:

Janice Wasser took her fundamentals course in Israel in 1998. ‘I began assisting many years ago and have been teaching fundamentals in the prisons with Avi Butavia for over 6 years. I believe one of my greatest contributions to society is my work in propagating this invaluable theory with its set of simple, yet deeply profound, tools to deal with life issues. Beyond the work in prisons, I am active in an Arab-Jewish support group which has been meeting monthly for over 30 years and in the last 7 years have been active in the international community of CCI to promote the work we do in Israel and connect with co-counselling communities around the world’. @

Johannes Risse

CCI trainer: johannesJohannes Risse (1942) started CCI co-counselling in 1977, 'had my fundamentals with Siglind Willms. Together with her I started teaching in 1979. Since that time we had each year 2 fundamentals and 2 advanced training's. By co-counselling I experienced a great deepening of my Christian belief. It became more and more the foundation of my pastoral care as roman catholic priest and pastoral psychologist. Free attention is for me a name for God. Until 1995 I only knew our own community at Muenster. In that year Siglind and I visited J. Heron in Italy. Since we started opening to the international community. In 1998 we attended for the first time an international CCI meeting in the Netherlands and in 2000 we had the first international in our community. I focus in my work on spiritual guidance and co-counselling'. @

Joke Stassen

CCI trainer: jokeJoke Stassen: co-counselling helps me to be in charge of my life, to be in touch with my feelings and my intuition and to make clear decisions. Teaching CCI co-counselling is passing on a gift, for which I am grateful. I am a psychologist and did my CCI teachers training in 1993-1995 in Birmingham (UK) and later in the Netherlands. Titles of follow-up workshops I have facilitated indicate the wide range of topics in which co-counselling can be a useful tool: e.g. body and spirit, my loveable computer, peace and conflict. I am interested in integrating non-violent communication with co-counselling and developed together with Fred Wallace and Niek Sickenga the workshop Aware communication, which includes co-counselling, non-violent communication, and decision making skills. I am a travelling teacher: I am willing to come to other countries to teach. @
