Logosynthesis training
for therapists and coaches.
Online CPD Logosynthesis training for therapists and coaches in the UK, Ireland, Europe, and worldwide. 18 CPD hours — BACP and UKCP self-certifiable.
Logosynthesis® is a precise, language-based method for the patterns that resist change despite insight, skill, and careful therapeutic work. Andes Institute offers online Logosynthesis training for therapists and coaches ready to work at the level where those patterns are actually maintained.
What is Logosynthesis®?
Logosynthesis® is a language-based clinical method developed by Dr. Willem Lammers that works directly with the implicit memory structures — the frozen representations of past experience — that maintain patterns of distress beyond the reach of insight and regulation. Where most therapeutic approaches address the symptoms a pattern produces, Logosynthesis addresses what holds the pattern in place.
The method uses precise spoken sentences — directed at specific representations in personal space — to dissolve the frozen energy that keeps old experiences, beliefs, and relational patterns active in the present. It is not a relaxation technique, a cognitive reframe, or an exposure protocol. It is a formulation and intervention framework that works at a different level from all of these.
"A client who has done real work, built genuine insight, and still can't shift a particular pattern — as if what was understood has nothing to do with what holds."
Every practitioner in trauma-informed and experiential work meets this limit. Logosynthesis training gives therapists and coaches a precise method for exactly this clinical problem — the patterns that insight alone cannot reach.
Online Logosynthesis® training — 18 CPD hours, LIA certified.

- You work in EMDR, IFS, somatic approaches, transactional analysis, or integrative trauma-informed practice.
- You have clients who have done real therapeutic work and still cannot shift a particular pattern.
- You hold CPD requirements with BACP, UKCP, or a similar professional body and want training that is substantive.
- You are looking for a method that is precise, theoretically grounded, and clinically honest about what it does and doesn't address.
This is not for you if
- You are in early-stage clinical training and looking for a foundational psychotherapy qualification.
- You want a method that claims universal applicability.
- You require RCT evidence before considering a new clinical approach.
Questions about Logosynthesis® training.
What is Logosynthesis®?
Logosynthesis® is a comprehensive clinical model developed by Dr. Willem Lammers that integrates a theory of human development, a case formulation framework, and a language-based intervention method. It is designed to identify and resolve the consolidated implicit memory structures that maintain patterns of distress — anxiety, rumination, core beliefs, relational patterns — beyond the reach of insight and regulation. Full explanation →
Who is Logosynthesis training for?
Logosynthesis training at Andes Institute is designed for qualified therapists, counsellors, and coaches in active practice — particularly those working in EMDR, IFS, somatic, or integrative trauma-informed frameworks. The Logosynthesis Basic Seminar requires existing professional training and an active practice context as prerequisites.
Does Logosynthesis training count as CPD for BACP or UKCP?
Yes. The Logosynthesis Basic Seminar provides 18 CPD hours, self-certifiable for BACP and UKCP CPD portfolios. The Practice Group provides a further 6 CPD hours. The free monthly webinar provides 1 CPD hour. Learning outcomes and a certificate of attendance are provided for each programme.
Is Logosynthesis training available online?
Yes. All Andes Institute Logosynthesis training programmes are delivered entirely online, in English, via Zoom. Sessions are scheduled on Saturdays at times that work for practitioners in the UK, Ireland, Western Europe, and North America simultaneously.
How is Logosynthesis different from EMDR or IFS?
Logosynthesis is not a replacement for EMDR or IFS — it is a complementary method that works at a different level. Where EMDR targets traumatic memory through bilateral stimulation, and IFS works with parts through internal dialogue, Logosynthesis uses precise spoken sentences to dissolve the frozen energy structures that keep old representations active in personal space. Many EMDR and IFS practitioners train in Logosynthesis specifically to work with what remains unresolved after their primary method has done its work. Learn more →
Where can I start if I've never heard of Logosynthesis?
The best starting point is the free monthly webinar — a 60-minute session that introduces the clinical problem, explains what Logosynthesis is and how it works, and includes a live demonstration. It is free, open to all therapists and coaches, and earns 1 CPD hour. Register for the next webinar →
