What Telfer brings / Four roles

I

Talks and workshops

Keynotes, breakout sessions and hands-on workshops that give people a new map for the territory they are already walking, then invite them to locate themselves inside it.

Conferences / festivals / trainings
II

Sessions for clinicians

Practitioner-facing sessions with clear learning objectives, for therapists, coaches and holistic health professionals who want to work with parts, dreams and astrology responsibly.

Professional conferences / faculty intensives
III

MC and host

A warm, steady voice to open the space, carry the program, introduce teachers and keep a room connected from first welcome to final word.

Festivals / gatherings / community events
IV

Ceremony design

Weddings and other rites of passage, shaped with you around your story, your people and the land you gather on, then guided on the day.

Ideas with roots / Signature talks

A body of living questions

Give your audience a perspective they won't hear from anyone else.

Each talk can run as a keynote, a workshop or a multi-day immersion, and every one ends with a practice people can take home.

I

Destroying without malice

How to release an outdated identity without making an enemy of who you used to be.

Transitions / leadership / culture
II

Internal Family Solar Systems

An IFS-informed meeting of parts work and archetypal astrology that treats the psyche as a living, relational system. For clinicians: “What can therapists do about astrology?”

Therapy / astrology / mental health
III

Dream Craft

Moving beyond dream dictionaries to meet the night world as a somatic conversation with psyche, soul and Earth. For clinicians: “What to do when a client shares a powerful dream.”

Dreamwork / ecopsychology / spirituality
03

Stages and faculty / The living classroom

Learning with the land

The trail is part of the teaching.

From festival stages to clinical conferences to week-long immersions, Telfer brings conversation, ceremony, somatic practice and contact with the more-than-human world into one field of inquiry.

Share the date, the audience and what you want people to leave with, and Telfer will reply personally.
