What Makes Havening Different?
Havening Techniques® is a neuroscience-informed psychosensory approach that combines gentle touch with focused attention and distraction to help change the way stressful or emotionally charged experiences are encoded and responded to.
The process can feel surprisingly gentle. Havening allows us to meet what is present while giving the brain an opportunity to respond differently.
Havening can be used on its own or integrated into an existing therapeutic, coaching, or helping practice, giving practitioners another way to support regulation, resilience, and change.

Why Train with Lynn
I have been practicing Havening for more than a decade and teaching it one-to-one for the past five years.
Over that time, I have come to pay close attention to the small things that shape a session: language, pacing, timing, decision points, and what the client is communicating moment by moment.
Because we work together across eight modules, I can see how your understanding develops and help you build on what is already becoming natural.
Many of my students come with an established therapeutic, coaching, or helping practice. I want you to understand Havening deeply enough to integrate it thoughtfully into the way you already work and develop a style that feels genuinely your own.
I bring my experience, attention, and feedback. You bring your curiosity, questions, instincts, and willingness to put what we explore into practice.
I hold the structure. You bring your engagement. We do the learning together.
Who Is This Training For?
This training tends to suit practitioners who are curious, engaged, and willing to take an active part in the process.
Some students come with years of experience as therapists, counsellors, coaches, hypnotherapists, or other helping professionals. Others are newer to their practice.
What matters most is bringing curiosity and care to the training.
You may feel at home here if you value:
- individual attention and thoughtful feedback
- learning through experience
- asking questions as they arise
- time between modules to practise and integrate
- understanding the thinking behind the techniques
- developing a way of using Havening that fits naturally with who you already are as a practitioner
Your own experience, questions, and observations become part of what we explore together.
