About DR BREN
BREN HUDSON, PHD
DR BREN, trained as an Integral Life Coach and educated with a doctorate in Jungian Psychology, focuses on healing individuals and couples to reach their full potential through a soulful journey.
After a 15 year career in Corporate America as an organizational development consultant with an emphasis in information technology and process improvement, in 2005 DR BREN transitioned into a private coaching and counseling practice following her own soul's call to be of service to a world in transition.
LIFE COACHING
There is a range of life coaches out there. At one end of the spectrum there are life coaches who have absolutely no training, no education, and no certifications. At the other end of the spectrum there are life coaches who have gone all the way, that is, training, education, and certification.
DR BREN has successfully completed training in two different (one for personal and one for executives) life coaching programs:
- Success Unlimited Network, for individuals, was one of the first coaching certification programs in the United States. Teri-E Belf, the founder, sat on the committee that developed the first ethical guidelines for the International Coaching Federation (the recognized credentialing board)
- New Ventures West is a professional coaching program for executives loosely based on Ken Wilber’s Integral Psychology, but with a Buddhist twist.
Individual and Couples Counseling
In addition, to being trained as both a personal and executive life coach, DR BREN holds a Doctorate in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, a Jungian Analytical Psychology program in Santa Barbara. Jungian Psychology is the mystical / spiritual end of psychology. Where traditional / clinical psychology focuses on Ego, Jungian Psychology focuses on both Ego and Soul.
DR BREN's Life Coaching Program aims toward psychological wholeness. While psychotherapists and MFT's (marriage family therapists) focus on the mental disorders, and most life coaches focus on behavior modification, DR BREN focuses on normal people with normal life issues and those who looking to self-actualize.
