Teaching The Dorn Method
Why teach Dorn?
The Dorn Method is too good to keep quiet and we want to see as many people finding
help from this wonderful therapy as possible. Teaching Dorn is an excellent occupation
that can be very rewarding, both professionally and personally. In these respects
we fully encourage Dorn Method therapists to go on to become Authorised Instructors,
and we will promote their courses online at this website.
Dorn Method Regulation
The Dorn Method's originater Mr. Dieter Dorn wishes this therapy to be available
to all with minimum restriction. Whilst the concept of Dorn being available to all
is good in principle, from the perspective of public safety there should at least
be a set of minimum standards laid down before one can go off treating people professionally
or teaching Dorn.
In Germany today there does in fact exist a framework that has been established
to provide this minimum level of standard, particularly applicable to Dorn Method
training. The DMTA also adopts this same minimum criteria applicable for teaching
Dorn.
Becoming an Authorised Dorn Instructor
In order to become an Authorised Dorn Method Instructor, one must gain approval from
either Mr. Dieter Dorn himself, or from a previously authorised Dorn Method Instructor
coming from 'under' Dieter Dorn. Approval is usually given after the following criteria
have been met.
The applicant who wishes to become an Authorised Instructor:
- must have been trained by an authorised Dorn Method Instructor
- have attended the initial and advanced training courses plus refresher/practise
days with relevant case studies
- must have at least 2 years experience practising as a Dorn Method Therapist
- can show experience of having treated at least 150 clients
- have attended a Dorn Method Instructor course

Registering with the DMTA
Authorised Dorn Method Instructors
