Counselling CPD Workshop: Transformative Practice

Counselling Psychology Services

Cost: £60 including lunch
Join me for a welcoming and uplifting day focusing on your own self-care. All too often this is neglected as we are so involved in caring for others either in our work or day to day life. Whilst we know we need to prioritise self-care due to the negative impact of therapeutic practice, we may not prioritise it as much as we should. This unique workshop provides a space to reflect on how therapeutic practice can be transformative in ways that are positive and enriching.

In the same way that practitioners can be impacted negatively by their work, it is also recognised that like their clients, they can transform in ways that are positive. Vicarious growth is the term used to describe the positive changes that take place at a cognitive, intrapersonal and interpersonal level.  This workshop will focus on this aspect of practice in particular, and explore how counsellors are changed by their work in ways that are life enriching.  The workshop will draw upon techniques from Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy , Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and other cultural traditions to help counsellors transform the negative effects of their practice in to ways that enhance their personal and professional development.  Positive feedback from previous attendees include:

“Lovely balance of information and interactive work … it has helped me understand and appreciate the vicarious growth in the context of my work and its significance in my continuous transformation as a therapist”

“The best workshop I have been on in a long time.  Practical, informative, research based and a safe environment”
