In clinical practice the therapeutic relationship and group therapy cohesiveness are essential for positive outcomes. Exploring Here-and-Now interpersonal interactions in therapy settings can enhance deep interpersonal learning, self-understanding and personal healing. Frequently both clients and therapists may react in ways that mirrors how they behave interpersonally in their social environments.
However, as practitioners we may find it challenging to address these moments as they arise in our clinical work.
In this workshop Trevor Armitage will explore with you the therapeutic power of facilitating interpersonal learning and provide practical guidance and hands-on experience of facilitating the Here-and-Now process. In a safe supportive workshop environment you can discover your strengths and learning edges when working in the Here-and-Now.

Participant Feedback:
“The workshop was fantastic! I wouldn’t change a thing! I was really impressed by how you started off with process with you as facilitator, then went to theory, then we each got a taste of facilitating. The dual process of having my own real-life triggers running parallel to my learning meant that what I learned really stuck with me. Thank you for a great experience, as always, challenging, thought provoking and ultimately shifting and changing me at depth.”
