 WORKSHOPS

running at

 Birmingham Counselling and Psychotherapy Centre, Bearwood, Birmingham

 Workshops running in the next 12 months from September 2009

 There will be two Sandtray workshops, two Poetic Expression workshops, and one extended Creative Mediums workshop.

 Poetic Expression in the Therapy Room  

Part of the 'In The Therapy Room' series of workshops, this half day workshop will explore how we may work and respond to poetic expression. This is not a workshop exploring literature of poetry, rather it is focussed on the words in the evolving dimensions of the therapeutic engagement. This workshop will be of interest to anyone who wishes to understand the meaning of their client’s, indeed, their own verbal expression.  This experience will easily translate into the clinical work of the participant.  This is a half day morning workshop

 Creative Mediums Explored  

This workshop will allow the individual to explore their Self and give form and figure to their own meaning of Self with the use creative materials. Time will be given to exploring and reflection with the group.  This work is designed to allow the participant to easily translate the experience into there own therapy work.  This is a full day workshop

 The Sand Tray in the Therapy Room

 Part of the 'In The Therapy Room' series of workshops, the use of the sand tray is, generally, a powerful tool of exploration with a client. This half day workshop will allow all participants to experience and reflect on the use of the sand tray in the role of both client and counsellor.  This is a half day morning workshop
