3rd Introductory Workshop – Group Analytic Psychotherapy
April 16, 2020 - April 18, 2020
Rs.10000
UPDATE
As you may have expected, we have had to cancel our 3 day residential introductory weekend on Group Analytic Psychotherapy. We cannot recreate the same experience virtually, and therefore will not be offering the same online.
However, we are hosting two Meet & Greet + Q&A sessions on 18 and 19 April from 14:30 – 16:30.
This is an opportunity
– to meet the Faculty as well as former students of the Foundation Course
– to gain a basic understanding of Group Analysis
– to understand the 4-5 year long training programme, and
– to learn about the process of qualifying as a Group Analyst
Free and Open for all those interested in group work and group processes.
This 3 day workshop offers participants the opportunity to experience being in small therapeutic groups. In addition, the seminar sessions will introduce the basic principles of Group Analysis.
The intention of the workshop is twofold:
a) to help participants judge whether they would like to embark on a longer journey in group psychotherapy,
b) to get a taste of what might be expected of them if they were to enroll for the Foundation Year.
Who is it for ?
For those interested and involved in working with groups
Why Group Analysis ?
Group Analysis is a powerful therapeutic medium that focuses on the relationship between the individual and the group, emphasizing the essentially social nature of human experience. Our philosophy is that as personal difficulties arise in groups, groups are the best place to explore, understand and try and resolve them.
Some Learning Outcomes:
– Recognize the effect of group dynamics on self and others
– Increased self-awareness and self-reflexivity
– Understand group dynamics from a Group-Analytic perspective
– Understand the meaning of fundamental Group Analytic terms such as Dynamic Administration, Mirroring, Resonance, Matrix etc.
