Join us for a workshop with Carmen J. Ablack — Advanced Practice in Couples and Relationship Therapy — a workshop for experienced psychotherapists.
“This weekend, we’ll take an experiential approach to exploring the key issues you face as therapists working with couples and groups of people in close relationships.
Among other things, we’ll focus on the challenges related to aversion and disapproval—whether brought into the therapy room by you and/or by your clients. We’ll explore how to learn to tolerate and “persevere” through these processes; how to transform them into a space for learning and exploration that fosters the growth of both clients and therapists.
This will be a deeper dive into the complexity of working with couples and relationships.”
There will be opportunities for supervision and group analysis of practical examples of work with clients, as well as moderated role-playing to explore emerging issues and problems.
