What:
This 2-day workshop is designed to support clinicians in learning a step-by-step, self-counseling process that can be used when countertransference is interfering with the therapeutic relationship. It's a deep dive into the personal material that surfaces when we work with our clients. This workshop is a not a typical training in that it is both didactic and experiential. It is a warm invitation to bravely explore the shadowy side of our work without judgment.
Our clients act as mirrors, reflecting back to us unresolved issues in consciousness that result in us either over-identifying with the client or distancing ourselves from them. Countertransference is, in essence, our thoughts and feelings about our clients. It is our judgments about them AND about ourselves. These thoughts and judgments often show up as thoughts like, "I really hope she cancels," or "He's really intimidating," or "I have no idea what to do. I'm incompetent."…
