“BEING AND DOING”
(FIGURING STUFF OUT & WHAT HELPS THE FIGURING IN THE THERAPEUTIC RELATIONSHIP)
With:
Jon Pearson PTSTA
Training Director: Liverpool Therapy Training & Liverpool Centre for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Broadly speaking, there are two domains at play in each relationship; the visible, declarative domain in which we communicate thoughts and feelings and the deeper, transferential domain, much of which lies like a submerged iceberg in the relational unconscious.
Therapies addressing the declarative domain are ‘instrumental’ in nature; those addressing the transference are ‘relational’.
Therapeutic approaches differ in the relative importance they attribute to each of these domains but most counsellors, psychotherapists and psychotherapy researchers agree that attention to both is necessary for a quality healing to be experienced.
In this workshop, we will examine the ways in which we work in terms of the interplay between the instrumental and relational in our therapeutic encounters. A mixture of theoretical input, shared experience and experiential exercises may help you to assess the effectiveness of your practice and identify the leading edges of your professional development.
This workshop is suitable for counsellors and psychotherapists / students who carry a caseload in both the private and public sectors.
