What is a healer and how can we intentionally promote healing principles in our every day life and practice?

Liverpool, NY. (First two weeks will be June 6 and June 20th. We’ll work together to coordinate schedules after that.) 9:00 – 10:30 a.m.

Tired of not being able to talk about the parts of your practice that fall outside the realm of diagnosis, treatment plans, and case note reporting? Wanting to trace your “life meaning trajectory” in your everyday life as a therapist? This twice/month learning group will feature provocative exercises to begin each session, and follow-up time to dialogue about how they apply to your own life and your clinical cases. We will work towards helping you to identify and develop themes of meaning in your life and make core connecting experiences an intentional priority.(Cost: $235. If you sign up with a friend: $ 200).

IV. Medical Family Therapy: Practical Matters and the Many Pathways to Healing. Coming on a Saturday in September!

The morning of this day-long workshop will focus on straight talk about medical family therapy, the therapist’s role, self-of the therapist issues, and case study analysis. In the afternoon we will switch gears to explore the many pathways to healing, including such aspects as: 1) story-telling and meaning-making through phases of illness, 2) working with touch, energy, breathing, and balance,3) the inclusion of rituals in healing, and, 4) the importance of building community and connection for patients and caregivers alike.
