Description: Happy couple and family relationships are among of
life’s greatest treasures. Yet they are beyond the grasp of many people.
Divorce rates are on the rise worldwide. This discovery-oriented workshop
focuses on the theme of couple and family relationships. We will explore four
key dimensions of ourselves in family life – our inner experience, our
communication, influences from our family of origin, and our deep human
yearnings.
Pooling our learning from this experiential workshop as a group, we
will gain insight into how to respond to families who reach out to us as
counsellors.
Format: The workshop blends the use
of short lectures with multiple expressive arts modalities including movement
and role-plays, art and poetry, music and meditation to facilitate
self-awareness, effective communication, and expressing your presence in the
world. The vision, values, knowledge and skills of Congruence will be presented
to enhance participants’ ‘use of self’ as a catalyst for change in life and
work.

in the Faculty of Health Sciences (Addictions Counselling Program), Canada.
