Workshop
Working at relational depth
What does it mean to engage with clients at a level of emotional depth? How can therapists facilitate their ability to encounter clients in this way?
This workshop will give participants an opportunity to explore their experiences of relational depth, and how it feels to meet others at this level of intensity and intimacy in both their therapeutic practice and
everyday life. Through small group exercises, pairs-work, discussion and theory input, the workshop will help participants develop a deeper understanding of such encounters, and also how they come to deepen their levels of relating in their therapeutic work.

Workshop
Engaging the average Aussie Bloke
Often a couple arrive for their first counselling appointment and you know that he has been is a reluctant participant attend to keep the peace or as a response to a crisis or ultimatum. For many of these men they don’t necessarily see the need for counselling or understand what it can offer. They are doing their best and yet they can be bemused and confused about what ‘he needs to do to make her happy’. Add to this his fear that this counsellor will side with her and reinforce what he is doing wrong adding to his insecurity and fear. In this workshop I will be sharing an understanding of the heart and soul of the average Aussie bloke as well as strategies and concepts that facilitate better connection and greater engagement so that these types of men can grow and be transformed within and by their relationship.
