Advanced Skill Development in Non-Pathologizing through a series of 3 hour workshops
If you are interested in any of the advanced non-pathologizing workshops listed below please click the link to choose which date works best for you.
Each workshop is $78.75 (GST included). Each workshop is limited to the first 15 people:
Details: In this documentation workshop, we will work from a full first-session transcript to develop a case presentation, treatment plan, and clinical note (using CORE), from a non-pathologizing perspective.
Details: In this identity workshop, we will slow down and unpack the identity work demonstrated in the live sessions, coaching you in how to apply it with your own clients. This will include you going through the value exercise.
Details: In this translation workshop, we invite you to bring your own modality and favourite interventions and learn how to adapt it into a non-pathologizing framework.
Hearing the Client's "No" Workshop
Details: In this workshop, we will learn how to listen to the two universal narratives, then to listen for the client's "no" before identifying any pathology. We will then learn how to draw out the client's preferred narrative and identity.
