Effective Problem Solving Techniques in Therapy | Sun 18 Feb | 9:30-11:30
Join us for a practical, experiential workshop where we look at real-world problem solving techniques that can be used with clients immediately. You will receive step-by-step guidance and the worksheets you need to help clients.
We will also be examining how as therapists we can apply these problem solving techniques to our own professional and personal lives. Not only will this help us deal with the challenges of clinical practice and work-life balance, it will give us a stronger sense of practical empathy to support our understanding of our clients sense of overcoming challenges and problems in everyday life.

New Workshop: Treating Body Dysmorphic Disorder | Sun 7 Apr 2024 10:30 AM - 12:30
Do your clients often find themselves overly fixated on a specific aspect of their appearance? Do they perceive a particular part of their body as significantly 'flawed'? Have they noticed that their efforts to improve or hide this area are consuming excessive time and negatively impacting their life? Do they find it challenging to accept compliments about their appearance? If the answer is yes to any of these questions, they may be grappling with Body Dysmorphic Disorder. The focus of this webinar is to provide insights into body image and Body Dysmorphic Disorder, delve into its potential origins, and discuss its potential effects and treatment approaches.
