Running Toward the Fire: Getting Access into the F.R.A.Y with our Clients

Focus: In this training, we will explore and practice the multiple avenues therapist can take to get into the negative cycle that keeps thwarting the client’s attempts to connect and repair. We will also look at the blocks and exits that can occur as therapist attempt to get into the pain and frustration of the negative cycle.  Videos and experiential discussions will be used in this seminar.

Join us for our first opportunity to gather in person for connecting and learning as a community.  We will have an opportunity to spend time with each other and share what our organization is doing.
