Getting out of the client’s way

Introduction:

“Getting Out of the Client’s Way” is a one-day workshop for trainee and accredited psychotherapists. It helps participants become more aware of how they may unintentionally step into the client’s process. Using reflection, theory, group discussion, creativity, the Seven-Eyed Model, and Interpersonal Process Recall (IPR), the workshop supports deeper self-awareness and presence in client work.

Course Content:

• Identify and explore common ways therapists may unintentionally get into the client’s process, like rescuing or fixing, can show up in therapy and in supervision through parallel process.
• Use supervision such as the Seven-Eyed Model and IPR to explore your own reactions and maintain a supportive, client centered approach.
• Deepen one’s reflective process on internal responses and how they influence the therapeutic relationship.
• Develop confidence in holding space without needing to solve the client’s issues.
