Description

How do we navigate the emotional landscape with a client when their present is more about the painful past or dreaded future? In this workshop, you will learn core skills to assist your clients in navigating the delicate balance of present, past and future. These valuable tools will strengthen your client’s sense of agency while they work to put past experiences in perspective, be more fully in the present, and instil hope for the future. In this session, you will discover how to:

  • Help clients approach and observe their emotional responses without getting overwhelmed
  • Identify and work with parts of self that get activated in the present
  • Develop a future vision beyond symptom relief, with more adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and responding
