When talk therapy isn’t enough, or becomes “event reporting” rather than therapy, it’s time to think at the edges of the box. This is where expressive therapies and action methods are helpful. As a Supervisor, it is useful to know not only when to employ such methods for maximum effect, but how to guide your supervisees in doing so.
This training will focus on several Expressive Therapy modalities, including Art, Movement, Narrative, Poetry, Sound/Music, Sandtray and Theater/Drama. Through case studies and experiential exercises, you will learn how to use these modalities in supervision, as well as how to guide your supervisees in their use during sessions. Dress comfortably, as you may find yourself wanting to move!
