ONLINE WORKSHOP - Group Consultation Series (OW6224) - 5 contact hours

This two-session consultation workshop, which meets June 2nd and 9th, primarily focuses on working with groups. The phenomena of parallel process and the use of induced feelings are examined. Additionally, the workshop recognizes the roles of transference and resistance as well as countertransference feelings that arise in the therapist during the group. Participants are invited to present cases of their choosing. Case examples of diversity and inclusion are encouraged and will be viewed through that lens. This series is open to those working in all settings including private practice, agencies, education, organizations, etc. It is open to those with diverse theoretical frameworks and is based, in part, on the premise that a working knowledge and foundation of psychodynamic principles and modern group techniques are applicable to all groups‒ long-term, short-term, themed and others. Attention will be given to issues around technology and working online.
