UNCERTAINTY: Exploring our responses to an unpredictable world
Format Workshop
Presenters Dr. Ernesto Spinelli, PhD
Description

We live in an unpredictable, ever-changing world and our response to this uncertainty has never been more relevant, both in general terms and as expressed by clients in the therapeutic relationship.

This two day workshop will present key ideas from existential psychotherapy, focusing on particular issues raised by uncertainty and its relationship to clients and therapists in their struggle to engage with one another and the life-issues being presented.

The workshop will address how best to draw out and work with the (often) implicit fears and concerns experienced by clients when facing uncertainty, so that the creative and constructive possibilities of uncertainty may be enhanced and incorporated into their worldviews.
The workshop will utilise theoretical and case study discussion as well as practical exercises. Participants are strongly encouraged to bring their own case material - and life experiences of uncertainty - for discussion.
