If you have ever felt anxious about how to interpret your clients’ dreams or felt pressure to ‘come up with the goods’ then this workshop is for you. If you have never spent time working with your own dreams but feel a curiosity to do so, then here is your chance to make that start.

This workshop looks at many aspects of dream life including nightmares, repetitive dreams, dream language and links to our unconscious life.

The first half of this video looks at some theoretical models, including Freud, Jung, Perls (Gestalt), cognitive theory, objectivist/constructivist approach, and the Humanistic approaches to working with and understanding dreams. The second half of the video will look at the nuts and bolts of dream interpretation.

In this video, the hidden dynamics often at play within the complex relationship people have with money are explored.  Case studies and reflective exercises help you to gain insights to understand the unconscious meanings, emotions and beliefs that influence our attitude to money and drive behaviour.

This training gives a deeper understanding of different money perspectives and patterns within your work with clients, while also encouraging an awareness of your own narrative and beliefs around money and how they may influence your therapeutic practice or conflict with your pricing strategies.

The video includes tools and strategies to improve your therapeutic work in supporting clients navigating money issues and explores ways to help transform your own relationship with money.

Testimonials:

“Excellent training workshop on a theme rarely covered in such helpful detail; together with practical ways to approach the topic with clients.”

“A really interesting event on a subject that is rarely discussed in terms of therapy.  I found the exercises particularly helpful and surprising in what they brought up.  Very good indeed.”

“The event was more emotionally powerful than I was expecting. As a result, I think I will be more comfortable with exploring clients’ own relationship with money, when necessary.”

Women’s social history is considered, before moving on to look at the mother-daughter relationship through the lens of attachment theory as well as the impact on a daughter’s development when she has been raised with an avoidant mother, a preoccupied mother, a secure mother, a traumatised mother.

Most of the video considers a more attachment based psychodynamic and psychoanalytic clinical focus in exploring the impact of the maternal on a daughter and the issues around the identification that each has to one another.  Potential projections, hopes, desires, fears, and the separation-individuation process are looked as well as a consideration of how we might work with these dynamics in the consulting room.

This training is suitable for experienced therapists as well as those new to the profession and those in-training. Please be aware that an in-depth examination of the four main attachment styles will not be offered as part of this workshop, but you may want to familiarise yourself by reading our blogpost, which can be found by clicking here

The impact of the wider social world on siblings is explored, and  issues such as race, sexuality, disability, and social class are looked at. This video also look at how experiences within the family have an impact on sibling relationships. This might be the impact of loss and/or bereavement within the family, adoption, birth order, blended families, and extended families.
