Description
Description:
A compelling social ethos beckons psychotherapy to expand beyond pathology into the way people live their everyday lives. This workshop will illuminate psychotherapy’s inherent thrust toward the communal: people joining together to explore universal issues of living; naming themes; developing novel formats, and introducing life-defining exercises. This will include a live communal demonstration.
Educational Objectives:
- Name the three elements of the psychotherapy triad described in this workshop.
- Name three societally active outlets for satisfying the need for life focus.
- Name and describe one major element in the design of the Life Focus Community meeting.
