This workshop will be delivered via Zoom.
Many therapists were forced into working online as a response to the pandemic and lockdown. Now we are moving out of the crisis having discovered that online work is more convenient and expands possibilities.
This is an opportunity to explore the losses and gains of this way of working so that we can adapt our clinical practice in the most beneficial and effective way.
Would you like to explore the impact of working online on transference dynamics?
Would you like to learn ways of compensating for the missing embodied presence and the capacity for reverie?
Do you need ideas on how to facilitate the creative use of boundaries without a shared space in a way that promotes rather than impedes psychic change?
Workshop Aims
By the end of this workshop you will have:
A better understanding of the impact of technology on the psychotherapeutic relationship. The workshop will look at how to think about the use of technology clinically.
A clearer understanding of how important tolerating frustration is for internal development and how technology affects this process.
Have more knowledge about how to bring in the body and somatic states to facilitate depth work.
A summary of how boundaries are affected and how to individually tailor these for the benefit of the therapy.
