Description

Professor Mick Cooper describes how individual therapy can create meaning and a feeling of being sustained. He postulates that it’s at the time of connection between the therapist and the client when the real work of therapy is happening. Through this training, you will gain skills to deepen the relationship with your clients. By the end of the training, participants will be able to identify the four components of relational depth and apply them to their work. You will also hear client examples of the experience of relational depth.
