Course content
This is a 2-day training course in which we will cover the fundamentals of systemic family psychotherapy. We will outline the background of systemic practice and how it sits within the wider psychotherapy field. We will explore the key values, principles, and theories which sit within this practice. We will engage with some of the practical tools based within systemic psychotherapy, with the aim of adding to your toolbox.
Systemic family psychotherapy is a hugely practical modality and the aim of these two days will be for us to engage with as many approaches/theories as we can including:
- motivational interviewing
- narrative therapy
- hypothesizing
- social graces
- systemic questioning
- cultural genograms
- first and second-order change
- mentalising and externalising
- safe uncertainty and relational risk-taking
A mostly practical course, we will explore each theory, approach, and topic starting with a brief discussion, then working in groups, pairs, and as a whole to practice each topic.
Learning outcomes
This course aims to equip the participants with a solid understanding of systemic psychotherapy, and its area for application. The delegates will be practised in a wide range of skills and techniques based within the modality of systemic psychotherapy.
The course as a whole aims to both give an overview of systemic psychotherapy, as well as practical tools that can be used safely to support client work.
The course includes lunch and refreshments.
