The legacy of boarding school
This workshop is aimed at both trainee and qualified counsellors who want to understand the impact on clients of attending boarding school. It is presented from personal and familial experience and, whilst not necessarily a universal experience of boarding, hopes to develop an awareness of the feelings and behaviours which can be the legacy of boarding.
Whilst some individuals experience boarding as a refuge from a damaging home environment, many do not, and for some, both environments are damaging. The insights gained from this workshop can provide extra information when supporting people who have previously attended boarding schools and help build awareness of some of the ongoing challenges they may face.
The workshop will cover:
- A personal experience of boarding.
- The impact and legacy of boarding.
- Therapeutic perspectives - from both client's and therapist's viewpoints.
- What might be helpful when working with ex-boarders.
Cost:
- Early bird - standard £95/trainee therapist £75 (until 21 March 2025)
- 21st March thereafter - standard £105/trainee therapist £95
