Course description
The Power of Transference in the Therapeutic Relationship with Daliah Slater and Sarabeth Morrison
Transference is ubiquitous. Yet whilst it is often elusive and complex in its nature, working with this unconscious process is an integral part of the therapeutic process.
This workshop will enable you to gain a better theoretical understanding of the complexities and powerful phenomenon of transference and its different types.
- What is transference? Do you struggle with the potentially confusing concept of transference?
- Have you ever experienced strong or inexplicable feelings when working with a client?
- Have you ever felt stuck, uncomfortable or overwhelmed?
- Have you ever found yourself getting confused or ‘into something’ with your client? It may be that you are caught in the powerful phenomenon of transference.
- Do you want to be better able to identify and make sense of the complexities of this?
- Do you want to feel more confident in how to work with the transference, so it becomes a tool for your practice.
