Description:
The interpersonal dynamics of group, couple, and/or
family counseling can uniquely facilitate clients’
personal and relational growth. However, if not managed
successfully, the ethical and therapeutic challenges
associated with these modalities could hinder clients’
progress and even contribute to frustration or impasse
for counselors. This program is designed for counselors
at all levels who wish to reflect upon their existing
skills and develop new strategies for working with
multiple clients during the same session.
In this interactive program, Drs. Mobley and Murray
will guide participants through an exploration of
pitfalls and strategies to aid the counselor in effectively
facilitating these counseling formats. An hour will
be devoted to each of the relevant topics: groups,
couples, and families.
