Pink Therapy

Our focus is on participants developing their own skills and interests in facilitating groups and using the opportunities provided in group work to support therapeutic growth.

Skills and ideas developed on this course will be applicable within a range of settings such as time-limited groups, support groups and therapeutic workshops.

The programme focuses on planning groups, facilitator styles, co-facilitating, group work exercises and working with diversity.

The workshop offers an opportunity to participate in ‘live’ mini-groups with feedback and to initiate peer support. We plan a follow up group later in the year to develop the work arising from this introductory weekend.

The workshop is suitable for: counsellors and therapists who want to develop group work; facilitators wishing to develop their therapeutic skills to work at deeper levels and experienced group workers wanting to further develop their skills and understanding with minority communities.
