Working with the Arts Series- (8 participants max.)
Training Location: The Link Centre, Headway House, Jackie's Lane, Newick, Sussex, BN8 4QX
This series of workshops is designed for qualified practitioners and senior trainees, interested in furthering their understanding and use of creative arts processes within their client work.
These workshops offer a combination of theoretical delivery and experiential learning within each four-day programme, structured over two weekends. Delivered within an integrative and relational framework, these workshops incorporate aspects of TA, Gestalt and Jungian modalities. The origins and value of the imagination, of play and of creative living, will be referenced, primarily from the work of Donald Winnicott, paediatrician and psychoanalyst.
These workshops can be attended individually, as stand alone CPD, or taken as a progression throughout the year, offering a foundation in employing creativity and the arts in counselling and psychotherapy. For those wanting to attend more than one workshop a discount will be given (see below). A certificate of attendance will be given to those successfully completing each four day module.
1.Myth and story – July 3rd/4th and July 24th/25th
‘Myths are the ‘Masks of God’, through which men everywhere have sought to relate themselves to the wonders of existence’ Joseph Campbell
Myth and story resonate with personal, cultural and collective experience, offering myriad ways
to engage creatively with clients. The archetypal images, symbols and themes embedded in story can serve to expand our ways of being in the world; prose, poetry and dreams are also sources of potentially transformative material, readily available for use within the therapeutic frame
This workshop aims to explore some aspects of personal, collective and archetypal story and to demonstrate how working with story, myth and prose, may support a deepening of process and contact with the self and with others.
2.Theatre and embodiment – Sept 11th/12th and Oct 9th/ 10th
‘It is in playing and only in playing that the individual child or adult is able to be creative and to use the whole personality, and it is only in being creative that the individual discovers the self.’ Donald Winnicott
The ‘play’ of drama and embodiment offers potent means to contact, inhabit and enact aspects of
ourselves and significant others, facilitating increased fluidity in the parts we may choose to play.
Working with dynamic experiments transforms ‘talking about into doing’, offeringa contained and creative space for exploring inner/outerdialogues, sub-personalities and polarities within the self.
This workshop will offer opportunities to engage with dramatic enactment, rehearsal and re-scripting including bodywork and the theatre of sandtray, within the context of therapeutic work.
3.Visual Imagery and verbal metaphor - Nov 13th/14th and Dec 11/12th
‘The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity.’ Carl Jung
This workshop explores the value of image and mark-making, and the potential of ‘found’ imagery.
Image and metaphor offer languages to express what may not be conveyed in words, offering bridges to unconscious and transpersonal material as sources of symbolic and metaphoric insight.
In the therapeutic space, an image can serve to express, embody and contain personal experience and feeling states; the therapists shared image or metaphor, can equally attune to a clients experience, fundamentally communicating the sense of being heard and ‘existing’ in relationship.
This four day workshop offers opportunities to directly engage with visual imagery and metaphor,
through a range of art materials and experiential exercises.
