Course programme

Every group has a distinct character and power and is always more than the sum of its individual parts.

Facilitating groups can be like journeying without a map - often difficult, intense, challenging and stimulating.

Group facilitators can become the receptacle for the group's negativity and projections. The course aims to elicit each member's unique ability, and develop their confidence in facilitating therapeutic groups - by exploring with them their ability to use themselves to harness the strength of the group to empower individual members.

This 7 day (Saturdays) training will cover the characteristics of group work: tasks, facilitator styles, models, interventions, dynamics and processes, boundaries and inherent difficulties. By the end of the course members should have developed:

  • New levels of self awareness in groups
  • An understanding of their unique, personal contribution within groups
  • New skills to facilitate therapeutic groups
  • Ability to identify different roles & dynamics within groups
  • Able to understand stages of group development
  • Skills practice
