Miniworkshops for group therapists
Here you will find information about mini-workshops on a specific technique/concept that can be offered or requested. A request can include multiple mini-workshops. A single mini-workshop lasts 3 hours and takes place via ZOOM. They all include the explanation of the concept followed by an experiential exercise or training through role-playing. For each concept I refer to the corresponding (sub)chapter in the book.
