What will the group explore?
A range of different topics will be explored over the life of the group such as but not limited to, professional identity, strengthening theoretical frameworks, exploring work opportunities, sharing resources and including the possibility of reviewing clinical literature and therapeutic developments. Themes may also be co-constructed with participants to ensure explorations remain relevant and useful and best meet the collective professional development needs. The group will be a mixture of discussion, movement explorations and creative tasks with participants working individually and collectively.
Why is the group for DMPs not yet in private practice?
The aim of making the group specifically for DMPs not yet in private practice is to create the possibility for a more equal footing. The hope is that participants will feel more able to share their experiences and voice their needs if they feel others present are of a similar knowledge or skill level. The intention is to create a safe reflective space where therapists can freely develop themselves and their practice and to build a supportive collegial network.
If I already have, or have had, a professional relationship with you can I still attend the group?
