Training Workshops

We operate with fluidity within a well-structured agenda, creating both safety and space to move, to experiment and discover new ways of being. Working creatively enables the comprehension of difficult issues such as transference and counter-transference, the understanding of projection and introjection. If you are interested in offering workshops to staff or students but would prefer this service in house please contact us to find out more.
