MY ONLINE GROUPS ARE FOR THERAPISTS AND HEALTH & SOCIAL CARE PROFESSIONALS TUESDAYS 07.30 - 09.00 GMT WEDNESDAYS 18.00 - 19.30 GMT THE GROUP THERAPY I OFFER IS GROUP ANALYTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY Why group? ?"In an individualizing, fast-moving, competitive world, group analysis challenges us to slow down, to sit and feel and think in the company of others. It often makes us confront questions of power, envy and inequality, as the group grapples with the injuries of living in an unjust world. It offers us the opportunity to explore what it means to belong, and to not-belong, and to develop new ways of being and relating. It can be a deeply moving and transformative experience, both for those who have previous experience of psychotherapy and counselling and those who are coming to therapy for the first time." (Prof. Sasha Roseneil) Why just for therapists and health & social care professionals? I am increasingly aware of the need for self compassion and the impact of moral injury. I also believe we are often constrained by our own shame and self-criticism and by the projections we elicit in others. Also, we know we “can use work - to stop feeling lonely, to feel clever, kind, creative, special and loved and cared for.” (Libby Nugent, @becomingethical) The group provides the container and the medium in which we can find both challenge and support, become more aware of the unconscious and allow ourselves to shift between, and explore new ways, of being in the world. https://www.grahammackaypsychotherapy.com/
