Sunday 22nd November 2020 – The Art of Relationship, Connection and Co-Creation
with Dr Carla van Laar.
10am – 4pm FACE to FACE Professional Development Workshop
Siteworks, Brunswick.
$125 per person – pandemic discount
Relationship is the core of all problems and all healing. Through our art based relating and connecting we co-create.
Understanding how we do this is core to strengthening our practice and our capacities as art therapists.
The intertwining of relationship, connection and co-creation expands beyond constructions that privilege the therapeutic relationship between therapist and client in psychotherapy.
From this perspective, a variety of relationships between people, materials, art works, contexts, values, discourses and stories are seen as important, interconnected and in constant states of co-creation and becoming.
Deepen your understandings of the therapeutic nature of relating, connecting and co-creating through art.

Starts 9th November
ArtKey: Use art to unlock more effective trauma narratives with Lisa Mitchell, MFT, ATR and Kendra McGivney. Online.
We all know that trauma is a multi-sensory experience, so why do we continue to rely on words alone to help our clients recover? In this course you will learn to enhance trauma treatment and memory reconsolidation with creative expression and sensory based processing. If you are a therapist who is required to use a trauma treatment model that emphasizes cognition as the healing modality, we will take you beyond the workbook pages of manualized treatments. If you are a therapist who wants to learn to bring art and creative expression to your trauma work with clients in a safe and effective way, we will show you how. This course is full of colorful examples and client vignettes, hands-on learning opportunities, and real time discussion.
