What’s money got to do with it?

Organised by:

Severnside Institute for Psychotherapy

Description

This workshop is for therapists, counsellors and trainees, working in any setting.

Without money there is no therapy. It is how we earn our living and what we live on. It has profound emotional, symbolic and pragmatic power, for us and the people we work with. Yet as a topic it is rarely theorised or discussed, and it can be easier to talk about sex with our patients than money.

In this workshop we will use our own experience, as well as ideas and theories from psychoanalysis, politics, and sociology to explore what money means in our clinical work. We will think about the inhibitions, fears and assumptions that arise around money and their effect on the therapy – for both participants.

The workshop will be participatory, so bring any cases and questions around money that you want to explore.

I hope that after this workshop the subject of money will cease being something avoided and will become a rich topic for exploration in your work.
