Social Workers and Psychologists are invited to register for this UFT Member Assistance Program professional development workshop. This training will focus on the foundational elements of group psychotherapy. The session will begin with covering the modern analytic technique of therapeutic contracting to engage group members early in the group process, then will explore the stages of group development outlined by Tuckman: forming, storming, group norming, performing and adjourning. This training will also explore using group members’ resistances to the group and the contract to facilitate improved emotional communication and other modern techniques.  Participants will earn two Continuing Education credits for each workshop they complete.
 

The cost to attend is $25.
