Anger and Passivity
This workshop explores anger and passivity from a humanistic perspective. Anger can bring challenges for counsellors, especially those who rarely feel anger. Passivity can be equally challenging to work with in client sessions.
There will be experiential exercises to explore these polarities, and some guidelines provided for working with angry and passive clients. Some time will be available for participants to reflect on their own habits and reactions to anger and passivity.
Workshop details
- Workshop: Anger and Passivity

- Venue: Friends Meetinghouse, 22 School Lane, Liverpool, L1 3BT
This is a one-day CPD workshop suitable for humanistic counsellors and trainees. Participants from other approaches are also welcome.
My workshops are experiential, which means that I want participants to actually experience the Gestalt therapy approach rather than just being provided with intellectual information. Gestalt therapy is primarily non-verbal and as such I aim for workshops to give participants a real feel for this approach.
Please note: Participants have choice throughout in relation to taking part in exercises and experiments. Handouts and CPD attendance certificates are supplied. Tea, coffee, water and biscuits will be provided. Lunch is not included but there are many eating places nearby. There is disabled access to this venue.
Booking policy: I don’t require a deposit, just a commitment that you will attend. You pay in full on the day by cheque or cash. This avoids the hassle of sending payment through the post. However, if you reserve a place and then cancel within a week before the workshop I would want you to pay a cancellation fee of £20. And if you don’t attend on the day of the workshop the full amount is payable.
