Description
Understanding how our tone of voice and the other ways we communicate beyond words affects our clients in session is critical to our work as therapists. No matter what theories or techniques we use, it’s how we show up to each session that can sometimes make or break those interventions. Yet very little is written or taught about how we might prepare or use the “instrument” that is ourselves in session. In this new experiential workshop led by a renowned communication coach and a psychotherapist, you’ll explore how to:
- Prepare your body and voice to engage a range of clients in different situations
- Use breathing and vocal exercises to navigate clinical dilemmas in session, adapt one's therapeutic use of self when necessary, and help each client to embody their full range of self
- Maximize your voice and sense of self in front of an audience of peers, students, or the general public
