Fall Trainings for Therapists
M. Dorsey Cartwright, LPC, LMFT, CCMHC & Neil Meili
This training is based on the Psychology of the Selves and the Aware Ego, as developed by Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone* and the Voice Dialogue Method - their unique technique for actually experiencing these selves. This is so important because these selves carry the attitudes and patterns that control much of our lives. Each self has its own energy, feelings, thoughts and needs. These selves are in constant interaction with one another and the selves in other people. They are often the source of both our internal and external power struggles!
You will learn:
v The normal development of the selves, including how your dominant selves developed
v How the selves function in daily life and why you made the life choices that you have
v The archetypal pattern of how these selves interact with each other in relationships.
You will experience:
v A new understanding and appreciation of your own selves
v The magic of speaking directly to the selves in others.
v The simplicity in developing rapport with yours and others “resistances”
v Working with the Aware Ego: a unique, energetic way to balance your inner push-pulls
These trainings offer an opportunity to explore directly the nature of these interactions within yourself and within your relationships. Experiencing from the inside out will enhance your ability you to use this knowledge and method with your clients.
