Friday Night Conversation
Healing Alongside Our Clients :
How Leaders Show Up Differently As We Evolve
with Janet Griffis, LMFT, LPC
Event Description Janet Griffis, LMFT, LPC will lead our exploration into how our own therapy informs our relationships with our clients and our work. How have we evolved personally since we began as group leaders? What changes have we seen in our groups as a result? How do we continue to provide consistent and ethical care to our clients while we may be in the midst of our own deeply challenging work? How has your concept of the role of therapist changed over time? Attendees can share experiences and questions about how their personal healing informs their groups.
