Foundation Course in Group Analysis 2022
The School of Psychotherapy, St. Vincent’s University Hospital, Elm Park, Dublin 4 is delighted to announce its Finding Groups/ Teams a Challenge???? FOUNDATION COURSE in GROUP ANALYSIS 2022 (Weekend Training Programme).
We all live and work in groups - in our relationships with family, friends and professionally in our relationships at the workplace, yet we are often at a loss as to what might be going on in the dynamics of those groups, especially when difficulties arise as they always do!
This one-year course is open to people who are interested in deepening their understanding of group dynamics in both personal and professional settings and in learning about the potential applications of group analysis in clinical and/or organisational contexts.
Drawing on theories of founding pioneer in Group Analysis, S.H. Foulkes, who was always of the view that individuals can only be understood in the context of their groups, this experiential foundation training develops an in-depth understanding of how group dynamics influence the individual and how the individual’s dynamics influence the group. The training also explores the ‘unconscious’ dynamics in groups.
This well regarded and long running training programme is offered in block format over nine weekends from September 2022 – June 2023
The main elements of the programme are experiential, both in small and large groups and also through theory, work discussion and case study groups.
