WORKSHOP
3: WORKING WITH SENSITIVE ISSUES AND VULNERABLE GROUPS
Birmingham,
January 12th, 2009
This
course will be an opportunity to develop the counselling
skills we already have, understand some theory, try
out different approaches and develop the confidence
to go a little bit further in conversations with young
people without feeling overwhelmed. We will think together
about some of the unspoken communication between people,
the things not said, the feelings buried or disguised.
Although there will be some theoretical input, the emphasis
of the day will be practical and experiential. We will
share ideas, experiences and learn together.
The
facilitator is Nick Luxmoore. Nick
has worked as a teacher, youth worker and counsellor
with young people for 30 years both in community and
school settings. For three years he worked as a psychotherapist
with young asylum seekers in Oxford. He is the author
of 'Listening to young people in school, youth work
and counselling' (Jessica Kingsley 2000), 'Working with
anger and young people' (Jessica Kingsley 2006) and
'Feeling like crap: young people and the meaning of
self-esteem' (Jessica Kingsley 2008). |
