RESIDENTIAL 2025 AT DECHEN CHÖLING

From the evening of Thursday March 20 to the afternoon of Sunday March 23

A TIME FOR THE THERAPIST

An original formula for taking care of the therapist.
A place conducive to contemplation and creativity in the heart of nature...

• To address the themes that are important to you as a therapist
• Open yourself up to deep, sensitive listening to your clients
• Trust the wisdom of your resonances by deepening them.
  

Program

During these three days, we will take a field perspective and focus on:

• The therapist’s resonances as a lever for transformation.
• The mobilization of creativity to liberate the therapist’s experience.
• Integrating a clinic of the heart to foster openness and presence in relationship.
• Opening up to new intervention perspectives.

With the help of a variety of artistic and creative media, we’ll play with shapes, colors, volumes, sounds and movement to bring to light what’s trying to emerge from the therapeutic relationship. This playful, innovative approach invites you to dare, to explore, and to deeply renew your engagement with your clients.

In detail

 Supervision time focused on your clinical situations
 Use of various creative media (sound, music, color, drawing, painting, light, earth, shapes, volume, movement, rhythm, gesture, staging, improvisation, play...) to explore your affective, emotional and bodily resonances.
 Extended listening and group participation.
 Opportunity to discover or deepen your preferred themes, values and style as a therapist, and to address your own vulnerabilities.
 For those who wish, we offer morning and evening meditation sessions at our host center.
In a spirit of benevolence, openness, experimentation and freedom.

Learning objectives

• To identify one’s own affectivity within the clinical situation.
• Identify the relational dynamics between patient and therapist.
• Deepen one’s resonances using creative media
• Open up to the therapeutic use of the self in clinical situations
