Motivating Change – Strategies for Approaching Resistance
Vancouver – May 15-16, 2013
Nanaimo – May 22-24, 2013

Often people experience a period in their lives where there are barriers to moving in a positive direction. Helping professionals regularly encounter challenging forms of resistance in their clients, and feel unable to respond in an effective way. This workshop examines resistance and effective strategies for responding to it. The content of this training is geared towards those new to working with resistant clients or professionals who are looking for new ways to facilitate the change process in the people they are working with. Participants will be challenged to reassess their methods of interacting with resistant clients, and bring a new, collaborative, client-centered approach to their work. Drawing from the approaches of Motivational Interviewing, Positive Discipline and Internal Family Systems Model, this experiential workshop will equip helping professionals with an enhanced style and new strategies that will strengthen their therapeutic relationships and maximize potential for motivating change.

Depression – Practical Intervention Strategies
Vancouver – June 18, 2013
Depression is one of the most common mental health concerns and for some it can become overwhelming and at times paralyzing. Caregivers may feel unsure of where to begin when helping those who frequently feel depleted, helpless and ashamed of their struggles. This workshop introduces participants to a variety of effective strategies that can be used to help an individual who is struggling with depression make positive changes. Depression will be reviewed within the current social context and will include analyzing the impact of new social norms on depression. Participants will learn practical strategies to help engage the depressed person on two levels: changing the negative relationship within oneself and changing interpersonal dynamics that perpetuate depression.
