Continuing the exploration of person-centred theory, this event will consider what can be called ‘the-space-between’ client and therapist.
Workshop Details
There is a tendency to rely on the Freudian concept of ‘transference’ to describe some of the non-conscious communication that goes on between us as human- beings.
Is this relevant for person-centred therapists?
Are there different ways of conceptualising the-space-between us?
Spoiler alert: there is, and this workshop will consider some possible alternatives.
