Therapeutic Errors & Psychotherapeutic Presence Webinar
10th January 2025
Location: Online - Zoom: 2 pm to 6 pm GMT
How is it that we sometimes fail a client even when we are so carefully trying not to? We may even reproduce a real failure in the therapy which is very close to the experience of client’s own childhood trauma. During this webinar Dr Birkebaek will speak about small and subtle mistakes made by the therapist as a result of misattunement, which can lead to ruptures in the therapeutic relationship. As therapists are infallible, therapeutic errors are inevitable, and clients will use these errors to reinforce their self-protective life script system. We will discuss the significance of therapist responsibility taking as a way to disrupt client’s old patterns.
Through lecture, case-vignettes, and clinical discussions, this webinar will focus on the significance of an involved therapeutic relationship while emphasising the in-depth methods of a psychotherapy that integrates client’s affect, cognition, physiology and behaviour. This webinar will be useful to psychotherapists, counsellors and psychologists.
At this webinar participants will:
- Learn how to create a healing therapeutic relationship through the reparation of inevitable therapeutic errors
- Master the four-stage model for therapeutic rupture resolution
- Understand the significance of psychotherapeutic presence to recognise the early signs of rupture
- Be able to use therapeutic errors to establish or deepen the client’s internal and external contact
*This webinar will be in English with Turkish translation
