Health professionals are exhausted and depleted at present. This new introductory ten-week course aims to build morale and cohesion while introducing new, immediately useful trauma-informed psychotherapy skills and experience with peer supervision around therapeutic presence and skills, establishing and exploring the Self of the therapist within an emerging community of Care, Learning and Practice.
