Module Content

Outline Syllabus:As with person-centred experiential counselling itself, there is no set content for the group. The facilitator establishes an appropriate balance of support and challenge in order for you to be able to: • Explore aspects of your own history and personality. • Identify introjected conditions of worth. • Separate your own material from that of others. • Identify your own and others’ power in the group. • Provide sensitively phrased feedback to peers. • Understand your intersectional identity. • Develop self-awareness and insight which promotes and encourages you to take personal responsibility for your own process and actions.
Module Overview:
This module will help you to critically examine own conditions of worth and organismic valuing process and consider how this affects relationships with others and the potential impact upon the counselling relationship. It focuses on self-awareness and conditions of worth as well as how to be in relationship with others and understand how this links to client work.
Additional Information:This module focuses on self-awareness, conditions of worth, the organismic valuing process, as well as how to be in relationship with others, and promotes understanding of how this links to client work. You will be actively encouraged to keep a personal journal to assist with recording and processing your individual learning from the personal development group.
