It was both entertaining and thought provoking.I work in a school and have used the methods that I picked up immediately. I always knew humour was often key in therapy, but felt more confident after trying it out myself. ” DB, teacher “Thank you both so much for the workshop session last weekend, it was brilliant! I really enjoyed the mix of theory, stories, demos and exercises – it very much showed the huge amount of skill you both have in working with people.” RG, Consultant Cancellation Policy: We cannot offer any refunds for cancellations.
