Anxiety is almost
always pressent in group psychotherapy sessions and opinions vary as
to how to manage and contain it. Some anxiety is based in reality
and some is based on fantasies of danger. This workshop will
demonstrate a model for working with anxiety. There will be two
experiential sessions, a theory session and opportunity for
consultation.
