Therapeutic action
fosters the authentic engagement of members with themselves, others
and the therapist. Immediacy and vitality reflect the vividness of
here and now experience, with its sense of risk, exposure, discovery
and genuine affect. This workshop will explore the use of the
therapist's intersubjective experience of immediacy and disengagement
to shape the group's process and development.
