Delivered by men's work leader and facilitator-trainer Lee Stagles.
For therapists, counsellors, health and social workers and other practitioners working with adult males.
Levels of depression, violence and suicide in men are very high. What are the causes of this? How, as practitioners, can we engage effectively with men and support them?
This is an experiential training. Participants will be introduced to a range of methods and approaches which they may wish to explore further. Simple tools and ideas to engage more effectively with men will also be shared for immediate take-away and practical application.
The training includes personal reflection, group and pair work, poetry & story.
Some of the topics Lee will introduce include:
Working with these issues is not for the faint-hearted. Participation in this workshop requires emotional robustness.
