Calling all health professionals.....interested to try Balint work but never had the chance?

The UK Balint Society is holding a

BALINT GROUP TASTER DAY

ON: SATURDAY 19TH NOVEMBER 2011 FROM: 10am to 4pm AT: HAMPDEN HOUSE PSYCHOTHERAPY CENTRE 2 PALATINE ROAD WITHINGTON MANCHESTER M20 3JA

After a brief introduction you will participate in two 90 minute Balint groups facilitated by experienced leaders, and a short plenary. Is this suitable for me? If you work directly with patients or clients and sometimes feel puzzled or curious about your interactions, then Balint work offers a chance to explore the emotional side of such relationships in a group setting using cases from everyday work. See www.balint.co.uk for more details about Balint work and the Balint Society. Cost for the day, including tea, coffee and lunch, 80.00 Please apply using the attached form Places are limited to 16 attendees and will be allocated on a first come first served basis, with a reserve list. Anyone not allocated a place will have their cheque returned promptly.
