Relationship Counselling: Dating and relating in a modern world.

What is covered on the course Single and Ready to Mingle: Project, Idealise and Demonise?

This weekend will look at the search for the magical other and our quest for the mythical mate to heal (or reinforce) our past traumas.

We will explore how we and our clients can take greater responsibility in personal relationships, how we accept a summons to individual growth rather than seeking rescuing from others, and is a potential partner's role to collude and soothe us - or challenge and disturb us?

We will also explore how our intersectionality impacts this (including what dating/projecting looks like in a tech-driven world). We will ask what is the clients' and our own philosophy on the point of relationships and how this impacts our quest for relating.

We will look at different personality adaptations and character styles and the different life stages we go through with or without the other.

Certificated course includes 14 hours of CPD
