The 4-day Intensive workshop builds group cohesion and a safe & generative learning environment for the first and subsequent years of the AAFT-accredited Williamsroad graduate training program.

This workshop is also an opportunity for experienced family workers, and health & community practitioners, and individual counsellors/therapists, to get an overview of the leading-edge ideas and practices in Family & Systemic Therapy. Non-therapists who wish to learn more about working with family and human systems can also apply. The tools of Family & Systemic Therapy are widely applicable and can trigger enduring changes.
