FAMILY OF ORIGIN: THE PASSAGE
BEYOND
|
| GOAL: |
| An advanced experiential learning and support counselling group specifically for adults who were children from dysfunctional backgrounds such as neglect, abuse, addictions or mental health problems in parents or other family. |
| WHY??? |
| As children under stress we learned certain behaviours in order to survive. We learned, we practiced, we became. |
| Our objective is a structured and safe process to revisit the family from which you originated; to help you identify the connection between behaviour that no longer works for you today and behaviour you learned in the interactions of your first family or other difficult childhood experiences. |
| This will not give you answers but will help you reach the answers already inside you, to challenge your long held beliefs about yourself and to let go of feelings of shame, resentment and fear. |
| HOW??? |
| Through a wide variety of experiential methods, you will begin to see not only a direction towards change but change itself. |
| THE GROUP: |
| A closed, coed group of approximately 10 persons meeting once a week for 45 weeks. An assessment and 3 individual counselling sessions are included. Additional groups possible when there is sufficient demand. |
| THE FACILITATOR: |
| The group is co-ordinated by Paula Oliver an experienced family addictions counsellor who specializes in family of origin and inner child work. |
| THE COST: * |
| $1700 with a $510 deposit |
| 9 post-dated cheques of $125 each and a final payment
of $65. |
| *This is not a funded service. |
