Unconditional
Positive Regard Begins With You! - Self Care
After 30-some years in the field of crisis intervention and
I&R being both supervised and supervising the presenter realized he was
probably the reason for self care existed. It was this introspection that
lead to this workshop. While those of us in the I&R field may not know
it, the listening skills and the concepts of being nonjudgmental, respectful
and empowering central to the I&R Process have their foundation in the
Person Centered Therapy of Carl Rogers and his premise of Unconditional
Positive Regard (UPR). While we are adept at providing UPR to our clients
we seldom think of ourselves as deserving UPR. This workshop looks at how
we deserve UPR and how we can begin to "work" on ourselves as much as
we work at helping others. For those of you who have been through countless
self care workshops not to worry - there will be no visualizations, deep
breathing, meditation or yoga involved.
