About this Event
Audience
Mental health practitioners, welfare workers, youth workers, and lived experience workforces who facilitate or plan to facilitate groups for young people.
Overview
This evidence-based, experiential workshop (e.g., role plays) equips participants with practical skills and frameworks to design, deliver, and evaluate therapeutic and psychosocial groups. Through discussion, reflection, and real-world scenarios, participants will learn to create purposeful group spaces, manage dynamics, and address common challenges.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the workshop you will be able to:
- Apply evidence-based frameworks to plan and facilitate purposeful group interventions
- Understand group dynamics and foster safety
- Strengthen reflective practice and confidence as a facilitator by integrating experiential learning and self awareness
NB: This workshop is designed to be interactive and experiential and will include activities such as role-plays and group discussions. In online workshops, we expect participants to have their camera on throughout, particularly when engaging in these activities. If you have any concerns about any of these expectations please contact us.
