Transformational Chairwork 

by Scott Kellogg

Drawing on the clinical wisdom and practice of a wide range of Gestalt and integrative psychotherapists, the Transformational Chairwork Workshop is designed to introduce therapists to the art and science of Chairwork or psychotherapeutic dialogues in an active, creative, and clinically-useful manner.

Using didactic presentations, role-plays, and live demonstrations, participants will learn how to use this technique to address several common clinical situations:

1. Making Decisions;

2. Resolving Loss, Grief, and Unfinished Business;

3. Countertransference/Coping with Difficult Relationships.

4. Working with Addictive Disorders;

5. Healing from Abuse and Interpersonal Trauma; and

6. Engaging the Inner Critic/Increasing Self-Compassion
