Training
I have been providing training, presenting at international conferences and professional forums to other mental health professionals for over ten years. Recently I have been asked to provide training for Australian Association of Social Workers members as part of their annual training calendar. My specialist areas include:
- Complex trauma including dissociation, working with flashbacks, nightmares and other symptoms of trauma, therapeutic frameworks and interventions in trauma therapy
- Cross cultural work;
- The development of the therapeutic relationship;
- Assessment;
- Sandplay;
- Dreamwork;
- The Place of Yoga in Trauma Recovery;
Workshops can be run as ½ or full days. Each involves experiential opportunities. Contact Lois for further information and to enquire into training options and costs for your service.
Professional Supervision
Throughout her career Lois has received regular professional supervision. She has trained in the provision of supervision and has provided supervision to social workers, psychologists and other mental health workers for fifteen years. Her approach to supervision draws on the work of Michael Carroll and Margaret Morrell and Paul Gibney PhD. I have developed many tools to aid supervisees in preparation for supervision and to assist in becoming more reflective in their own practice. I have also provided training to other professionals in supervision.
Fee: My fee is $180. Supervision fees can be claimed as a tax deduction for mental health professionals.
