In many studies of the effectiveness of therapy, a strong connection between therapist and client has been noted as the clearest predictor of success. And yet our own fear and shame of doing the wrong thing can get in the way of that connection. We can be overly susceptible to messages telling us to be "neutral” and “professional.” We can find ourselves holding back our warmth, generosity, and enthusiasm.


In this workshop, you will discover powerful tools to connect with a client quickly and deeply. We will provide demonstrations to help you decide when to hold back and when to bring yourself forward, both emotionally and physically. Because shame can produce a state of freeze, we may need to be even more active in order to counter it. You will learn ways to convey to the client “I’m right there with you”—in a dance in which you alternate between follower and leader. Being “right there” with the client is especially important in working with shame, which turns people’s gaze inward and makes them feel lacking and inferior. The workshop will examine ways to level the playing field that shame distorts—and combine the seemingly contradictory roles of caring friend and trusted expert.


There is no prerequisite for this course. It can be taken by itself or as part of a sequence.
