Deepening Mindfulness: Wisdom and Compassion in Psychotherapy (1.5 Clinical CE) - Higher Thought Institute
Course Description:  What do we look for in a psychotherapist? When we are in pain, the answer probably isn’t academic knowledge or training. Rather, we hope that our therapist will be wise—have a deep understanding of how to live life—and compassionate—able to supportively enter into our suffering with us. This presentation will explore how, using mindfulness practices, wisdom and compassion can be cultivated in both the therapist and the client, leading to richer, more fulfilling treatments.

 

Objectives:

  • Participants will be able to identify the various dimensions of wisdom and compassion and understand how they can be cultivated in therapeutic relationships.
  • Participants will be able to describe ways to help clients cultivate wisdom and compassion in their personal and professional lives.
  • Participants will be able to identify the role of cultivating wisdom and compassion in creating treatment goals.
