Engaging with the adolescent

Engaging in conversation with the adolescent: clinical style with emerging BPD

PLEASE NOTE: THIS WORKSHOP IS FULLY BOOKED.

We have had a lot of interest in this workshop. We have already filled a second workshop in July. We are currently considering whether we will be able to offer a third workshop later in the year but this is not yet confirmed. We hope to run a workshop to include those people who have already contacted us. If you would like your name to be considered for any future workshops we might run on 'Engaging in conversation with the adolescent', please fax your registration form as per usual. We will contact you when we know more information.
