FIELD THEORY AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY: CONNECTING THEORY AND PRACTICE 

Residential workshop, 3^rd edition

May 24^th – 31^st, 2024

Pieve Tesino (Italy)

The residential workshop is a yearly international group, both theoretical and experiential. It addresses psychopathology from the field theory perspective and it is led by the three directors together. From theoretical stimuli, dialogue and experiential work, we explore the growing edges of our understanding of human suffering and growth, in order to support the development of a Field Based Clinical Practice.

In the morning we work all together stimulated by inputs from the trainers, in the afternoon we work in three subgroups. Each group is led by a trainer and is focused on supervision of therapeutic processes and discussion of clinical cases.

The schedule offers the possibility to slow down and pause, to enjoy personal meetings with colleagues from all over the world, to explore the silence and the nature, to appreciate the beauty of the Italian landscapes and cuisine.

The first and the second edition (May 2022 and 2023) has strongly encouraged us to propose this third edition: the depth of personal involvement, the feeling of belonging to an international community and the incredibly richness of clinical experiences have nourished all of us and foster our growth.

Addressed to: Gestalt Therapist and psychotherapists from other modalities, psychologists and psychiatrists, with clinical experience and basic training in psychopathology.

Language: English.
