The Use of the Group in Training Therapists: A Holographic Perspective

Mr Brian O'Neill

Traditional models of training in group work have utilised the group as a resource and in vivo situation for skills demonstration, practice and supervision.  In this presentation we will explore the boundaries of this use of the group to extend to the group as a trainer, supervisor and as the ground of a holistic wisdom above and beyond that of the group members.  Such conceptualisation offers alternative lens for viewing the group that derive from the field perspective of Gestalt therapy.

This lecture was recorded at 'The 2009 Institute of Group Leaders Conference' (Moments of change in group work) in Sydney, Australia.
