Crucible® Consultation Group-Intermediate/Advanced

This case consultation group is appropriate for therapists who have engaged in moderate to significant training in Crucible® Approach and have a serious commitment to becoming advanced Crucible Therapists. One of the primary purposes of this group is to help therapists really understand what is getting in the way of them significantly improving their ability in the approach. It is also designed to help you see, understand and treat cases at a level that most therapists never achieve.

Each member will be responsible for presenting one of their own cases to be reviewed through the Crucible therapy lens. The specific format for case presentations will be provided to the group members upon registration.

Areas of particular focus will include but not be limited to:

  • Crucible therapy concepts- pacing and leading, gaining traction, balanced approach, collaborative alliances, third view in the room

  • Differentiation of the therapist

  • Person of the therapist issues that get in the way of treatment

  • Seeing cases clearly

  • Handling client moves

  • Getting cases unstuck

  • Bringing clients to critical mass

  • Crucible Neurobiological Therapy- interpersonal neurobiological wiring problems, acute and steady state regressions

This group is open to licensed therapists who have attended prior Crucible® Approach trainings. If you have questions regarding eligibility please email us at admin@c-counseling.com
