Learn innovative and dynamic approaches and tools for working with young people in their transition from adolescence to adulthood.
This workshop has practical and theoretical sessions.
Course description
An opportunity to learn approaches and tools developed by experienced trainers to meet young people in their life transition crisis.
From an archetypal point of view, young people are bound for their personal heroes journey, from which they all would like to return successfully and transformed.
When such journeys end in disorientation, crime, drug addiction or other kinds of stagnation, this often has to do with the sad fact, that there are no adults available, trained to be modern mentors that can guide them through this journey in a dignified way.
Without the companionship of an adult mentor, the so called “self initiation attempts” of youth can often fail.
In these workshops we hope to bring in tools and techniques that can assist and enhance youth work in an effective manner
This course is for youth workers, mentors and all those interested in supporting youth…
Prices: £285 (non-residential) £390 (residential)
