Re-membering and reclaiming lives from abuse
This online course is a unique opportunity for practitioners. Due to many requests, it includes video footage of Michael White facilitating a re-membering conversation with Chris and Jussey in 2000. This course also includes video footage of Chris and Jussey discussing and reflecting upon this conversation with Michael ten years later. Chris and Jussey also speak about their work with Silent Too Long: a group for women survivors of childhood sexual abuse and how narrative practices can assist women to reclaim their lives from the effects of abuse. A number of key articles are also included. You will be invited to offer your reflections on the videos and articles, to participate in a quiz, and to write a short paper in relation to re-membering practices. Cost: AUD$99
Externalising Conversations
This online course consists of three parts. In Part One, you will watch three short video clips of Michael White talking about and demonstrating externalising conversations in therapy. In Part Two, you can sit back and watch a series of engaging presentations by Michael White about externalising conversations. Having watched these clips, you will then read a number of key articles, before testing your knowledge on the ‘externalising conversations quiz’. In Part Three, you will watch a video clip in relation to externalising paranoia and read a number of influential papers about collective externalising conversations. You’ll then be invited to complete a 1000 word assignment. Cost: AUD$99
