DESCRIPTION
Our
clients spend up to 80% of their waking hours at work. Yet, most of us
as therapists—having been in private practice throughout our careers—have
little or no experience with the corporate world. This lack of corporate
experience greatly affects the degree to which we can be empathic and
helpful when clients present with work-related issues. This may lead us
to misdiagnose the source of symptoms such as apathy, anxiety, depression,
and physical illness. Consequently, we may mistreat, resulting in an exacerbation
of the clients' problems at work. This course will provide therapists
with the perspective they need to be more effective with their clients'
work-related problems. With plenty of illustrative case material, participants
will learn the unique challenges and strategies needed to help clients
adapt to the corporate world. |
