AEP Video Review Group

Betty Cannon
TBA

 
  • Work in a safe group of professionals to improve your therapy skills by reviewing potions of videotapes with actual or practice clients.

  • Polish your therapy skills by getting moment by moment feedback on interventions as they appear on video.

  • Brainstorm and try out alternative interventions in the group.

  • Learn more about possible interventions by viewing other students' work.

  • Learn to appreciate your strengths as well as to improve your therapy skills.

  • Consider transference and countertransference issues as you review your own and others' tapes.

    It is not necessary to have clients to do this group. You may practice with other students in the group or use practice clients instead.

AEP Video Review Group: For some time now, students at BPI have been asking for a video review group. This is it!

You will bring in videos of portions of sessions with clients and/or fellow classmates for review in the group. You are encouraged to bring in material that you would like to consider for improving your AEP/Gestalt skills. Video review is quite friendly - we'll look at what you do right as wells as work toward fine-tuning your skills.

Moment by moment feedback will give you some great ideas for strengthening your AEP/Gestalt skills. We will role-play alternative interventions and consider countertransference issues live. If appropriate, Betty may share some of her own videos as well.

Sessions can include work with individuals, couples or groups. Permission must be granted in writing for us to look at the videos.

This is an ongoing group with a limit of 12 members. If you wish to sign up for ten sessions in advance, you can get a 10% discount. There is one free miss per calendar year.

Technical Matters: Betty's office will be open most Saturday's to schedule tapings. We also have a small video camera that you can borrow. Reed Lindberg, BPI Managing Director, will instruct the group prior to the start date on camera, sound and making video clips.
