Event Description

This webinar has been approved by the University of Detroit Mercy, an institution regionally accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, which is our partner in the offerings of Continuing Education activities.

Sitting Together is a workshop for psychologists, social workers, and other mental health practitioners who are curious about the benefits of compassion, both for their clients and for themselves. We will explore the neuroscience of compassion as well as how to integrate compassion and self-compassion practices into the therapy room. Clinicians will learn specific techniques that they will be able to use immediately both in session and in their own lives to support their own well-being.

Non-members pay $60 per person and Members pay $40 per person. Membership costs only $75 yearly.
