Personality Types and Disorders
Details
Personality type is a key determinant in both how therapist and client bond therapeutically and in the nature of the presenting issue itself. This workshop will explore the dynamics of different personality types and how these individuals differences need to be specially engaged with.
CPD Points: This presentation has been approved for Continuing Education Units (CEUs) with The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland, The Psychological Society of Ireland and The Addiction Counsellors of Ireland.
Outline
The workshop will explore the developmental dynamics that give rise to each personality and the kinds of unconscious / conscious processes to sustain them. The workshop will focus on just what constitutes a personality problem in the first place and what distinguishes this from more normative self-identities.
