Shame and Pride

Relational trauma creates shame. Pride is the antidote.
Inspired by Ken Benau’s new book on relational trauma, we will take a deep dive into the diverse presentations of shame and pride. Learn to recognize, respond and repair the shame we meet in others, and in ourselves. This workshop will have the usual combination of didactic material, demos and experiential exercise. Designed for therapists and mental health professionals.
