Michelle and Kurt have been training practitioners within academic and private practice settings for over twenty years. Since the early '90s they have been engaged in Narrative and post-structural practices and are committed to continuing a skills-based “training” conversation in these ways of working. Toward this end they offer the following training opportunities.
Individual Supervision
Michelle is an AAMFT Approved Supervisor. She offers supervision-of-supervision with professionals who themselves are working toward becoming AAMFT Approved Supervisors.
She also provides supervision for mental health professionals working toward licensure in marriage and family therapy. Michelle’s supervision is clearly oriented toward post-structuralist therapies.
Introduction to Narrative Therapy
As adjunct faculty at Seattle Pacific University, Michelle and Kurt offer an introductory course in Narrative Therapy.
Typically this is a summer course taught intensively on Fridays
Advanced Level Narrative Therapy Training (15 CEUs available)
This group is for professionals who have a basic or advanced understanding of narrative ideas and want to strengthen their ability to practice therapy from a narrative/post-structuralist framework. The focus of our meetings is on deepening our understanding of narrative work through the discussion of Michael White's "Maps of Narrative Practice" book, and the use of reflecting teams and other outsider witness practices. Members may also discuss their own clinical work and show their work “live” or through video/audio recordings.
