Working in an ongoing therapy group provides us with the opportunity to learn about how we relate to ourselves and others. Witnessing others work in a trusting environment can permit us to share more of ourselves and get feedback on how others see and respond to us. We can develop new ways of communicating and connecting with others.

Talking About Death and Dying
A workshop to explore your thoughts, fears and experiences of death and dying
It’s not always easy to know how to talk about death. Most of us avoid it. Awkwardness, fear and sadness means we tend to shy away from asking ourselves important questions. How do we feel about dying? What are our fears and fantasies about death? How do we want to die? What happens after we die? What is it like to be with someone who is dying? What do you say? If you have been with someone who has died, how do you deal with the memory? How do you experience grief and loss? Talking and listening, sharing our fears, about how we imagine death will be, about what we have seen and experienced, can be empowering, enlightening and reassuring.
Our approach is non denominational and is not based on any spiritual, philosophical or religious belief system. The workshop is open to everyone.
Sophie Boss and Ben Gold are experienced group leaders who hold a confidential, therapeutic space and guide the conversations and exercises with skill, kindness and respect. They have been running groups for almost twenty years.
Date: 21st September 2019
Cost: £125
Location & Venue: Central London
