This seminar is invaluable to anyone who is tired of feeling stuck in resentment or blame. For professionals in the mental health field, this workshop will provide inspiration, skills and specific techniques to instill profound change in clients by moving them out of blame and victim mentality to empowerment and personal responsibility. All seekers are welcome!

Too often, we as helpers unknowingly impair our clients by focusing on all the ways they have been hurt or betrayed by life circumstances. We need skills to show empathy without enabling people to stay stuck in self-pity thereby encouraging their role as a victim. As therapists, we hear from our clients all the ways their parents, partners, ex-spouses, bosses, children, jobs, siblings, coworkers, friends, the economy, the government -- have hurt or disappointed them. Authentic change requires acceptance that life is difficult and the ability to find the tenacity, hope and wisdom to move forward in spite of, or even because of, the things we have endured. Being consumed with anger and resentment results in depression, anxiety, poor health and strained relationships. Alcohol, drugs and other addictive behaviors are used to cope with resentments and fear. Additionally, many therapists were first drawn to the counseling field to work through their own personal pain, resentments and victimization. Becoming aware of our own unconscious blame is necessary to help free clients of the same. For more information, go to www.RebeccaAadland.com.
