The Healer's Journey is a professional development opportunity which harnesses the personal realities of life and offers a unique perspective on understanding inter-professional and organisational dynamics and relationships.
Having completed my Masters degree in education at La Trobe University with a thesis on the archetype of the wounded-healer, I developed The Healer's Journey to assist those in the caring and helping professions to access the wisdom and guidance contained in the archetype or universal pattern of the wounded-healer.
The Healer's Journey helps you to expand your personal and professional horizons, allowing you to revitalise yourself and your practice, and explore new directions in your career.
The Healer's Journey can help shed light on intra and inter professional dynamics providing fresh perspectives, and a platform for co-operation and renewed relationships.
While the program can be tailored to the needs of specific groups and organisations, a typical workshop might include:Inviting the wounded healer archetype into conscious action in the life of a practitioner or organisation can be a profound and enriching experience.
