CHTP member offers 3-day seminar

The 4th INPM Summer Institute focuses on Exploring the Healing Potentials of Meaning and Mindfulness, featuring Dr. Paul T. P. Wong's Meaning-Centered Approach (MCA) to Counseling, Coaching and Narrative Therapy, and Nancy Fischer's Mindfulness Training for Children.

The MCA is a holistic, integral and evidence-based approach, with a focus on the positive psychology of meaning and spirituality. It combines the insights of logotherapy, humanistic-existential-transpersonal psychology with cognitive behavioral therapy and narrative therapy.

It invites people to a personal journey of healing and transformation and provides the signposts to a purposeful, fulfilling and vibrant life. You will learn the tools and skills to restore meaning and hope for those in the depth of brokenness. You will also learn how to apply meaning-management to a wide variety of issues, from vocational choice, addiction, to grief counseling. Intended audiences include counsellors, psychologists, social workers, mental health professionals, nurses, doctors, clergy, occupation therapists, and graduate students.

This event is organized by the International Network on Personal Meaning and co-sponsored by the Graduate Program in Counselling Psychology, Trinity Western University.

Date: July 22-24, 2005
Place: Coast Plaza Hotel, Vancouver
