Masterclasses (Two days)
Systemic Thinking & Working as the Foundation of Mental Health Care
Intergenerational Anger, Secrets, and Lies
A hopeful shift is taking place in mental health care, where systemic thinking and working are increasingly being accepted. This movement is developing in a global society where polarization, hardening, and intolerance are on the rise. These forms of aggression are passed down from generation to generation in families and societies.
How can we deal with ‘what must not be said’?
On Day 1 of the masterclasses, Maurizio Andolfi will conduct a live consultation with a family. He will also engage in a conversation with a special guest.
On Day 2, the focus will be on working on your own ‘professional handicap,’ a concept developed by Maurizio Andolfi. Additionally, the film Being Yourself will be shown. The emphasis will be on creativity and authenticity.
We hope to contribute to tolerance and authentic connections in families and society.
