There's nothing like learning by doing! Jump right in to an intervention practice session with your fellow S-CAR students. This lively and interactive workshop will provide tools for conducting a narrative intervention in an interpersonal conflict situation. Leading the session will be Grace Chau, Cecily Cutshall, Kristin Dorage and Matthew Graville.
Our focus will be "Double Listening" --- a basic and essential skill for narrative practice, which pairs well with other techniques of intervention. This skill works with the assumption that in life, we live in multiple stories, rather than just one single story. In the background of each conflict story people tell, there is also an "absent but implicit story" (Michael White) that skilled practitioners can help parties to develop.
