CPD Sessions
About
Imroc has developed a number of bespoke recovery-focused and peer informed CPD sessions to meet the needs of people working within recovery and peer roles and settings. These have been delivered in-house and to other organisations and can be adapted to suit your training requirements.
If you have a specific training request please contact peertraining@imroc.org
Some examples of our CPD Sessions are below.
UNEARTH: the things that divide us
This session will explore stigma from a few different angles, exploring the ways in which stigma can manifest and how we can challenge it. Instead of taking an academic approach, which often allows us to detach ourselves from being perpetrators or carriers of stigma, this session will take a creative approach, utilising analogy and storytelling.
Home In The Mind
Most people associate home with safety. One of the challenges in mental health is creating a sense of safety in our minds. This session will help us think about how we can make our mind a safe place to be. We are going to look at the power of containment and develop ideas for creating a "home in the mind."
UNEARTH: whose language are you speaking?
This session will first take a broad look at how language has evolved and how that evolution is based on radical changes brought about through history. Then, we will explore the ways in which this evolution has impacted the language of mental health and how we can restore the power and agency back to those who speak it.
We're off to see the Wizard: Facilitating Groups
In this session we will look at groupwork through the lens of the Wizard of Oz. We will discuss individual needs, group needs and group contracting. There will be opportunities to reflect on and share ideas about how we facilitate groups and what we hope to achieve through groupwork. This session may be of interest to anyone currently facilitating groups or thinking of starting groups.
