The Quiet Resistance: Working with Passivity and Apathy

About
Working with passive behaviours in therapy can be particularly challenging. These patterns often result in over-adaptation, a lack of relational depth, therapeutic stuckness, and even enactment. This practical workshop will help you recognise these dynamics early, support clients in developing awareness of their patterns, and offer tools for reintroducing movement and agency into the work.We’ll begin by exploring the underlying function of passive or apathetic presentations, and consider how to identify and engage with them in a compassionate, effective way. From there, we’ll look at practical strategies to help shift the dynamic — allowing the therapy to deepen and become more collaborative.
