Hi all! Thanks to those of you who attended the MHPO/FlowState Therapy Christmas Party at Ben Shimshoon's gorgeous FlowState Clinic! It was a beautiful experience. The conversations were rich and non-stop- reuniting with colleagues, and making new acquaintances. Catering by Nicole from PinkAvocado was exceptional and beautifully presented.

Master facilitator Monica Forst's all day in person workshop: Introduction to Schemas, Ego States and psychodrama was a huge success! It was so refreshing and enriching to connect and learn together! Monica has a way of making complex concepts accessible, and they were brought to life through experiential role plays and personal reflection. We left with practical tools for immediate clinical use. Below is a photo of Monica and some of the attendees, including Francis Ouimet, Patrice Yazdanyar, , from Men & Healing, Brooks, MHPO's Past President McCallum, and Vice-President Natalie Bell

Brooks' presentation on visible and invisible disabilities was profound! She's on a mission to help improve the quality of life for those with visible and invisible disabilities, with a special emphasis on adhd and autism.

Deborah has a powerful, conversational style through which she vulnerably wove her lived experience with disability throughout, in such a way that we could really feel the vast daily barriers that interfere with quality of life.

She shared research, resources and leaders in the field of disability advocacy, as well as immediate concrete solutions that we as practitioners can put in place to reduce some of those barriers. If you couldn’t attend, I highly recommend watching the recording of her workshop when it becomes available!
