An Online Workshop
12th August 2023 10am-5pm
Open to any ex-boarder male or female or therapist.
If you went to boarding school this workshop will be a space to get a deeper understanding into the psychological impact of boarding school.
And if you are a therapist who works with ex-boarders this will be a chance for you to learn new tools to help in transformation.
Both teachings and practical exercises will be taught on this day with the slides and recording sent through after the workshop..
"As an ex-boarder who was sent away aged eight, I have struggled for many years with feelings of abandonment, alienation, anger, detachment, lack of self-worth, and a nagging sense of victimhood that coloured everything. Piers has given me a marvellous toolkit of methods and mental models that have transformed my life and allowed me to be present in the moment.
I am extraordinarily grateful for the time we have spent working on my journey together and would encourage anyone struggling with similar issues to contact him."
