პრაქტიკის გაძლიერება: პრაქტიკოსების განვითარების მხარდაჭერა თბილისში
Georgia
ახლახან დასრულდა ჩვენი ონლაინ ზედამხედველობის ბოლო რაუნდი ადგილობრივ პარტნიორებთან ერთად თბილისში. რამდენიმე თვის განმავლობაში ჯენი ლაასი წყვილებში შეხვდა ოთხ პრაქტიკოსს, რათა კლინიკური მუშაობის გაანალიზების, იდეების გაზიარებისა და მუსიკალური მიდგომების შესწავლის საშუალება მიეცა მათთვის. ამ ბლოგში ჯენი გვიზიარებს საკუთარ მოსაზრებებს პროცესზე, თანატოლებთან სწავლების ღირებულებასა და მონაწილეებისგან მოსმენილ უკუკავშირზე.
