Private Group Facilitation
GROUP FACILITATION
Groups (structured or informal, community, social or corporate) are welcome to contact Phoenix to discuss their needs.
What is group work?
Phoenix has been facilitating groups for a long time and is one of her specialities. Based on long practice and feedback from groups, she has developed a safe and effective experiential type of process that allows whatever is needing to emerge to come up safely and be processed or released or integrated. This means that what is focussed on is whatever people bring in to the space.
Phoenix provides the structure and guidance, and it is a group exploration that steers the course of the day. Creating safe space and slowing down helps a group to discover what the ‘process’ is that is waiting to be experienced, so we do this at the beginning.
This process may be what people have imagined they are turning up for or nothing like what anyone imagined, or elements of both. Some groups may want to go deeper and explore any shadow(s) that are de-railing or experienced as destructive or blocking the progress of a group. A shadow is the unconscious or denied or avoided aspects of a group. All groups have these as do individuals.
To work effectively with a group shadow the group needs to be prepared to begin to find out where they, individually and collectively, are part of this shadow and not focus on one individual or ‘problem person’ who may be expressing the shadow for the group.
Phoenix believes and has seen time and time again how these formats can unfold very useful, expansive and clarifying processes that everyone can benefit from.
