ABSTRACT:

Aims
1) to promote psychosocial development as the ability to be self-aware, regarding the inner world, and respect one’s own emotional experience within a care context.
2) to improve their relational ability and communicative skills, developing deep communication and creative solutions in difficult and extreme situations.
3) to establish a safe relational field in which to think and process the theme of lack, loss and death.

Jung spoke of the archetype of the wounded healer, who holds within himself two opposite poles: the healer and the wounded. More relevant than ever in the care professions.

Developing their own experiences will allow everyone to learn from relationships with patients and families, to learn from experience. Creative ability to perceive and improve the characteristics of families at home will be stimulated, focusing on the positive resources of environmental contexts.

Method:
Communication, Active listening, Narrative Medicine, Socio-Psycho-drama, Art Therapy will be presented both in terms: patient and family care, group team work.

To create a space in which participants can reflect critically on interpersonal relationships within the care relationship with users and families. We can meet the myth of the omnipotence of medicine with the ancient myths of Chiron and the transience of life, and process mourning experiences together.
