Brimhall, PhD, Assistant Director of Training and Group Services at Colorado State University\u2019s Health Network, where he oversees the training of doctoral psychology interns in Interpersonal Process Group Therapy. Together, they explore what it means to stay with the process when difference, tension, or rupture enters the group room. Drawing from Andrew\u2019s Yalom-inspired and social justice-informed approach, they talk about working with differences in identity, power, neurodivergence, lived experience, and political beliefs\u2014and the responsibility facilitators hold when harm or rupture occurs. They also explore how easily groups can get pulled into the content of a conversation, and what becomes possible when we help members move underneath the content toward the feelings, fears, needs, and relational patterns unfolding in the here and now. You\u2019ll hear:   How to stay with the process when the content becomes compelling   Ways of working with difference, identity, and power in groups   What facilitators can attend to when harm or rupture occurs   How to move beneath content toward the relational process unfolding in the room   The role of curiosity and immediacy when things get complicated   How a social justice-informed lens can deepen interpersonal process work   Carrie and Andrew will also be teaching together this November in Fort Collins in Here and Now: An Experiential Training in Group Dynamics and Interpersonal Process, a two-day experience for therapists who want to deepen their understanding of process groups through both learning and direct experience.
