This two-part workshop series is designed by Dr. Leslie Greenberg and Dr. Serine Warwar, leaders in the field of psychology and world-renowned experts in emotion and emotion processing. It is aimed at mental health professionals from various training backgrounds who wish to acquire specialized skills in working with emotions in psychotherapy.
