What do you do when you are uncertain and feel you need to do something about that uncertainty? Seek reassurance? Catastrophise? Triple check eveerything? Are you comfortable with uncertainty? Can you tolerate doubt? What price do you pay for trying to know everything about everything?

For many people, intolerance of uncertainty can be a painful and unsettling experience and can serve to maintain anxiety, anger, relationship stress, imposter syndrome and low self esteem. But as therapists what can we do to help clients accept, challenge and live with uncertainty? And as therapists how can we address our own doubts about our competence, our effectiveness and our development? If these questions hit home for you then our workshop this weekend is for you.
