Different Bodies: Deconstructing Normality Workshop with Nick Totton

The workshop will summarise the argument of my book with the same title: that just as the problem with 'race' is whiteness, the problem with marginalisation in general is the concept of normality and its power to shape society. The workshop is addressed to everyone who identifies as 'normal', or who has a part of them that does; its aim is to question that identity, to encourage you to move away from it and identify instead with your unique pattern of difference -- which is what we all have in common.

‘A revolution is underway in how we think about human variation. It has the potential to transform the social and political landscape, sweeping away walls and fences that stop so many people from fully participating. Psychotherapy should be in the vanguard of this revolution, but it isn’t,’ says Nick Totton in his bold analysis of human difference.Learning Objective Participants Can Expect From This Event<ul><li>Learning to question assumptions about normality and difference, and to relate better to these issues as they appear in therapy.</li></ul><ul><li>To challenge and also help the person who self-defines as ‘normal’– be they talking therapist, body therapist, client or anyone else.</li></ul>Who is This Workshop Appropriate For?<ul><li>Psychotherapists, counsellors, and anyone else interested.</li></ul>How May This Workshop Impact Your Practice?<ul><li>It will enable them to consider people's differences and interrogate their own sense of 'normality'</li></ul>
