About Carmen Joanne Ablack: I have been leading groups in different settings since the early 1980’s.I bring my warmth, compassion, humour, sensitivity and a certain amount of rigour to group facilitation work, supporting, encouraging and at moments offering growth-full challenge to help you make the best of your personal development group.
 
My experience as an integrative and body psychotherapist, a group facilitator and a workshop leader has shown me there is an important creative tension and possibility for expansion to be explored and integrated in the alchemy of the group. The crucible for reconnection is an on-going experience that happens in the room and in life as we learn to make as truthful contact with each other as we can and through this learn more about ourselves and how we want to continue our journey being in the world. I have a particular interest in the exploration of the transpersonal, spiritual, and the meaningful through attention to body-mind and development of emergent awarenesses. In this way my work is also phenomenological, in and of our own experiencing, in the moment, with each other.  For more details about my background please see www.cjabalck.com
