Group Facilitator
Thrive Professional Society is looking for an individual skilled in helping skills to facilitate group sessions. We currently run a support group focused on supporting people newcomers to Canada and other professionals looking for social support. We are looking to expand our offerings to include a Hope and Action Theory group which will run for 6 weeks. Although our supervisor is one of the creators of Hope and Action Theory, they are licensed in the United States. As such, this would not count toward practicum hours for UBC. However, it is a great opportunity to learn Hope and Action Theory and improve group facilitation skills. Responsibilities include: • Facilitating two, 2-hour group sessions a month in Downtown Vancouver or online • Meeting with our supervisor to go over group plans • Being supportive of group members This is a great opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of Hope and Action Theory along with group facilitation skills. Thrive Professional Society conducts research on the mental and physical health of newcomers and others undergoing life transitions, online group therapy techniques and career development. It also offers free supervised coaching, educational groups centered around Hope and Action Theory as well as ongoing support groups for newcomers and those needing support.
