SUMMARY:OCO Webinar: Intimacy & Connection in the Caregiver-Partner Relationship
DESCRIPTION:Caregiving changes so much in how we experience life and our familial relationships. In this webinar\, we will explore the shifts that occur in the dynamics of intimate partner relationships. Often the general caregiving challenges overshadow the deeper relationship needs between the caregiver and care recipient. In observance of Mental Health Week this May\, join Michal Goldstein\, a registered social worker\, and explore how caregivers can manage some of the challenges that arise within this shifting dynamic\, including: \n\nFeelings of isolation and guilt\nChanges in intimacy\nFeelings of disinterest in the relationship\nTools to regain connection and intimacy\n\nOur Speaker: \nMichal Goldstein is a clinical social worker and therapist with 15 years of experience in supporting individuals\, couples\, and families to build stronger and healthier relationships. She is also the owner and founder of Creating Connections Counselling Services\, a virtual therapy practice based in Toronto that helps individuals and families to reconnect and thrive. Michal holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology\, Bachelor of Social Work (BSW)\, and Master of Social Work (MSW) degrees. She is a registered social worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) and the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW). \nAll attendees who complete the post-webinar survey can enter a draw to win an Ontario Caregiver Organization prize.

SUMMARY:Writing the Heart 6-Week Workshop Series - Winter 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Ted Rogers Centre for Heart Research invites any Canadian living with heart failure or heart disease\, as well as heart transplant recipients\, to join our virtual expressive writing workshops. \nBeing diagnosed with heart failure or disease can make you feel as if your world has turned upside down. Powerful emotions come with the diagnosis: fear\, anger\, sadness\, loss—often difficult to express. Writing has been shown to have emotional and physiological benefits to those dealing with life-threatening or chronic conditions\, hardship\, or trauma. \nFacilitated by Sharon Bray\, Ed.D.\, author\, educator and heart failure patient\, the Ted Rogers Centre for Heart Research is hosting a series of virtual workshops where you can learn why\, and how\, writing can be healing\, whether you write alone or with others. \n“As patients\, I think we learn a lot from each other\,” Sharon says. “The workshops build an extraordinary community through story. People realize they’re not alone.” \nWriting the Heart: 6-Week Workshop Series (Virtual)\nEach 90-minute session of this six-part series facilitated by Sharon Bray Ed.D. will be conducted in an atmosphere of safety and support with the same participants each week. Sharon will guide the group with specific writing prompts\, with time allocated for writing and reflection\, as well as sharing of your writing.  \nGroup participants will be encouraged to practice deep active listening and offer supportive feedback on the writing shared. This Expressive Writing series is led by an experienced facilitator and allows participants to write in a supportive environment of a community of people with lived experience of heart disease.  \nNote: Limited to 15 participants and we ask that you commit to attending all sessions.\n\nSix-week series on Thursdays from February 16 to March 23\, 2023 from 1-2:30pm EST \nRegister Now!\nFor more information\, please contact samantha.engbers@uhn.ca.
