Coaching".

• Ethics Playshop
Ann-Marie's Ethics Playshop delves deep into each participant's ethical values in working
with clients. Group discussion of case studies will lead the playshop into meditation and
tissue paper collaging as was developed by Ann-Marie's mentor, Jungian analyst Edith
Wallace, MD. Interactive discussion of what emerges from each collage through the ethical
lens will be the juice of the playshop!
A recent Ethics Playshop was held at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico and was proudly sponsored
by the New Mexico Association for Spiritual, Ethics and Religious Values in Counseling and
the New Mexico Counseling Association. To download a program brochure from that
