The Keshet Course (Promotion, Sharing, Communication) teaches an alternative approach to communication within the family, with the goal of improving communication and the quality of life for the entire family. During the course, you will learn the principles of dynamic cognitive theory and the principles of the mediating approach. The Mediation Approachfocuses on cognitive communication that facilitates change and learning. This learning takes place through the analysis, understanding, and reframing of life events within the family, in relation to educational and rehabilitative services, and the community as a whole.

Daily life and manage them.

  1. Be active, involved, and responsible for providing appropriate support to the family member and the entire family.
  2. Applying mediation to family life events, based on an understanding of the key elements of mediation.

The belief that every person is capable of change—at any age and regardless of their state of health or illness—provided they are given the appropriate conditions to do so, lies at the heart of the dynamic cognitive approach.
