Speaking at the conference, the convener, Dr Kingsley Okonkwo, said most family life practitioners don’t have support in this part of the world.
“I am a family life practitioner with over 25 years of experience. I have found out over the years that most family
life practitioners, coaches and counsellors don’t have enough support, especially in this part of the world. That is why we are having our first-ever International Family Life Practitioners’ Conference here in Nigeria.

“If you are a family life therapist, you are a counsellor and a coach, this is our own industry event; you don’t want to miss it. I am having some great coaches coming all the way to be a blessing to us. This event covers every aspect of our practice,” he said.
The 2-day conference, which holds in Lagos on October 20 and 21, will feature different sessions covering areas such as premarital counselling, infidelity recovery, dealing with addictions, the business of coaching. The aim is to equip practitioners for an excellent family life practice.
