Description
Description: What does it mean to practice psychotherapy in a changing world of managed care, economic pressure, and shifting cultural values? In this candid conversation hour, an existential clinician reflects on presence, spirituality, responsibility, and the discipline of staying with what “matters” in the here and now. Through dialogue with the audience, he explores concern as a living guide in therapy, the role of meditation and self-reflection, and how therapists might respond ethically and personally to broader social upheaval.
Educational Objectives:
- To learn philosophies of various practitioners and theorists.
