Description

Description:

This talk proposes to separate psychotherapy approaches into two groups: one called the "psychological therapies," focused on the growth and development of the individual psyche, and the other, the "social therapies," which deal with broader issues of relationship and the social web. My aim is to create a freer field for dialogue between two points of view that are historically independent from each other and that derive from a different conceptual base.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To distinguish between the "psychological" therapies and the "social" therapies.
  2. To describe the cutting edge of the field of social therapy.
