Description

Description:

The human reflex to summarize and animate experiences is a springboard for the formation of selves. Through lecture and live therapy demonstrations, Dr. Polster will show how to identify the population of selves within and how to restore linkage among them, creating a dependable sense of personal identity.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To describe the differences between person and self.
  2. From observations of the therapy demonstrations, give two examples of selves being identified.
