Politics arouse intense emotions in all of us particularly in this election year. Is it possible to step back and analyze how we respond to the 2016 election, while putting our personal loyalties aside for a moment?
This event addresses the 2016 election, examining the passions aroused in the social arena and clinically in the office, focusing on idiosyncratic countertransference and treatment issues.
Free, open to the public, accessible to the "T."
For those attending for Continuing Education credit:
