By Rich Simon As therapists, many of us practice in two different worlds. In the first, we see polite, well-behaved, articulate clients with solid values.

No wonder we genuinely like these people! |
Tag: Friday Workshops Friday Clinical Workshops, Comment BoardWelcome to the 2011 Symposium! Although some have been in the conference mindset since Wednesday, Friday is the first day of clinical workshops. Today began with Sherry Turkle’s intriguing morning keynote about technology and human relationships, and of course, Rich Simon’s unforgettable musical rendition of “Don’t Stop Believin’!” What were your favorite workshop experiences today? What was most striking or interesting or new? We invite your comments here on the Comment Boards, on other Friday blog posts, or, if you’re unfamiliar with social networking, we welcome you to “brave new worlds” and explore our Facebook and Twitter pages! What as the best part of today for you? Comments |
