ReadAbsorbthink! Lecture – Can I follow you ?

June 26, 2021 @ 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM

Rs.450

 

Everything a therapist does or does not say is a disclosure, but not necessarily an inappropriate one. – Thomas G. Gutheil

Self-disclosure is often a minefield in an age where most of us have online lives. Social media seems difficult to navigate for both therapist and patient – sometimes valiantly pretending the other exists only in the consulting room; other times, coming face-to-face in the external world and trying to make sense of what we see or learn about each other. As therapists, we might struggle with what it means to embody “Tabula Rasa”. Is it an imposed limitation? How do we feel about patients catching glimpses of our personal lives? Does it always diminish the transference, or can it enhance both transference and countertransference?

Join us for this month’s ReadAbsorbThink! Lecture as we think about our attempts to mask aspects of who we are, for ourselves, and for those who enter our consulting room.
