Confronting Illness and Death: In Our Personal Lives and In the Therapy Room
Confronting Illness and Death: In Our Personal Lives and In the Therapy Room, presented by Elaine Belz, Ph.D.
Date: Thursday, March 15, 2012
Location: The Rutgers Club, 199 College Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ
Speaker: Elaine Belz, Ph.D.
Description:One of the difficult challenges we face in doing clinical work is that illness and death will inevitably touch our personal lives. We worry about how we can be there for our patients when we are distracted, deprsesed or anxious about what is happening to us personally. We can feel particularly exposed and vulnerable. Being a psychologist requires that we use ourselves as clinical instruments to contain, reflect, support, interpret and challenge ourselves and our patients.
