LOVE, LOSS, AND LOST LOVE: Building Capacities for Loving, Losing, and Growing

This introductory event to the year-long San Francisco and East Bay intensive study groups (ISG) will explore ways to work with patients on the development and absence of capacities for love and its loss. Join us for an informal, dynamic conversation with a selection of our 2020-21 ISG instructors! If you’re considering registering for the fall ISG, this is an opportunity to bring your questions and comments into the conversation with the instructors.

This year's intensive study groups will investigate theoretical approaches and practical engagements with love and loss in the clinical setting. Topics include unremitting depressive states, developmental and intergenerational transmission of trauma, the impact of cultural hegemony on issues of depression and anxiety, enhancing patients’ positive community-affiliations, and the social construction of “otherness.” These discussions will contribute to participants’ understanding of the cultural contexts surrounding their clinical work.
