Two Virtual Saturdays: April 20th 2024 and April 27th 2024, from 9am-12:30pm EST. Sign in and Opening Remarks at 9am followed by two online presentations each conference day. NYS CEs available (3 CEs for each conference day) for NYS-licensed social workers, psychologists, mental health counselors, marriage and family therapists, and psychoanalysts.
On April 20th, from 9:30am-11am EST, Dr. Sandra Buechler, PhD will be presenting on “Phases of a Meaningful Career” to share her professional experiences and the development of her career path as a clinician and psychoanalyst. From 11am-12:30pm EST, Dr. Samoan Barish, PhD, will then be presenting on “Whistle While You Work: Work, Identity and Its Vicissitudes,” where she will discuss the myriad of meanings that work holds for each of us. We all know how central work is for our sense of self-worth, purpose, meaning and our need for mastery, indeed, for our very identity. Certainly, meaningful work performs various functions for each of us, and these functions may change at different stages and phases of our lives.
