Beyond Words - Trauma and Human Condition

Registration is now OPEN


Confirmed Keynote Speaker:
Professor Paul Gilbert, Mental Health Research Unit, Kingsway Hospital Derby

Trauma impacts on individuals, families and societies in ways that challenge the human capacity to endure, survive and grow. This conference provides an opportunity to learn how psychotherapy, of various theoretical orientations, endeavours to transform the unspeakable and bear the intolerable, often challenging psychotherapists to go beyond the technicalities of words, of therapeutic techniques, in the search for understanding and enabling of individual growth and recovery. Our keynote speakers and presenters have demonstrated this in their search to improve psychotherapeutic theory and practice and their work sets the context for this conference.

Day 2 - Human values, trauma and society- compassion, war and psychosis
