The programme of TAP Talks 2019/20
The next TAP Talk takes place on: 21st February 2020 The Speaker Claire Plews Subject: “Resilience in therapy” ‘The forces of fate that bear down on man and threaten to break him also have the capacity to ennoble him’ (Lukas 1984). This quote underpins Claire’s understanding of resilience within therapy and raises some interesting questions... Why is it that some individuals crumble and break when faced with adversity whereas others find an inner strength that enables them to grow into something greater than they were before? These questions will be examined as part of Claire’s talk on resilience and are an area that she is currently researching as part of her Doctoral research at the University of Bristol. Claire also has 17 years working in private practice and as lecturer on a Counselling degree program at Weston College. The talk starts at 7.45pm and lasts up to 1.5 hours with Q & A (Tea & Biscuits provided) |
