Presenter: Carolyn Edwards, MEd, Educational Therapist and Director of Turning Point Educational Services
When: February 5, 2016 (Friday)
Time: 12:30 - 2 p.m.

How can we understand what's happening when interactions in an education therapy relationship aren't going well?  In this lecture, we will frame an understanding of the infrequent but powerful times in which we, as professionals, are beset with difficult feelings, sensations, thoughts, and awarenesses.  This challenging counter-transference, unpleasant as it is, can be a trove of information about ourselves, the situation, and our students.  What are some ways we might "read" these intersubjective experiences to bring more acceptance and wisdom to our work?  The lecture will include two brief case studies and an opportunity to reflect creatively on another case.

Carolyn McVickar Edwards, MEd, educational therapist and director of Turning Point Educational Services (www.turning-point-edu.com) has long been interested in the balance between our necessary focus on academic skills and growth, and the complex co-realities of our emotional relationships with our clients.
