- Short Description:
- This dialogue explores depression as a disorder of perspective, shaped more by coping style and social context than by biology alone.

Participants gain practical strategies for building resilience and preventing relapse, while situating depression within a broader cultural and relational framework .

- Short Description:
- This short course looks at midlife and aging as an active psychological passage rather than a decline to be managed. Drawing from Jungian psychology, cultural stories, film, and clinical experience, it explores identity shifts, generativity, shadow material, legacy, and the inner timing that reshapes priorities in the second half of life. The session offers therapists a rich, reflective way to think about meaning, resilience, and conscious aging, both in their clients’ lives and their own
