Psyche Matters

Short talks and professional development seminars for Taranaki counsellors, therapists, mental health workers, people who work in pastoral care and anyone interested in psychology, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis and psychosynthesis.

A winter series of lunch hour talks and conversation that introduce themes to further our understanding about what it means to be human. The contributions of some psychoanalytic and psycho-spiritual thinkers will be explained in everyday language to provide inspiration for your own thinking. After a centring exercise Lynne will present some thoughts on the theme and then invite participants to contribute their fresh thinking on ageless subjects.

This is an opportunity for low cost sampling of my style of presentation for those involved in the helping professions
and interested members of the public. Entry is by donation to SF Taranaki, Supporting Families in mental illness. Tea and Coffee are available. Bring lunch if you wish.
