The Schizophrenia ComplexFeeling Our Way to a New Attitude
Saturday, February 24, 2024
11:00 am–4:00 pm EST (Please note the start time)
a Zoom seminar led by Eve Maram, PsyD
Contact hours: 4 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program.
This shared experience of lecture and workshop will be based upon material from Dr. Maram’s most recently released book on this topic (Chiron, 2022).
Jungian analyst Eve Maram’s The Schizophrenia Complex focuses on the thoughts and feelings constellated by encounters with what we call schizophrenia, for those who experience symptoms, and for those others impacted by them. To do so, Dr. Maram had to face her own fear, denial, resistance, and ultimate not knowing. The events inspiring her were beyond her control and rearranged her life without her permission.
Soul-Making - The Intersection of Jung and Spirituality
Saturday, March 23, 2024
10:00 am – 3:00 pm EST
a Zoom seminar led by Christina Becker, MBA, RP
Contact hours: 4 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program.
The phrase “soul-making” comes from 19th-century poet John Keats: “call the world, if you please, the vale of soul-making. Then you will find out the use of the world.” Thus, the events of the world are vehicles for creating soul, for building our capacity for interiority, for creating meaning by looking at things symbolically. We are in soul, and it is in us.
We don’t necessarily make soul. When we take the time to be with the quality and character of our inner experience of life, we become more attuned to the symbolic nature of psyche and increase our capacity for interiority.
