Finding dignity in the face of indignity


Finding dignity in the face of indignity – speaker: Lynne Jacobs

Gestalt and psychoanalytic observations of the issues of dignity in the times of crisis and involuntary movements.

What does psychotherapy offer to support human dignity in a world in which indignities are rampant? Learning skill with one’s affective process, unpacking the pressures of social belonging/non-belonging, and working from a dialogical perspective are relevant to finding and restoring one’s sense of dignity when dignity has been assaulted.
