Beyond Pews and Couches: Exploring Collective Care Outside Church and Talk Therapy
There are no spaces available for this event.
Description
What if there is more beyond traditional church and talk therapy models?
Join theologians, Dwight Friesen and Joel Kiekintveld, in conversation with psychologist, Paul Hoard, as they explore the question of therapeutic models beyond church pews and the therapy couch.
How do we use the transformative tools of psychology and theology, but also not get stuck in models that lack responsiveness to these times?
Drawing on insights from psychoanalyst, Jacques Lacan, and sociologist, Philip Rieff, we will explore alternative pathways to discourse that critique the assumption that knowledge is held through mastery, control, and order.
