Training Program, New York, New York
Mother-daughter
interaction originates the daughter's development of a "relational
self." This all-women experiential workshop will examine the impact
of mothers on daughters' emotional, interpersonal and professional
life. Participants' "here & now" interactions will provide a "hall
of mirrors" for observing members' various aspects of the self.
Conflicts in this core relationship and ways to resolutions will be
addressed.
