Study With Me

I love supporting people to learn and develop—and creating environments with them for that to happen. To me the support and the creating are inseparable. Every particular person and group, every topic, every format and structure for study is an opportunity to create a study method that’s inclusive and developmental, challenging and fun, for all (me included). Each year I lead a few online short Revolutionary Conversations and an occasional in-person class or event, in addition to the study programs below.

Courses

Social Therapeutics: A Search for Method for Our Times

 

This certificate program I lead along with Institute faculty is an opportunity for an in-depth study of social therapeutics. The course offers a thorough exploration of the foundations, politics, philosophy and community-based applications of social therapeutics as a group performatory approach to human development and learning. More

 

The International Class

 

A “magical and mundane” 10-month program I lead with Institute faculty and guest presenters from across the NYC “development community.” The program introduces and develops social therapeutics as a new form of social activism. We combine three residencies in NYC coupled with seminars, supervision, and project development sessions conducted online. It’s open to practitioners, social entrepreneurs and scholars across all disciplines from the NYC area, across the US and throughout the world. More

 

Coaching & Customized Course of Study

 

The Institute offers flexible learning options for professionals from a variety of fields to study the social therapeutic method outside of a formalized training program. Individualized courses of study are designed to meet the needs and concerns of students interested in:

• A New Form of Social Activism
• Postmodern Methodology
• Creative Community Building
• Leadership Development
• A New Learning Model (for all ages)

 

Revolutionary Conversations

 

Most semesters I lead online and in-person conversations on a range of methodological / political issues in psychology and education, sometimes in conjunction with colleagues. Most recently, I led a “Revolutionary Conversation” with Robert Whitaker, “Mad In America:  Where Do We Go From Here?” Another popular conversation examined “The Myth of Psychology.”
