Erich Fromm: A Contemporary Introduction. Presented by Sandra Buechler, PhD

CE CREDITS AVAILABLE FOR NYS PRACTITIONERS.

This webinar is live, real-time and interactive.

From our speaker Sandra Buechler: Erich Fromm, who was born in 1900, continues to inspire me in 2024. His humanistic insights are highly relevant to the clinical and societal challenges we face today. In this talk, I explore Fromm’s concepts of the “pathology of normalcy,” paradox in treatment, productive and non-productive orientations, and becoming a “physician of the soul,” among other concepts. I express why Fromm has a special place in my own “internal chorus” of wise voices I can “consult” in moments of need.
