🧠 Lecture: "Personality Disorders in Your News and Neighborhood"

🎤 Speaker: Dr. Tomas Yufik

Join us for a captivating evening as Dr. Tomas Yufik unpacks the fascinating, often misunderstood world of personality disorders—conditions like Borderline Personality Disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and Dependent Personality Disorder that frequently capture public attention.

Dr. Yufik will clarify what these disorders really are, how they’re diagnosed, and why media and film so often get them wrong. Drawing on current research, he’ll explore what we actually know about treating personality disorders in therapy and address common misconceptions about whether meaningful change is possible.

To bring these ideas to life, Dr. Yufik peppers his talk with vivid examples from celebrity culture and popular media, making complex clinical concepts engaging, accessible, and entertaining.

Dr. Tomas Yufik is a distinguished professor of psychology and clinical psychologist who has taught at UCLA, the University of Maryland, and UCSD. His deep expertise in personality and psychopathology will challenge your assumptions and spark thoughtful conversation.
