| Description: |
The Congress will feature internationally renowned psychotherapists, representing different fields of psychotherapy, counseling, and related disciplines. A number of oral and poster presentations, invited symposia and workshops are currently being planned for the Congress. The theme for the conference is "World Dreaming", a phrase that captures something of the historical origins of psychotherapy and the cultural origins of Australian peoples. The emphasis on the human world of dreaming rather than the inanimate world of objects will provide a space for beginning to understand difference and move towards conciliation. In the minds of committee members, a diversity of "dreamings" is envisaged: infant dreaming, first people dreaming, trauma dreaming, healing dreaming, therapist dreaming, patient dreaming, brain dreaming, spirit dreaming, group dreaming, etc. The host organization, the World Council for Psychotherapy (WCP), is dedicated to recognition of psychotherapy as an independent discipline with its own body of knowledge based in the observation and understanding of human experience from the perspective of the psychotherapeutic relationship. Venue: Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre |
