What Difference Does it Make in One’s Life to Work on Differentiation of Self?

Presenter: Anne McKnight, EdD, LCSW

Bowen theory posits that the effort for Differentiation of Self in one’s family has an impact both on one’s own life and the life of one’s family. Differentiation of Self is not an endpoint but a process toward more mature functioning. In this conference, individuals will be interviewed who have made significant efforts toward differentiation. These efforts include gaining perspective and knowledge through research on their families, understanding triangles, bridging cutoff, and the work to define themselves in important relationships.

The conference day provides a maximum of 4.5 hours of Category I continuing education credit for social workers and for counselors. Please note- a separate registration is required for CEs.
