Brok, PhD, Director Ellen Gussaroff, PhD, LCSW, Co-Director Delverlon Hall, EdD, LMSW, Assistant Director Mini-Workshop Series 2016 _____________________________ Saturday May 14, 2016 10:30 AM — 1:30 PM 3 CEUs will be offered for this workshop NESTERS VS. ADVENTURERS: An Attachment Perspective Tripp Evans, PhD, LCSW, and Gil Consolini, PhD, LCSW Are you a Nester or an Adventurer? When you want to de-stress or re-energize, do you want to stay home or to go out into the world? Would your partner give the same answer? If not, does the difference make for balance or tension in your relationship? What if something happens to upset the balance? What if your life won’t let you be who you are?   These are questions that may be important for the couples we want to help as well as for ourselves.  Using case material, presenters will show how attachment theory can shed light on these differences and help us to work with them in couple therapy. ________________________________ Tripp Evans, PhD, LCSW has been working with couples for over 20 years and is currently in private practice.
