Getting Ready for a Maturing America Speakers: Rebecca Hunter, MEd, Institute on Aging and CDC-Healthy Aging Research Network, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Chris Kochtitzky, MSP, Associate Director for Program Development, Division of Emergency and Environmental Health Services, Center for Disease Control and Prevention; Mary A. Leary, PhD, Senior Director, Easter Seals Project ACTION, National Center on Senior Transportation & Other Transportation Initiatives; Joan M. Twiss, MA, Executive Director, Center for Civic Partnerships The startling new n4a report, The Maturing of America, concludes that many communities are unprepared for their quickly aging populations, with 'no where near the level of progress that has to be made to ensure that communities are livable for people of all ages'. This session provides practical, evidence-based strategies for integrated planning and implementation consistent with Smart Growth, but also specifically responsive to an aging population diverse in ethnicity, resources, health and functional status. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
| | | APSA_NY13-408 | | Meet-the-Author: Dr. Phillip M. Bromberg Speakers: Melinda Gellman, Philip M. Bromberg, Christine C. Kieffer Deepening his inquiry into the nature of what is therapeutic about the psychoanalytic relationship Dr. Bromberg explores the two interlocking rewards of successful treatment — healing and growth. By being an affectively alive partner who is simultaneously attentive to the dissociated impact of his own enacted participation, the analyst helps decrease the patient’s mistrust of potentially traumatizing “otherness” and its dissociated dread of attachment rupture. This in turn leads to both greater confidence in relational affect regulation and a growing ability to safely contain the self-state negotiation of otherness inherent to the experience of internal conflict. In its essence, Bromberg’s portrayal of therapeutic action restores self-state fluidity, liberating the patient’s capacity for trust without vigilance and permitting life to be lived with greater creativity, love and spontaneity. | | MP3 | | $20.00 | | $20.00 | |
