MAKING ROOM FOR RESEARCH WITH DR POORNIMA BHOLA

Event Description

Psychologists seek answers as practitioners or as researchers. Do we need to choose between these two seemingly diverging roads? As therapists, we often
look for research that is meaningful and can strengthen our practice.
In this interactive session, we will discuss our relationship with research and explore resources to potentially wear both hats.
