But in our silo-dominated therapy metaculture, the beingness is often left undiscussed.

Jay Einhorn and Noriko Martinez come at that beingness both similarly and differently, but they share a commitment to understanding human experience in its own context first. They ground their understanding of how therapy works on that basis.

Jay and Noriko will discuss aspects of human nature, how therapy works, and how they apply that in their own therapeutic work and in their consultation with therapists.
