Digital Diaries: Joshua

AN INTRODUCTION TO JOSHUA & HIS DIGITAL DIARY ENTRIES

THERAPISTS’ TEAM DISCUSSION: JOSHUA

In this webinar, we will meet Joshua, a young adult struggling to find his place in the world, and his therapist Dr. Michael Gomez. Feeling like a “loner” most of his life, Josh has faced many difficulties while growing up. In addition to being abandoned by his mother and lacking a connection with his foster mother, Josh also has had a “love/hate” relationship with his father. In spite of this, he still longs to be part of a family and has been trying to reconnect with his father and his father’s new wife and kids (Josh’s half siblings).

Digital Diaries: Samantha

Samantha’s Introduction & Digital Diary Entries

Therapists’ Team Discussion: Samantha

In this webinar, using a new “Digital Diaries” format, we will meet Samantha, a high school student, and her trauma therapist, Dr. Ernestine Briggs-King. During the webinar, we will learn about Samantha’s challenges and struggles, but also her triumphs as she navigates through her traumatic experiences. In a unique approach, Dr. Briggs-King encourages Samantha to complete diary entries, not in the traditional paper and pencil way, but electronically. This affords us the opportunity to be with Samantha as she processes these experiences and discovers incredible strengths she is able to tap into.
