Conference and Event Calendar
El Instituto Iberoamericano del Bowen Center presenta su décima conferencia, con el propósito de continuar difundiendo los aportes de la Teoría de Bowen entre la comunidad hispanohablante y promover la reflexión en torno a las respuestas que este marco teórico ofrece a los desafíos contemporáneos en el ámbito de la salud mental.
En esta oportunidad, se abordará uno de los aportes fundamentales de la teoría de Bowen: la comprensión multigeneracional de los síntomas. A partir del análisis y la ejemplificación mediante un caso clínico, se desarrollarán conceptos centrales que permiten comprender la emergencia de sintomatología física, psíquica y social en el contexto de los procesos emocionales de los que los individuos forman parte.
