Previous Classes

Working with Chronic Pain, Serious Illness, and Remote States
Pierre Morin, M.D., Ph.D.
People have different beliefs about their health issues and the modes of
treatment they choose. Biological, psychological, social, spiritual, or
indigenous explanations influence individual's health care choices. This
suggests the need for a pluralistic treatment philosophy which fosters
cooperation among diverse approaches to illness management. This training lab will provide an overview of the psycho-social processes involved in chronic/serious illness and will offer skills for working in various settings, e.g. private practice or as part of a team in a clinic,
hospital, agency, etc.
Saturday, October 4, 2008, 9:30 am -12:30 pm
Cost: $50 before September 19; $60 thereafter.
