📍 Location: Blutenburgstraße 59, Munich
What’s This About?
Everyone has heard that childhood is especially formative for our psychological development. But why? What exactly do we learn in childhood, and how does it affect us later in life?
This is the second talk in a series exploring two questions:
What influence do childhood and adolescence have on our adult lives?
How does therapy help us change?
In this second session — Too close or too far: understanding relationship patterns pt. 2— we will take a first look at how early experiences shape what we seek and avoid in social relationships.
This session includes a 60-minute talk, followed by an open-ended group exercise and discussion.
We’ll explore questions such as:
Why do we feel the need to hide parts of ourselves and struggle to fully show who we are, even in close relationships?
How does our past influence the way we interpret our own behavior and that of others, and how can this shape our lives?
How are therapists trained to recognize these patterns, and what role can they play in the therapeutic process?
