We have heard about the importance of childhood experiences in shaping us as adults. But how exactly do our early relational experiences inform the way in which we frame our experiences as adults?
In our eleventh seminar, Prof. Bhatia will examine the utility of attachment theory in understanding a range of issues such as our mental health, career trajectory, and even the relationship with our therapist!
