Supporting self-care for healing professionals using Logosynthesis with Dr. Lori Hops
Self-care is important for everyone, especially those in the healing professions. In the profession, there is a tendency to over give to the determinant of your own health, relationships and the quality of work you can deliver.
In this video, Dr. Lori Hops, a DCEP Licensed Psychologist and Practitioner in Logosynthesis® based in California, describes how Logosynthesis can support your self-care. As a model, Logosynthesis can be integrated with other treatment modalities. It works with more than the mind and the behaviours, but also the body and energy systems.

There is ongoing destruction and suffering resulting from Russia's War in Ukraine. We recognize that the laws and boundaries that are meant to protect are not sufficient.
