The Catholic Medical Association, St. Luke’s Society of Orange County welcomes all medical professionals and other healers to:
HELPING PATIENTS OVERCOME EMOTIONAL AND SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS
Do some of your patients feel insignificant, depressed, or afraid to assert themselves? Have they lost faith during challenging times? In this talk, licensed marriage and family therapist, Thomas Schmierer (pronounced “shmeer”), owner of HEALING AND PEACE Catholic Therapy Services, describes a developmental model for emotional maturity based on the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas that can help medical professionals learn how to help insecure patients move towards experiencing the world as confident, happy adults from the inside out.
