Residing in the Space Between: Suffering and the Dialectic of Hope and Dread

  • Boston College Newton, MA, 02467 United States (map)

4th and final talk of the 2023-2024 NECET Conference Series by Karley Guterres, MA, MTS. Responses by Allison Slocum and Bob Fox, LICSW.

Returning guest speaker Karley Guterres will turn directly toward working with suffering and the forces of hope and dread in clinical practice. Where these polarizing responses to suffering can reduce the world into black and white, this talk explores how we can stay in the gray areas: what it means to work under conditions of great existential uncertainty while resisting the temptation to cling to comfortable solutions in the face of anxiety.

We are hosted by and located at
