Please join us online for an experiential workshop with Peter T. Dunlap, PhD, exploring how small-group work can activate our psychocultural development. Drawing on his experience convening Belonging, Becoming, and Engaging (BBE) groups, Dr Dunlap introduces moral attention—the integration of love, political justice, and a scientific commitment to truth. Engaging Jung’s vision of collective individuation, the workshop examines why today’s cultural and socio-political crises cannot be separated from the epidemic of loneliness, nor external problems from internal psychological life. Participants will explore how ideologies, underlying worldviews, multigenerational histories, and unresolved trauma shape both psyche and society. Integrating clinical, sociopolitical, and evolutionary perspectives, this workshop considers how small groups become living laboratories for belonging, shared becoming, and transformation.
