The Roundtable
Bangor, Whiting, Bucksport and Bremen
Purpose
The Roundtable provides mental health clinicians with the opportunity to be participant-presenters–learning from each other, providing peer support and researching and presenting in areas of personal interest. The Roundtable also hopes to support/develop play therapists.
How it Works
Each participant/presenter presents on an area of interest once during the year. Typically the presentations are 1 1/2 to 3 hours long. Meeting with the same small group of therapists during the year facilitates supportive relationships.
