At NASW-NJ, we are very excited to have Phil Murphy as our Governor-Elect and Sheila Oliver as our next Lieutenant Governor.
They have been very supportive of our causes and will help usher in a new era of economic and social justice for our State.
In addition, we are pleased that Sheila Oliver is a social worker by training, and Dotty Murphy Egan, Phil's sister, is also a social worker. We look forward to working closely with the new administration.

IPS presents:
CONVERSATION: DAYDREAMS:
CONCEALED AND REVEALED IN THERAPY
Everybody daydreams.Daydreams revealed in therapy, however, can be understood as valuable information to understand a patient's personality including character traits, symptoms, and distress. Daydreams are different from nocturnal dreams.
One of the most important aspects of daydreams is that daydreamers are often concealed in therapy. As a result, daydreams may be missed by the therapist as a way of understanding unconscious material. This conversation will elicit a discussion of daydreams in psychotherapy.
November 12th 11:00 am- 1:00 pm
655 Pomander Walk, Teaneck, NJ
$25 for Non-Members of IPS
