Successful come-back for ‘Psychology for all’ open seminar series

Our Psychology Department re-launched for academic year 2016-17 the ‘Psychology for all’ open seminar series that has been running successfully at our main campus in Thessaloniki for the past few years. The opening event featured Mr. Evangelos Sepetis, Psychologist, Psychodynamic Therapist and Director of Postgraduate Programmes in Counselling Psychology at the International Faculty, CITY College, who held an insightful presentation on ‘When Self-love prevents love for others’. The event took place on 18 November 2016 at our main campus in Thessaloniki.

Mr. Sepetis explained that self-love is as natural and essential, as food and drink. However, being around people loving themselves too much that can definitely have an effect on us.  He stressed out that self-love should not be confused with narcissism. In our days the word narcissism is wrongly used and linked to self-love. The speaker also went on providing an analytic scope of the narcissistic personality disorder and the primitive forces underpin.

The event concluded with a vivid Q&A between the audience and the speaker.

The series will continue to host 1-hour talks by different guest speakers specialising in different psychology areas who will be sharing their knowledge and expertise.
