I am just beginning to digest my experience at AGPA Connect ‘26. Group therapy is the real deal, I feel more nourished and challenged at this conference than in any other professional event! Some major highlights are featured, from the left corner clockwise: I was awarded Fellowship this year, recognized for my investment in AGPA and contribution to the field of Group Psychotherapy; I celebrated at Nobu with another social worker and incoming Fellow, Donna Harris; reveling in our work being featured in the onsite bookstore with fellow social worker, dear friend and my supervisor/consultant since 2002 (!) Jeanne Bunker, HGPS friends Marina Rathjens and Lauren Ziff, celebrating the tenure of my dear mentor Ginger Sullivan and the AGPA Co-Chairs dinner, with my dear Queens Karly Marx and Sinclair after their second annual “Queening Out” Open Session, and with Karly aka John Stitt before the transformation! I loved seeing so many if you there and sharing in hugs, discussion, connection.
