Three Walker psychology interns presented at the 2009 Tanner Conference at Wellesley College earlier this month.
Wellesley undergraduate psychology students Katherine E. O’Donnell, Katherine H. Frost, and Rachel P. So shared their experiences working in the Walker summer program in their presentation “Where the Troubled Ones Are: Assisting Traumatized Children”. Their discussion offered their firsthand insights into the therapeutic strategies developed at Walker for working with children who have suffered from severe abuse and neglect or traumatic events.
Created in 2001, the annual Tanner Conference “provides a venue for students and alumnae to reflect critically upon, analyze and share their off-campus experiences with others” in the Wellesley community.
