The Denver Conference Is Not To Be Missed
Mary R. Morgan, a twinless twin, and a licensed psychotherapist working in NYC, specializing in twin bereavement will be our keynote speaker. She is writing two books on the topics of the therapeutic issues involved in twin bereavement and her journey of healing from her own twin loss. Previous conference attendees will testify to Mary's compassion, insight and wisdom, and her unique ability to bring people together, as each twin's healing journey continues.
Mary will also facilitate a TTSGI break-out session. Margery Runyan LCSW, ACSW, a twinless twin professional, will also lead a workshop. Dr. Nancy Segal, author of Entwined Lives, twin researcher and a twin herself, will address the membership about losing a twin. Her twinloss survey will be available to fill out on a voluntary basis.
See you there.
From Phyllis/ twin to Phil, and Amber/ daughter of a twin and board member:
Hi Twins- We are looking forward to seeing old twin friends from conferences past and making new ones this July in our fair city of Denver. Come enjoy the twinships, the scenery, and the Rocky Mountains...why not make a family vacation out of the conference and stay some extra days? There is so much to see in the Denver area and its surroundings. We will welcome back the balloon release during our Memory Walk...a special time for all the twinless twins. Please ask family, friends, co-workers, and others to sponsor you on the Memory Walk.... we are hoping it will be as successful as the walk was last year in Toronto. See you in July!!
