IPS Alumus, Greg Kolodziejczak, Psy.D., kicks off the 11th Annual
Newman Lecture Series

“What a fabulous lecture! Dr. Kolodziejczak has a way of simplifying complex concepts to make them understandable,” raved master’s student Laura Cusumano after the first of the 2011-12 Newman Lectures, Physiological Factors in the Distortions of Love.
A much-anticipated and well-received addition to this year’s series, Psychology of the Body, was the live broadcast from IPS’ newly expanded campus. Forty-one people attended the lecture virtually, and the overflow crowd of 72 attended in person.
IPS was proud to welcome one of its first doctoral graduates to kick-off this year’s series. Dr. Kolodziejczak now works primarily in private practice in Cambridge, Massachusetts where he works with couples and families, and individually with adults and adolescents. Dr. Kolodziejczak specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy used for treating patients with Borderline Personality Disorder.
Addressing the Physiological Factors in the Distortions of Love, he began with a philosophical foundation, bringing together the true nature of the person and how it plays out in the development of the self.
Furthermore, he stated that affirmation and empathic attunement prove to be crucial factors in the development of the mental models that end up influencing the sense of self.
Through Kolodziejczak’s clinical experience, he was able to give examples of how effective therapy entails implicit learning, and how critical the therapist-client relationship is in practice.
A wine and cheese reception followed the presentation, allowing guests and members of the IPS community to further reflect on the implications of the lecture. Tours were also offered to showcase the newly renovated campus.
During the course of the Psychology of the Body series, speakers will strive to further the understanding of the human person as a unity of body and soul, by paying special attention to the body as a window to the psyche or spiritual soul.
The next Newman Lecture will be held on Friday, October 21st with Fr. John Bartunek, L.C. presenting Sanctification of Desire: Contemplating the Eucharistic Body of Christ.
