Gender Styles: How Masculine and Feminine Dynamics Impact Homeopathic Healing – Dr. Joel Kreisberg, DC, PCC, CCH

 Understanding gender style provides  powerful cues for fostering healing. Masculine – abstract, impersonal, objective, deductive, and independent, contrasts with feminine – narrative, personal, experiential, and connective. More of a gradient, gender style reflects ways of being in the world expressed in every patient we come in contact with. Less physiological gender, gender style is about the way a person identifies with their thinking, feeling and behaving and how this shows up in their way of being.

The masculine approach, so often utilized in homeopathic case taking and management, is a dynamic deductive way to finding the simillimum. Yet the feminine approach is utilized due to its ability to foster ongoing healing in an embodied way. Dr. Kreisberg will guide participants through a series of learning activities. We’ll share stories, listen, and learn from one another as we consider the impact of gender style on interpersonal dynamics of the homeopathic clinical encounter.
