The Centre for Climate Psychology invites you to an intimate conversation with Francis Weller, psychotherapist, writer, and grief tender, exploring the themes of his latest book In the Absence of the Ordinary.

This webinar is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and enter a shared inquiry into how we might live soulfully when so much of the familiar is falling away.

Together with our panel, we’ll explore how story and narrative shape our sense-making, not just as tools for understanding but as catalysts for imagination, extending our vision into possibilities that lie beyond the immediate and into the “more-than-human” world. This discussion will set the stage for the training, offering a taste of how complexity thinking can guide practical action and deepen our appreciation that, in a complex system, no agent is without importance.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) offers invaluable tools for transformative work at both personal and collective levels, particularly in communities working on climate and sustainability issues. Developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz, IFS frames the mind as an ecosystem of “parts,” each representing unique motivations, emotions, and beliefs. Through the lens of IFS, we can explore how even those committed to climate action and social change carry parts shaped by the very systems they strive to transform.

In this 2-part workshop, Dr. Wendy Greenspun outlines a psychological understanding of the various fractures and ruptures that are both embedded in and contributing to the unfolding climate crisis and it’s multiple layers of embedded harm and injustice.
