Balint Response to COVID-19

  Short-term Online Balint Groups
Given the restrictions and heightened emotions from the COVID- 19 pandemic the American Balint Society is offering free short-term online Balint groups. These groups will meet every other week for four sessions, and will be structured to have a check-in at the beginning, classic Balint, and a check-in at the end. In that way the group can facilitate connection, support, and use the Balint method.

Saturdays from 11am - 12:30pm Eastern Beginning June 13th

Balint Group Leader Education Fellowship 

Are you a medical educator responsible for teaching professional and interpersonal competencies? 

Is your organization - whether a group practice, hospital or healthcare agency - confronting patient dissatisfaction or provider burnout?

Have you attended a Balint Leader Intensive Training workshop, excited to begin a group at your site but know you need more? 

The one-year Balint leader fellowship - a distance learning program you can do without leaving your site - will help you feel more competent and confident as a leader and provide the support you need.
