Greetings Ego State Therapy colleagues and friends,
I am delighted to finally be getting this edition of the ESTI newsletter out to you. The passing of Maggie Phillips left a huge void in our Ego State Therapy community, including the need for a new ESTI newsletter editor, and I have assumed that role. For those who don’t know me, Maggie did an interview with me a few years ago for the newsletter which can be found here: ESTI Newsletter Interview with Wendy, 2020. Or, you can read my biography listed on my website (which is always a work in progress and in need of updates) at https://www.wendylemke-psy.com/about.
Thank you to all who have assisted with this edition. I couldn’t have done it without you, and please know that I will need your assistance and contributions for future issues. Please send contributions for future issues to me: Wendy Lemke at wendylemkelp@gmail.com.
So much has gone on in the last few years and we continue to have turmoil around the globe. If only our world leaders could know, understand, and implement the ego state therapy principles that help so many of our clients with their own internal warfare. This edition’s bonus box includes a link to an iMovie I made a few years ago given the divisive situation of our country at the time. Sadly, not much has changed, and we still need assistance in ending internal as well as external warfare. I hope you enjoy the clip and this issue of our ESTI newsletter. There is much to read about what has been happening in our EST community around the globe. As Helen Keller states, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.”
Wendy Lemke, MS LP, ESTI Newsletter editor
