Against a reality of cutoffs that impact thousands of employees including 12% of 2.4 million civilian federal workers, others from Wall Street firms and well-known companies etc., psychologist, Dr. Jeffrey Kleinberg draws upon his expertise to consider how to work through "Lay-offs." He validates and considers the interval of shock, numbness, panic, anger, and sometimes identity confusion of facing a lay-off. Dr. Kleinberg examines and invites listeners to recognize, understand and work through the complex trauma of a sudden lay-off. He invites them to believe in the ability of transitioning from victim to effective survivor. Listen in.
