NPA January Member Spotlight

Anne Talbot, PsyD  

I joined the Nebraska Psychological Association about 30 years ago, shortly after earning my psychologist license – midlife, mid-career, and ready for a new chapter. By then, I’d already spent more than a decade working in health professions, so joining NPA felt like the natural next step in staying engaged and connected in the field. Read Dr. Talbot's full Member Spotlight HERE!

How do we make sense of mass attackers? All too often, we focus on things that happened to them: school shooters were bullied, workplace attackers were terminated, and so on. Yet, most people who experience such stressors do not become killers. Such explanations fail to consider who the people were that these things happened to. In other words, personality is often ignored as a factor in violence. The presentation will begin with a brief overview of Millon’s model of personality and how it differs from DSM-5-TR. Following this, several personality disorders will be discussed. Learn more and register HERE!
