Dr. Elizabeth Roxburgh presents “What is ‘clinical parapsychology’? An overview of anomalous experiences and mental health.”

In this talk I will give a brief overview of some of the research in this area, including findings from own research on mediumship, synchronicity in therapy, and counselling for anomalous experiences.
