PROGRAM
Crayton Rowe
Disillusionment as Evidence of Positive Growth in Patients with Psychological Disorders. — Psychological disorders are preoccupations with the negative. The presenter discusses the cause of psychological disorders as a misdirection of the undifferentiated selfobject discovery experience toward the negative. Through treatment, when the undifferentiated selfobject discovery experience becomes directed to the positive, only then can patients have something to lose and experience disillusionment. Treatment vignettes are offered.
After attending this presentation, attendees will be able to:
- Discuss the cause of psychological disorders.
- Define disillusionment as a positive step in the treatment of patients with psychological disorders.
Sandra Silverman
Past Trauma Evoked by Present Times: Impact of the Socio-Political on Clinical Work. — The current sociopolitical environment is increasing anxiety in our patients and in ourselves as it brings past trauma into present time, awakening feelings of disillusionment, abandonment, and fear. With a focus on issues of race, class, and especially gender, the presenter asks how to address dread of the future and trauma of the past in our patients when we may be concurrently experiencing similar fears and resurfacing trauma in ourselves.
After attending this presentation, attendees will be able to:
- Identify the ways in which the current sociopolitical environment may increase anxiety in our patients.
- Describe how countertransference is utilized to deepen clinical work with gender variant patients.
Boris Thomas
And Where Are You From?: Intersectional Identities and Geographic Relocation — Who is “from here” and “not from here”? What defines an immigrant? Touching on how US law and policy have shaped individual and group identities related to place, the presenter will explore the way we as members of American society and clinicians understand and manage the ethno-cultural disruptions resulting from geographic relocation. Through memoir and case examples, he will explore the intersectional connections—and disconnections—associated with geographic movement.
After attending this presentation, attendees will be able to:
- Identify the clinician's and client's places within that greater socio-political and legal context as well as the potential for meaning in the clinical encounter.
- Explain a key concept of multiple identification which lies at the heart of intersectionality.
George Hagman
New Models of Bereavement and Mourning, and Their Application to Our Understanding and Treatment of Communal Grief. — Recently psychoanalytic research has questioned many of the standard assumptions of bereavement and mourning. Outdated models of isolated mourning, stage models and fully resolved mourning have given way to innovative relational perspectives. The components of this new perspective will be explained, and their application to our understanding of communities that have suffered traumatic loss will be illustrated. The author’s experience providing services to the Newtown Community will be highlighted.
After attending this presentation, attendees will be able to:
- Discuss new Mourning models for treating bereavement reactions.
- Assess treatment methods for communities which have undergone traumatic loss.
Michael De Simone, Moderator
Each presentation will be followed by a dialogue among the panelists and audience.
