The case presentation of a long-term analysis offers us glimpses of process in which both patient and analyst are challenged to move beyond fixed and rigid positions. Perennial theoretical and clinical questions such as – what is the therapeutic value of interpretation, what is neutrality, what is the role of transference, and how does theoretical openness allow the work to deepen – are explored by four discussants from different schools of thought. From the intrapsychic to the relational to the political, we know that accepting difference is one of our greatest current challenges. Can we then acknowledge our differences while still remaining open to one another’s perspectives?

Learning Objectives: After attending this presentation, participants will be able to
– Identify, compare, and contrast different theoretical approaches to working with analytic impasses and stalemates.
– Apply different theoretical approaches to working with analytic stalemates and impasses in their clinical work.
