This presentation is part of a forthcoming book on psychoanalytic supervision and consultation. It summarizes both the gratifications and the challenges of supervising candidates in analytic institutes, addressing dynamics involving boundaries, regressive pulls, issues of psychoanalytic identity, idealization and devaluation, splitting, fears about exposure, and systemic pressures that may compromise patient care. In the context of current controversies about psychoanalytic training, it depicts some complications of supervising at this level in the context of what is often an enmeshed professional community.

Learning Objectives: After attending the presentation, participants will be able to
– Discuss empirical findings on the degree to which candidates in institutes withhold information from supervisors.
– Name three aspects of supervision in psychoanalytic institutes that differentiate this process from other instances of psychodynamic supervision and consultation.

Through a psychoanalytic lens, this min-course will examine working with couples, while paying special attention to socio-political and systemic dynamics that often underlie couples’ dynamics. The instructor will employ psychoanalytic concepts such as projective identification, in tandem with postcolonial race theory, and feminist and queer theory, and attend to other ideological factors that are often powerful sources of difference that couples and analysts do not always know how to engage. The course will utilize didactic theoretical material, case studies from instructor’s practice, film footage from the docu-series Couples Therapy, and participants’ cases, within a large and small groups format.

Learning Objectives: After attending the presentation, participants will be able to
– Describe ways to employ a psychoanalytic lens to couples’ work.
– Discuss the importance of socio-political and systemic dynamics that underlie couples’ dynamics.
– Apply psychoanalytic concepts and ideological factors in couples’ therapy.

What about hope and/or despair in the new year? Will we be unified or divided as the vaccine rolls out and the new government settles in? Where are we in our understanding of racism, global warming, social upheaval, healthcare?  After more than 9 months of sheltering in place and practicing virtually, what more have we discovered about the psychoanalytic process? What are reactions to returning to the consulting room? How is the analytic frame holding up over time, in the midst of shock and dislocation? The clinical encounter will be the focus through the “holding environment” of our analytic community.

Learning Objectives: After attending the presentation, participants will be able to
– Discuss the manifestation of transference, countertransference, dreamwork, and such, under adverse societal conditions.
– Identify how the analytic frame functions in a continually changing environment.

1.75 CE contact hours will be granted to participants with documented attendance and complete evaluation form. It is the responsibility of the participants seeking CE credits to comply with these requirements. Upon completion, a Certificate of Attendance will be emailed to all participants.
