  Program Description:

  The All-Institute program will be center around the case of a patient in psychoanalysis and how different analytic minds orient to what they hear. The patient’s history will not be provided but process notes from three sessions will be shared, showing how the analyst responded to and worked with the patient around dream material.

  Six panelists, comprised of two senior analysts, two graduate analysts, an analytic candidate in training, and a psychotherapy student, will then share their reactions and associations to the material presented. Attendees will then be invited to engage with the panelists for large group discussion.

  This presentation is targeted towards psychodynamic and psychoanalytic trainees, and psychoanalysts. The purpose of this event is to enhance attendees’ understanding of how to more effectively work with patients by learning about how their colleagues handle varied clinical issues.

  Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe how transference and countertransference are used to understand various aspects of the patient’s character structure.

  2. Discuss the subtleties in technique in how to interpret/respond to a patient.

  3. Demonstrate attunement to unconscious process as it emerges in the clinical/dream material and in the panel and large group discussion that follows.

  • Brian Ngo Smith, LCSW (moderator)
  • Neil Rosen, PsyD
  • Balin Anderson, LCSW
