Presidential Symposium: The Twilight of the Training Analysis System

Speakers: Robert L. Pyles

This presentation will summarize the principal analyses of the training analysis system formulated over the past 30 years, pointing to this system’s relevance regarding authoritarianism, infantilization, intellectual stultification, and institutional corruption in psychoanalytic education. The question is raised, whether replacing the present structure of psychoanalytic institutes and governance of psychoanalytic education may have a renovating effect on psychoanalytic science and profession, and on the impact of psychoanalysis on the broader scientific, cultural, and mental health environment. One such possible model of modern transformation of psychoanalytic education is presented, its advantages and constraints discussed, and the inevitable resistances to change explored.

Scientific Paper 1: The Psychoanalyst and the Clinic: A Balint Group for Psychiatrists

Speakers: Jonathan Sklar; Norman V. Kohn

The paper offers an original description of Balint Group methodology and its relevance for training psychiatrists. Central is the understanding that the psychiatrist presents his clinical problem with the patient. Making the doctor’s counter-transference central to the process moves it away from being supervision i.e., the technical acquisition of skills. This is key for Balint, for whom acquiring psychodynamics “entails a limited, though considerable change in the doctor’s personality.” This paper is a tribute to developing Balint’s ideas and offering graphic vignettes of the difficulty and value of working with psychiatrists in this way. The author is a Training and Supervising analyst at the British Psychoanalytical Society.

Plenary Address: Second Century for Psychoanalysis and for APsaA — Their Fates May Differ

Speakers: Warren Procci

Psychoanalysis has entered its second century. The current state of the field is mixed, and somewhat bifurcated. Psychoanalysis as a discipline, as a theoretical corpus, and as an area for academic inquiry is holding its own if not necessarily thriving. Contrarily, psychoanalysis as represented in its institutes, societies, centers, and especially within APsaA, our major professional organization, is in a serious decline. The complex reasons for these quite different situations are examined. An inability of the major competing components of our organization to work towards meaningful compromise is, in the speaker’s view, a major factor. Some thoughts concerning what must be done, and quickly, are offered.

Meet-the-Author: Dr. Phillip M. Bromberg

Speakers: Melinda Gellman, Philip M. Bromberg, Christine C. Kieffer

Deepening his inquiry into the nature of what is therapeutic about the psychoanalytic relationship Dr. Bromberg explores the two interlocking rewards of successful treatment — healing and growth. By being an affectively alive partner who is simultaneously attentive to the dissociated impact of his own enacted participation, the analyst helps decrease the patient’s mistrust of potentially traumatizing “otherness” and its dissociated dread of attachment rupture. This in turn leads to both greater confidence in relational affect regulation and a growing ability to safely contain the self-state negotiation of otherness inherent to the experience of internal conflict. In its essence, Bromberg’s portrayal of therapeutic action restores self-state fluidity, liberating the patient’s capacity for trust without vigilance and permitting life to be lived with greater creativity, love and spontaneity.

Symposium I: Embodiment & Subjectivity

Speakers: Andrea Celenza, John C. Foehl, Jessica Benjamin

This symposium addresses the role of the body through phenomenal experiencing, i.e., embodiment, as conceptualized by philosophical writers and contemporary relational theorists (especially from the perspective of intersubjectivity). Presymbolic, unmentalized bodily experience provides a ground of skin-contact and rhythmicity from which the capacities of differentiating and integrating experiences arise, especially as these are organized around a variety of binaries: inner/outer, self/other and female/male. Psychopathology is understood as a collapse of dialectical interplay, causing disruptions in early patterns of interpersonal recognition, flexibility and play. Presenters discuss how transcending binarial constraints can result in greater creativity and overall well-being.

Scientific Paper #7: Recovery from Childhood Psychiatric Treatment

Speakers: David Mintz, Adele Tutter

Increasingly, our patients have been medicated since childhood, with profound consequences for personal identity, becoming a source of deep-rooted feelings defect. Other problems arise when pills are used defensively to localize a family pathology in the child who receives the prescription. Furthermore, when medications are used to manage a child’s feelings, confusions may result about the signal function of emotions, truncating development. Cases of young adults, prescribed medications in childhood, are reviewed, with particular attention to developmental consequences. This session explores dynamic mechanisms of harm and examples of psychotherapeutic work that can help such patients seek healthier developmental paths.
