Educator’s Symposium: Evolving Child Psychoanalytic Practice Within Local to Global Community Systems

Speakers: Chair: Ann Marie Sacramone, M.S.Ed., L.P. (NY, NY) Presenter: Edward Eismann, Ph.D. (Bronx, NY) Discussant: Neil Altman, Ph.D. (New York, NY)

This symposium, sponsored by the APsaA Schools Committee, co-chaired by John S. Tieman, Ph.D. and Tillie Garfinkel, M.Ed., will consider evolving ideas of social psychoanalytic practice with children in settings ranging from local (classroom, neighborhood, and village) to global community systems. Three analysts will describe child treatment models that depend on the analyst working in concert with the child’s social systems. Tracing change in the child, community and analyst, participants will ponder about a relational response to our current socio-cultural harms. Dr. Eismann will narrate and illustrate in video his 49 year community practice in the South Bronx stemming from Freudian, Adlerian, and social support theory perspectives. Ms. Sacramone will offer case material from a child-in-community practice grounded on infancy research, and self-psychology. Dr. Altman will discuss his observations of communities internationally that developed unique culturally based therapeutic approaches.

Speakers: Chair: Valerie Golden, J.D., Ph.D. (Minneapolis, MN) Award Recipient & Discussant: Anton O. Kris, M.D. (Cambridge, MA) "LOVE’S NOT TIME’S FOOL: SOME CONTINUITIES, DISCONTINUITIES, AND ALTERATIONS IN PSYCHOANALYSIS DURING MY LIFETIME "

Anton O. Kris, M.D., renowned Psychiatrist, Professor, Training and Supervising Analyst, and author, is the 2017 recipient of the Candidates Council Master Teacher Award. Drawing on clinical examples, Dr. Kris will identify: 1) continuities in psychoanalysis that have endured from the mid- 1930s to the present (for example, the recognition of unconscious mental processes, the use of free association, and the importance of unconscious conflict); 2) discontinuities in psychoanalysis, features that have undergone significant modifications since the 1930s (for example, the full development of the structural point of view, the elaboration of pre-oedipal development; and female development and sexual preferences); and 3) radical alterations in psychoanalysis since the 1930s (for example, the recognition of the analyst’s subjectivity, the revised understanding of countertransference, and the analyst’s participatory role in the analytic process).
