| | | APSA_NY12-500 | | Panel IV: Siblings, Identity Development and Clinical Process Speakers: Rosemary Balsam, MD (New Haven, CT); Christine C. Kieffer, PhD (Chicago, IL); Jeanine M. Vivona, PhD (Philadelphia, PA); Joseph D. Lichtenberg, MD (Bethesda, MD); Salman Akhtar, MD (Ardmore, PA); Reporter: Gabriel Ruiz, MA, LCPC (Chicago, IL) This panel examines the influence of siblings on identity development from multiple theoretical perspectives. The objective of the panel is to expand theoretical and clinical appreciation for the lifelong developmental contributions of siblings. The panelists focus in particular upon the impact of sibling recognition in the construction of identity as well as explore the contributions of “psychoanalytic siblings,” that is, those other patients, seen and unseen, may contribute to the elaboration of transference themes and transference/counter-transference enactments. Finally, the panel focuses on how those without biological siblings may seek sibling equivalents, particularly in the course of treatment. Each panelist contributes a short clinical vignette to illustrate these themes. Audio CDs: 3 | | Audio CD | | $45.00 | | $45.00 | |
