“A Shadow Concept”


Fred Busch, PhD.


Discussant:  Martin Ceaser, MD
 

The focus of this talk is the significance of preconscious thinking, its relationship to unconscious fantasies, and the role it plays in helping patients discover a transitional space where thoughts and feelings can be played with.  Freud’s forgotten struggle with preconscious thinking is re-opened, while Green’s (1974) seminal paper on the preconscious is the basis for exploring ways of thinking about psychoanalytic treatment.

Fred Busch, Ph.D., is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Psychoanalytic Institute of New England, East, a member of the faculty of the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute and the Massachusetts Institute of Psychoanalysis.  He has published widely on the application of contemporary ego psychology to psychoanalytic technique.

“Developmental Psychoanalysis:  An Example from Child Analysis”


Jill Miller, PhD


Discussant TBA.
 

With a young child, the relationship between psychoanalytic and developmental processes is intricate.  The work involves not only looking back, but also keeping an eye on the present and looking toward the future.  Developmental issues and technical interventions are illustrated in the analysis of Kyle, which began when he was three years ten months of age, and ended 21 months later at five and one half.

Jill Miller, Ph.D., is a Child and Adolescent and Adult Training and Supervising Analyst, and a faculty member at the Denver Institute for Psychoanalytic Studies.

“Work in the Parent-Toddler Groups at the Anna Freud Center”


Marie Woods
 

This talk describes the work of the parent-toddler groups at the Anna Freud Centre.  It shows how the psychoanalytically informed work of the groups, supplemented occasionally by individual work with the parents, can support toddler development and strengthen the parent-child relationship.  Starting with a brief overview of our psychoanalytic understanding of toddlerhood as a crucial developmental phase, the paper describes the individual and group interventions designed to promote it, and the parallel processing within the team.  It shows how this sort of work can reach out to a vulnerable group of parents and young children who would not normally seek psychoanalytic help.  The understanding gained from parent-toddler groups also can inform and enrich the psychoanalytic work we do in our consulting rooms.

Marie Zaphirious Woods is a psychoanalyst working with children and adults.  She first trained as a child psychotherapist at the Hampstead Clinic (now known as the Anna Freud Centre), qualifying in 1977.  In subsequent years, she worked at Brixton Child Guidance Clinic, Brent Adolescent Centre and the Anna Freud Centre.  She qualified as a psychoanalyst in 1994, and became a full member of the British Society in 2001.

Third Annual Paul Gray Visiting Scholar Program
 

“The Special Reality of the Analytic Situation”
 

Lawrence Levenson, MD

Discussant: James Hutchinson, M.D.

 

As much as any analyst who has written on technique, Paul Gray gave much thought to what it means to analyze the patient’s mind instead of the patient’s life and placed importance on fashioning a technique that took account of the difference.  Implicit in Gray’s thinking about technique is the notion that the analyst constructs an analytic situation as a special setting.  Dr. Levenson demonstrates how the analyst maintains a focus on the immediate psychic events when the patient refers to external reality rather than joining the patient in adopting an outside focus.  He emphasized Gray’s point that attention to fresh moments of conflict leads to experiential insight in conjunction with cognitive insight.

Dr. Levenson is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Western New England Institute for Psychoanalysis and Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine.  He has served on the editorial board of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.  In 2001 he received the Menninger Prize from the American Psychoanalytic Association.

“An Overview of Psychoanalytic Business and Organizational Consulting

 

This seminar will introduce interested psychoanalysts and psychoanalytically-oriented therapists to consulting to businesses and organizations in the private and public sector.  The course reviews the development of this field from Freud’s nascent thinking about group psychology to the work of Klein, Bion, and later object-relations theorists, to modern day thinking of representatives from ego, self and relational psychologies and from the business world.  Historical and present day case material is used to illustrate the utility of this approach and to lend texture to introductory readings in the field.  Consideration is given to the technical and practical considerations of beginning a practice and carrying out a consultancy.


This course will explore the following topics:

1.   Group Psychology.

2.   Consultation methods.

3.   Psychodynamics in modern organizations.

4.   Ego Psychology, Object Relations theory, and Self Psychology tools.

5.   Consultation as a practice.

At this seminar/workshop, clinical material and case presentations will provide background for exploring how to work with parents when their child is in treatment. Case presentations will illustrate assumptions about work with parents, as well as shed light on new directions in managing these key relationships while enhancing treatment.

Therapists can learn effective approaches, from the first phone call to the last goodbye. We will explore resistance to parent work and discuss how it is crucial to starting a child or adolescent practice, essential for maintaining cases and vital to having a mutually enhancing termination.

This program is made possible through the generous gift of The Julia and Thomas Saltz Fund to the Baltimore Washington Institute for Psychoanalysis.

Developmental Challenges, Childhood to Adulthood

Friday, March 9, 7:30 p.m.

TSOTSI (2006)  Rated R—South Africa
Director: Gavin Hood
Discussant: Silvia Bell, Ph.D.

A ruthless thug (Tsotsi) shoots a woman as she desperately tries to impede him from stealing her car. He drives off and discovers the woman’s cherished infant still in the back seat. Drawn to this beloved vulnerable baby from whom he cannot be parted, Tsotsi begins a transformational journey into his own past that reawakens his humanity. As if the healthy baby provides him with reassurance about his own infancy, Tsotsi revisits his traumatic childhood and becomes witness to the damaging impact of his early experience. Violence gives way to compassion as he reconnects with his capacity to love. The movie won an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

 

Friday, March 16, 7:30 p.m.

THE MAN WHO LOVED WOMEN (1977)  Not Rated—France
Director: Francois Truffaut
Discussant: Leon Levin, M.D.

The age-old dances of seduction and being seduced are sharply observed with wit and humor in Truffaut’s classic New Wave film. Bertrand, a bachelor in his early forties, writes his memoir evoking the many variations of the dance which he has lived out with the various women in his life. What fuels this pattern of flitting like a butterfly from one woman to the next? Is this a dance of joy, or something else? Bertrand is a complex self-reflective person whom we can recognize as very human and yet, at the same time, driven.


Friday, March 23, 7:30 p.m.

MEN OF HONOR (2000)   Rated R—USA
Director: George Tillman, Jr.
Discussant: Marilyn Martin, M.D.

Racism and a promise made to his father propel Carl Brashear to battle forward in this true story about the Navy’s first black Master Diver. Billy Sunday, the racist alcoholic diving instructor, who is determined to destroy Brashear, discovers that his own salvation is linked to that of his nemesis. Internalized rage, so often the downfall of recipients of injustice, is successfully channeled by both men. Viewers may ask themselves, isn’t there a point where the price for a dream is too much?

Friday, March 30, 7:30 p.m.

THE RETURN (2003)   Not Rated—Russia
Director: Andrei Zvyagintsev
Discussant: Noreen Honeycutt, Ph.D.

In this gripping Russian drama, two teenage brothers face the return of the father who had abandoned the family twelve years before. The boys’ internal management of the loss of their father and their accompanying fantasies about him emerge as they relate to the real man. During a week of father/son vacation,” the boys are challenged to deal with powerful conflicts provoked by the father’s abusive behavior. Their adolescent struggle to choose between boyhood and manhood and between identification and self-preservation, come to a head in a harsh and violent confrontation. The film has won numerous awards, including five at the Venice Film Festival.

Mind, Matter and Imagination:

Transformation in the Creative Arts

 

“Indian Summer” by Walter Bartman
 

Saturday, October 7, 2006


Artistic creation is a symbolic representation of experience between inner reality and the external world, not only for the artist, but for the audience as well. In creating an object of art, be it visual, musical, performance, or written, the artist relies on inner experiences such as memories, dreams, fantasies, as well as perceptions and reactions to the external environment. The universal appeal and timelessness of the art will depend on the degree of resonance with the inner worlds of those who experience it.

Continuing Education Accreditation

*We are happy to continue our tradition of “no charge” attendance.  However, due to increased administrative costs and demands associated with the continuing education credits, we will be charging $10.00 per unit for all of our programs.  That would put the cost of CEUs and CMEs at $15.00 for the 1.5 hours of each Case Conference. Because we have the good fortune of beginning a new partnership with the Greater Washington Society for Clinical Social Work, we will rely on their ability to offer Social Workers CEUs free of charge. If you would like to attend and do not need or choose to receive CEUs, then the conference will continue to be free of charge.  If you do wish to receive a CEU/CME certificate, and are not a dues-paying member of the Baltimore Washington Center for Psychoanalysis, please bring cash or make your check payable to the Baltimore Washington Institute for Psychoanalysis.

The Baltimore Washington Institute for Psychoanalysis, Inc., is recognized by the Maryland Board of Examiners of Psychologists as a sponsor of continuing education activities.  The Institute is recognized by the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners as a sponsor of continuing education activities.  1.5 credit hours are offered for each conference.

The Clinical Case Conference has been certified by the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners as a provider of continuing education units (CEUs). The Board designates each conference in this series for 1.5 hours in Category 1 for Social Workers.

Application is being made to the National Board of Certified Counselors for authorization to provide CEUs for this activity, designating each conference in this series for 1.5 contact hours for NBCC, and 1.5 hours in Category 1 for Maryland Professional Counselors, pending approval from the respective boards.
