Refreshments and conversation at 9:00 PM following the lecture

Like infants and parents, patients and therapists affect one another in multiple pathways, in very short time intervals as well as over hours, weeks, months and years.
This presentation will look at how very close attention to brief moments of analytic interaction—seconds to minutes--can lead to new insight about deep, emotionallyladen patterns of relating. These interactions can be upsetting and deadening, enlivening and transformative. But even those that seem “just routine” can disclose much meaning: More often than we realize, ordinary "technical" choices reflect our participation in enactments that can easily go unnoticed. Relational and object relations theories, infant observation research, traditional Freudian concepts will be taken up, and video of infant-parent interaction will be offered.

Info: Saturday registration is limited to 25 participants.Stephen Seligman, DMH, in conversation with case presentation from Laura Mackall, LCSW

What we think of as "clinical decisions"—whether routine, pressured, or uncertain-- may also be decisions about which of the potential characters in the patient's internal worlds are about to be played out. That is, that transference-countertransference processes are present in most clinical activity, even when what’s going on seems
ordinary. A case presentation will highlight how analysts and patients engage in these ongoing enactive processes in very brief time frames of seconds to minutes. This seminar will apply and elaborate the themes of the Friday evening lecture on microenactments and the internal world
