Sometimes, unconscious sadistic and self-defeating forces can create a sinkhole in treatment with a nexus of common suffering in therapist and patient, often manifest as therapist inactivity and non-engagement.
Therapists can get “stuck” for a number of reasons, but when sessions lose vitality more often than not, some form of renewal is called for.
The Intensive Dynamic psychotherapy of Habib Davanloo can provide such a renewal with its classical psychoanalytic base melded to affective intensity and attachment psychology.
This three-hour course looks at the psychodynamics of stuck places from a perspective of devitalization in transference and counter-transference. An extended videotape vignette will be used; participants are encouraged to discuss their own cases.
Course Objectives:
• Apply teachings of Frederickson, Racker, Bion, and Davanloo to the untangling of “stuck places” in clinical practice
• Analyze the contemporary applicability of delineating superego pathology in re-engagement of “stuck” therapy
• Utilize specific techniques of emotional engagement to self-destructive patient/client resistances.
