More Together, More Alone: Part 2In last year’s highly-rated workshop, More Together, More Alone: Clinical & Cultural Perspectives on the Technological Age, Kate Schechter, PhD, and Bonnie Litowitz, PhD, provided a psychodynamic perspective on the developmental and cultural changes brought about by social networking. The presenters wove together ideas from psychoanalytic theory, anthropology and philosophy to help us understand how new technologies are influencing interpersonal and intrapsychic experience.
Their ideas were so thought provoking, participants wanted to continue the conversation. In Part 2, Dr. Schechter will engage the group in working through a series of complicated clinical situations that raise issues of technique, ethics and values in relation to electronic communication, both between therapist and client, and in the electronic lives of our clients. The workshop will explore the impact of social networking and other technologies on contemporary understandings of self, relationship, and identity from a clinical perspective. Register now!

The Analytical Relationship and the Dialogue of Unconscious: A Clinical WorkshopSome clients evoke a range of powerful responses in the therapist – from falling asleep or becoming bored in session to dreaming or worrying about them at night. These experiences are often at the heart of enactments in psychodynamic work and provide special opportunities for understanding the ways in which the unconscious life of patient and analyst emerge, and for ultimately deepening the work. This workshop will explore the nature of the psychodynamic relationship by considering the relationship as “a dialogue of unconscious.” We will try to deepen our grasp of unconscious dimensions of relationships by exploring difficult therapeutic moments using case examples. Participants will have the opportunity to share reactions and clinical process from their own practices with Dr. Bass and within smaller break-out groups. Register now!
