SUMMARY:Center for Public Mental Health presents Kenneth Barish
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Public Mental Health \nInvites You to \nWhy We Disagree: \nAnd How Can We Come Closer Together \nby \nKenneth Barish\, PhD \npresented via Zoom \nTUESDAY\, FEBRUARY 7\, 2023 \n11:45AM-1:00PM/Eastern \n  \nAbout the talk: \nRespectful and constructive dialogue is vanishing from American political life. There is perhaps no more urgent question for American society today than how we can listen and talk with each other constructively\, with less hostility and contempt. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Barish will offer answers to three questions: (1) What is the essence of conservative and liberal political opinions? (2) Why do we become conservative or liberal? (3) How can we talk together in a more productive way? He will present an understanding of liberal and conservative political ideologies\, drawing not only from politics but also from liberalism and conservatism in other spheres of life – in science\, religion\, and language. \nDr. Barish will then describe principles of constructive dialogue and reasoned debate among people who disagree. He will show how opposing groups\, motivated and inspired by different concerns\, may still share common goals; how we can listen and talk with each other with greater charity and humility; how extremism can be avoided; how ideology can be changed into pragmatism; and\, when we continue to disagree\, when we firmly believe that our opponents are wrong\, how we can discuss our differences with at least a modicum of understanding and respect. \nKenneth Barish\, PhD\, is on the faculty of the William Alanson White Institute Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy Training Program and the Westchester Center for the Study of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. He is also Clinical Professor of Psychology at Weill Medical College\, Cornell University and Visiting Professor\, Tongji Medical College\, Huazhong University of Science and Technology\, in Wuhan\, China. \nKen is the author of How To Be A Better Child Therapist: An Integrative Model for Therapeutic Change (W. W. Norton\, 2018) and Pride and Joy: A Guide to Understanding Your Child’s Emotions and Solving Family Problems (Oxford University Press\, 2012). Pride and Joy is winner of the 2013 International Book Award and the 2013 Eric Hoffer Book Award. \nIn addition to his teaching and clinical practice\, Ken plays jazz trumpet.

SUMMARY:The Embodied Psychoanalyst: Focusing Within Colloquium 2022-2023 series
DESCRIPTION:No Body\, Never Mind: Conceptions\, Preconceptions\, and Misconceptions about Body-Mind\nGURMEET KANWAL\, MD\nDiscussant ROGER FRIE\, PsyD\n  \nFriday\, February 10th from 8:00-9:30PM/Eastern\nAll events in this webinar series are live-streamed and take place in Eastern Daylight or Eastern Standard time.\nABOUT THIS EVENING’S TALK \nPsychoanalytic inquiry of the body started before psychoanalysis\, with Charcot. In that sense\, psychosomatics is the progenitor of psychoanalysis. Freud then shifted his focus more and more to the intra-psychic. Is psychoanalysis suffering from the Streetlight Effect? Conceptions of Body and Mind have changed in Western cultures over time\, and the speed of that change has only been accelerating. The Body is held differently in Mind\, and Mind is constructed differently in Body\, in different cultures. Our culturally determined Mind constructs a view of our Body while remaining ignorant\, selectively inattentive\, or unconscious of many realities of our Body. How can we understand the culturally/politically/historically determined relational space between Body and Mind? How might a better understanding of Body\, and its relationship to Mind contribute to psychoanalytic work? In this talk Dr. Kanwal will explore some disparate but interconnected ideas about the Body-Mind Complex. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nGurmeet S. Kanwal\, MD\, is Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Medical College of Cornell University\, and Supervising Psychoanalyst at the William Alanson White Institute. He is a past President of the William Alanson White Psychoanalytic Society and an Editorial Board Member and Fellow of the College of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis\, and Editorial Board Member of Psychoanalytic Discourse.
