SUMMARY:ELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD  and DANIEL JOSÉ GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD with DISCUSSANT: PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:DISTURBING THE SLEEP OF THE WORLD: PSYCHOANALYSIS\, SOCIAL AWAKENING & RADICAL POLITICS\nThe Colloquium Series 2023-2024\, presented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nThe Fundamental Radicalism of  Psychoanalysis from Freud to Fanon\nELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD \nand DANIEL JOSÉ GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD\nDISCUSSANT: PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\n\nAbout Dr. Danto’s Presentation: Class\, Conscious and Unconscious\n“In your private political opinions you might be a Bolshevist\,” Ernest Jones wrote to Sigmund Freud in 1926\, “but you would not help the spread of Y to announce it.” Freud’s modernist views on social justice and the right to mental health care had triggered Jones’s discomfort. Today\, despite ample evidence that the free psychoanalytic clinics of Europe in the 1920s and 30s did enact Freud’s views\, Jones’ concerns continue to underlie the cultural tenacity of his class-based narrative.\n  \nAbout Dr. Gaztambide’s Presentation: Racial Capitalism as Psychoanalysis’ Unconscious Underside: Clinical Lessons from Freud\, Du Bois\, and Fanon\nCedric Robinson coined the term “racial capitalism” to underscore the racial underpinnings of capitalism today\, drawing on the insights of the Black Radical Tradition before and after W.E.B. Du Bois’ groundbreaking work. Little known is Du Bois’ engagement with psychoanalysis\, and how his and Freud’s theorizing on race and class present an undertheorized parallelism on how the unconscious is formed within social location. This presentation will draw on the “missed encounter” between psychoanalysis and the Black Radical Tradition encapsulated in Frantz Fanon’s work\, revealing to us not only a theory of race and class\, but its application in contemporary clinical practice.\n  \nABOUT ELIZABETH ANN DANTO\, PhD\nElizabeth Ann Danto is professor emeritus\, Hunter College of the City University of New York. Dr. Danto is a writer and international lecturer on the history of psychoanalysis as a marker of urban culture. Her book Freud’s Free Clinics – Psychoanalysis & Social Justice\, 1918-1938 (Columbia University Press)\, won the Gradiva Award and the Goethe Prize. Other books include Historical Research (Oxford University Press) and the co-edited Freud/Tiffany – Anna Freud\, Dorothy Tiffany Burlingham and the ‘Best Possible School'” (Routledge – History of Psychoanalysis series).\nABOUT DANIEL GAZTAMBIDE\, PsyD\nDaniel José Gaztambide\, PsyD\, is assistant professor of clinical practice in the Department of Psychology at the New School for Social Research\, where he also directs the Frantz Fanon Lab for Intersectional Psychology. He is the author of the book A People’s History of Psychoanalysis: From Freud to Liberation Psychology. Dr. Gaztambide is in analytic training at the NYU Post-Doctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis\, and is a member of the Puerto Rican Poetry Troupe\, the Titere Poets.\nABOUT PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\nPascal Sauvayre is faculty and training analyst at the William Alanson White Institute. He studies\, teaches\, and writes at the intersection of psychoanalysis and philosophy. A recent project includes editing\, with Roger Frie\, the book entitled ‘Culture\, Politics\, and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis’\, published at Routledge.  He has a private practice in New York City.

SUMMARY:Testimonies During Wartime: Lessons from Listeing to Extremity - A Ukrainian lecture
DESCRIPTION:Testimonies During Wartime: Lessons from Listening to Extremity\nСвідчення під час війни:  уроки вислуховування екстремального\nStevan Weine\, MD\npresented in Ukrainian by the Online Interpersonal Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program for Mental Health Professionals from Ukraine\nABOUT THE TALK\nTestimony rests on a therapeutic ambition: If I tell my story\, I may remake not only myself\, but others too and perhaps even the larger public. Testimony is an imperfect balancing of the individual and the social\, the local and the universal\, the private and the public\, but it just might be good enough. Testimony’s seeming ability to “fuse” or create a shortcut between the private and public worlds\, combined with its considerable redemptive promise\, have given it a unique therapeutic and social power.  We will consider lessons from the testimonies of survivors of war and political violence in the 20th century\, including from Bosnia-Herzogovina\, and how they might inform the giving and receiving of testimonies involving those living through the war in Ukraine.\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nStevan Weine\, MD\, is Professor of Psychiatry at the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois Chicago\, where he is also Director of Global Medicine and Director of the Center for Global Health. For 30 years he has been conducting research both with refugees and migrants in the U.S. and in post-conflict countries\, focused on mental health\, health\, and violence prevention. This work has resulted in more than 130 publications and three books: When History is a Nightmare: Lives and Memories of Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina (1999); Testimony and Catastrophe: Narrating the Traumas of Political Violence (2006)\, and;  Best Minds: How Allen Ginsberg Made Revolutionary Poetry from Madness (2023) .\nПро лекцію\nСвідчення базується на терапевтичних амбіціях: якщо я розповім свою історію\, я можу переробити не лише себе\, але й інших і\, можливо\, навіть широку громадськість. Свідчення — це недосконалий\, але наскільки можливо хороший баланс між індивідуальним і суспільним\, локальним і універсальним\, приватним і публічним. Очевидна здатність Свідчення «поєднувати»\, або створювати зв’язок між приватним і публічним світом\, разом з його значущою обіцянкою викуплення\, надала йому унікальної терапевтичної та соціальної сили. Ми розглянемо уроки зі свідчень людей\, які пережили війну та політичне насильство у 20-му столітті\, в тому числі з Боснії та Герцоговини\, і те\, як вони можуть вплинути на надання та отримання свідчень за участю тих\, хто пережив війну в Україні.\nПро спікера\nСтівен Вайн\, доктор медичних наук\, є професором психіатрії в Медичному коледжі Іллінойського університету в Чикаго\, де він також є директором з глобальної медицини та директором Центру глобального здоров’я. Протягом 30 років він проводить дослідження з біженцями та мігрантами як в США\, так і в постконфліктних країнах\, зосереджуючись на фізичному і психічному здоров’ї та запобіганні насильству. Результатом цієї роботи стало понад 130 публікацій і три книги: When History is a Nightmare: Lives and Memories of Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia-Herzegovina (1999); Testimony and Catastrophe: Narrating the Traumas of Political Violence (2006)\, and;  Best Minds: How Allen Ginsberg Made Revolutionary Poetry from Madness (2023).

SUMMARY:LGBTQ STUDY GROUP with Jack Drescher\, MD
DESCRIPTION:Description: The history of psychoanalytic theorizing about homosexuality is more than a century old and has undergone numerous revisions. Early on\, psychoanalytic attitudes toward homosexuality could be reasonably characterized as hostile. The presentation begins with Freud’s early views on homosexuality within the cultural context of his times. It then reviews later pathologizing psychoanalytic theories as well as the research of sexologists which ultimately led to the 1973 decision of the American Psychiatric Association to remove homosexuality from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM).  Today the contributions of openly lesbian and gay analysts have shifted psychoanalytic focus on homosexuality from discussions of “why gay?” to the more clinically relevant question of “how gay?” This presentation shows how the history of psychoanalytic attitudes toward homosexuality illustrates how psychological theories cannot be divorced from the political\, cultural\, and personal contexts in which they are formulated.

SUMMARY:Anastasios Gaitanidis\, PhD\, Hearing Other Voices: The Ear as the Eye  of Invisible Suffering
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Study Group of the Psychotherapy Service for People in the Arts\npresents\nAnastasios Gaitanidis\, PhD\nHearing Other Voices: The Ear as the Eye\nof Invisible Suffering\nAttend in person at the Institute Library at 20 West 74th Street or attend online via zoom at: https://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nIn this presentation\, Dr. Gaitanidis proposes an aesthetics of alterity that critiques an attitude which privileges orderly sensibilities that blind us to the horrors of social violence and exclusion. Instead\, he contends\, psychoanalysis must foster ethical receptivity to hearing dissonant cries and marginalized voices excluded by current ideologies.\nThis radical openness requires relinquishing our consulting room’s sensuous insulation and permits marginalized voices to permeate the analytic space. This infiltrative hearing counters the traditional psychoanalytic tendency to isolate and insulate. It foregrounds suffering that is rendered invisible\, dismantling ideological barriers. Dr. Gaitanidis will illuminate this radical aesthetic attitude through art’s power to express the unspeakable. He profoundly draws on the definition of art as  “intentionless intention”; hovering in the gap between meaning and meaninglessness\, art conveys unbearable affect beyond language.\nCrucially\, he argues this gap is also where analysis unfolds. The analyst must tune into the timbre and rhythm of experience\, not just interpret meaning. This attunement reclaims damaged aliveness that trauma forecloses.  Art and analysis alike embrace life’s entirety from horror to love. Accepting our painful brokenness through such attunement is vital for becoming fully alive. By presenting a number of clinical vignettes relevant to this topic\, he would like to chart a vision of aesthetics awakened to exclusion and suffering. His hope is that this radical aesthetics will infuse sealed spaces with transformative solidarity.\nDr. Anastasios Gaitanidis is a relational psychoanalyst in private practice working in London\, UK. In addition to his clinical work as a psychoanalyst\, he has held appointments as a senior lecturer and director of studies and provided clinical and research supervision to psychoanalysts\, psychotherapists and counseling psychologists at the SITE for Contemporary Psychoanalysis\, Regent’s University London and University of Roehampton. He currently holds the position of  Visiting Professor for the professional doctorate in counseling psychology at Regent’s University London.  Dr. Gaitanidis is also the Theory Editor of the European Journal of Psychotherapy and Counselling (EJPC) and he has authored and published a substantial body of academic work including journal articles and edited books over the years\, with a recent book\, The Sublime in Everyday Life.\nPlease RSVP to attend this event\, either in person or virtually.

SUMMARY:ALEXANDER STILLE\, MS\, RICHARD WAUGAMAN\, MD with Discussant Roger Frie\, PhD\, PsyD
DESCRIPTION:DISTURBING THE SLEEP OF THE WORLD: PSYCHOANALYSIS\, SOCIAL AWAKENING & RADICAL POLITICS\, the 2023-2024 Colloquium series\nThe Colloquium Series 2023-2024\, presented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nUtopian Dreams\, the Promise & the Peril: From the Sullivanians to Chestnut Lodge and Sheppard Pratt\nALEXANDER STILLE\, MS\nRICHARD WAUGAMAN\, MD \nDISCUSSANT: ROGER FRIE\, PhD\, PsyD\n  \nABOUT ALEXANDER STILLE’S TALK\nThe Sullivan Institute was something of a scandal in New York’s psychoanalytic circles: a polygamous community in which therapists and patients lived together in large group apartments on the Upper West Side. It all came apart in the late 1980’s amid lawsuits and salacious revelations of widespread therapeutic abuse which resulted in several of its leading therapists losing their professional licenses.\nHowever\, it is worth considering this black sheep’s place in the family album of New York’s psychoanalytic institutes. Its founders  were\, in fact\, a breakaway faction from the William Alanson White Institute even if Sullivan had been dead for several years when they started an institute in his name in 1957. They were political radicals who believed that psychoanalysis had great revolutionary potential but that mainstream psychiatry had chosen to be a pillar of the established order. In their view\, Sullivan’s ideas – the notion that people grew from contact with other people; that they continued growing in adulthood – offered\, in their view\, an alternative. Sullivan had achieved notable results treating patients with schizophrenia with group community living. Why not give this opportunity to all patients who might grow by living with each other?  Sullivan had identified the “self-system” as the psyche’s way of internalizing and maintaining an unhappy status quo but Pearce and Newton felt that Sullivan had not followed through on what they saw as the logical implications of Sullivan’s ideas: that the family\, as the keeper of the self-system\, needed to be abandoned; that monogamous marriage\, another pillar of the established order\, needed to be knocked down. In the broader political and social context in the mid-1950’s\, they saw personal liberation as a fundamental aspect of wider social revolution. They believed that psychoanalysis involved putting people in touch with the “underground” of their instinctual life\, which had been buried by the condition of family and society and that the therapist was essentially the ally of “guerilla fighter” that lived inside of each of us and yearned for real growth and experience. Clearly\, these metaphors draw on the political context of the times — the Communist revolutions in China\, Algeria and Cuba. As they wrote in “Conditions of Human Growth\,” “Successful analysis involves becoming accustomed to revolution.” As one former therapist in the group said: “We asked all the right questions and got all the wrong answers.”\n  \nABOUT ALEXANDER STILLE\, MS\nAlexander Stille is the author of six books of nonfiction including Benevolence and Betrayal: Five Italian-Jewish Families Under Fascism; Excellent Cadavers: The Mafia and the Death of the First Italian Republic; The Future of the Past; The Sack of Rome\, about Silvio Berlusconi; a family memoir\, The Force of Things: A Marriage in War and Peace. HIs latest is The Sullivanians: Sex\, Psychotherapy and the Wild Life of an American Commune. He has written for a wide range of publications including The New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, The New York Review of Books\, The New York Times\, The New York Times Magazine. He has also been since 2004 a professor of international journalism at the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University.\nABOUT RICHARD WAUGAMAN\, MD\nRichard M. Waugaman\, M.D. is Clinical Professor of Psychiatry\, and  Training and Supervising Analyst\, Emeritus at the Washington Psychoanalytic Institute. Half of his 200-plus publications are on Shake-speare. His two ebooks are Newly Discovered works by “William Shake-Speare\,” a.k.a. Edward de Vere and It’s Time to Re-Vere the Works of “William Shake-Speare”: A Psychoanalyst Reads the Works of Edward de Vere\, Earl of Oxford. He has two websites: http://www.oxfreudian.com; and http://explore.georgetown.edu/people/waugamar/. The full texts of his non-clinical publications are accessible on the latter website.\nABOUT ROGER FRIE\, PhD\, PsyD\nRoger Frie is 2023-2024 Visiting Scholar in Sociology at the CUNY Graduate Center in New York. He is a graduate and faculty member of the William Alanson White Institute\, Professor of Education at Simon Fraser University\, and Affiliate Professor of Psychiatry at University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He was Visiting Professor of Psychoanalysis at Kyoto University in 2022 and DAAD Visiting Professor in Berlin in 2021. He writes and lectures widely on the themes of historical trauma\, memory and social responsibility.

SUMMARY:WILLIAM CORNELL\, ROGER FRIE\, LYNNE JACOBS\, NANCY WINTERS
DESCRIPTION:WILLIAM CORNELL\, MA\,\nROGER FRIE\, PhD\, PsyD\,\nLYNNE JACOBS\, PhD\nNANCY WINTERS\, MD\, FIPA\nwith MODERATORS DORIS BROTHERS\, PhD and JON SLETVOLD\, PsyD\nWhat is Embodiment in Clinical Practice?\nSaturday\, November 18th from 12Noon to 2:00PM/Eastern time\nA multi-view discussion followed by audience interaction. Presented in collaboration with The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of  Embodiment.\n2 CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS ARE AVAILABLE.  For CE credit information\, click here. \nABOUT THIS EVENT\nHumans are fundamentally embodied. While clinicians starting with Freud have either explicitly or implicitly endorsed this idea\, there is no agreement about just what embodiment means in clinical practice. There is much to be learned from the many perspectives on embodiment that have recently been advanced. This event brings together several clinicians who hold a variety of different views on the subject. The four speakers will answer questions posed by two Moderators\, who are also Co-Directors of the Wilheim Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment. After they engage in dialogue\, members of the online audience will be invited to join the discussion. \nABOUT THE WILHELM REICH CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF EMBODIMENT\nInspired by the pioneering work of Wilhelm Reich and encouraged by the recent surge of interest in embodiment among clinicians\, co-Directors Drs. Doris Brothers and Jon Sletvold have founded the Center. With it\, they are introducing an online forum for dialogues about the ways in which embodiment affects the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. \nA wide range of approaches to embodiment have emerged in the last two decades that have led them to believe that a “turn toward embodiment” is underway. In the interest of furthering this turn they are offering a format that differs from the usual at psychoanalytic meetings. Rather than featuring a paper presenting a specific theorist or clinician followed by discussions\, they intend that each event will center around a specific topic. Speakers from around the world\, each of whom employs a different perspective on embodiment\, will be invited to participate in a roundtable conversation of the topic. Afterward\, online participants will be encouraged to join the conversation. \nLearn more about The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment\nABOUT THE SPEAKERS\nWILLIAM CORNELL\, MA\, maintains an independent private practice of psychotherapy and consultation in Pittsburgh\, PA.  He teaches internationally with a primary focus on working with somatic processes and sexuality.  He is a founding faculty member of the recently inaugurated Western Pennsylvania Community for Psychoanalytic Therapies and is the author of Explorations in Transactional Analysis: The Meech Lake Papers\, Somatic Experience in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy: In the expressive language of the living\, Self-Examination in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy: Countertransference and subjectivity in clinical practice\, At the Interface of Transactional Analysis\, Psychoanalysis\, and Body Psychotherapy: Theoretical and clinical perspectives\, and Une Vie Pour Etre Soi.  He is a co-author and editor of Into TA: A comprehensive textbook\, which have been translated into several languages.  Bill has published numerous articles and book chapters\, many of which have been translated into French\, Italian\, German\, Portuguese\, and Chinese.  Bill edited and introduced books by James T.

SUMMARY:LGBTQ Study Group with Mark J. Blechner\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Description: Bertha Pappenheim was the real name of the first psychoanalytic patient\, Anna O.  Did she experience same-sex desire?  Was she a lesbian?  Was she a victim of undue pressures from a heteronormative society? I will explore these questions\, drawing on her letters\, her dream\, and other facts of her life after her treatment by Breuer.  We will also consider how these issues affected other pivotal psychoanalysts\, including Harry Stack Sullivan and Anna Freud. \n  \nMark J. Blechner\, Ph.D. is Training and Supervising Analyst at the William Alanson White Institute and Clinical Supervisor and Adjunct Professor\, New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis.  He has published four books: The Mindbrain and Dreams: Explorations of Dreaming\, Thinking\, and Artistic Creation (2018)\, Sex Changes: Transformations in Society and Psychoanalysis (2009)\, The Dream Frontier (2001)\, and Hope and Mortality: Psychodynamic Approaches to AIDS and HIV (1997). Dr. Blechner was the founder and director of the HIV Clinical Service at the White Institute.

SUMMARY:Intimate\, Everyday Beauty before the Fall: Europe 1934\, A Window Back in Time presented by the Artist Group
DESCRIPTION:Intimate\, Everyday Beauty before the Fall: \nEurope 1934\, A Window Back in Time\nDan Scheuer\, Jonathan Scheuer\, and Charles Seton\n\nIntroduction and Discussant:  Jenny Kaufmann\, Ph.D.\nPresented by the Artist Study Group of The Psychotherapy Service for People in the Arts\nThursday\, December 7th from 1:30-3:00PM\nIn person at the Institute\, in the Library\, at 20 West 74th Street (between Columbus & Central Park West)\nor online via Zoom: https://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\nWe will discuss Richard H Scheuer’s compelling\, candid photographs\, taken in Europe pre-World War II. The restored images are presented as a testament to Scheuer’s talent as a visual storyteller and his insight as a 17-year-old observer. Through an evocative slide show of everyday life in the Jewish Quarter of Warsaw\, the Moscow State Yiddish Theatre\, and scenes of Sarajevo\, among others\, his visuals convey a combination of intimacy and connection with his subjects. In sharing these moments in time\, Dan Scheuer has said\, ”  I can’t bring my Dad back to show him what he accomplished\, but this is the next best thing.”\nAs a study group\, we have the opportunity to explore our own associations\, memories\, feelings and thoughts as witnesses to creative expression through these contextualized visuals. In exploring the implicit\, we will discuss the role visual images play in clinical practice.  Does exposure to new observations magnify the possibility of seeing what is hidden? Or private? And what was not there before?\n\nWe encourage any who are able to attend this meeting in person\, so that they may see the actual portfolio of large exhibition prints for themselves\,  on display in the Institute’s Library for the afternoon.\n  \nDan Scheuer is a photographer and educator based in New Rochelle\, NY. He received an MFA degree in Photography from Pratt Institute  and taught there for 18 years. Since retiring from Pratt he has continued to photograph and produce photography related projects.\n Jonathan Scheuer\, a film and music producer said\, “The poignancy and pain of Warsaw is a given. But it’s important to see the whole trip\, the beauty of the photography as art\, how the life of one person can be apprehended in a single photograph.”\nCharles Seton\, photographer (his photographs appear on the latest Grateful Dead album)\, educator\, archivist and photo restoration specialist\, has been the Scheuer family photographer for over 40 years and has spent the last six years restoring these photographs and preparing them for exhibition.\nJenny Kahn Kaufmann\, Director of Curriculum at WAWI\, teaches classes on Comparative Conceptualizations and Treatment Approaches in Working with Narcissistic Patients\, Transference andCountertransference and The Psychoanalytic Contribution of Jay Greenberg: A Radical “Middle-of-the-Road” Perspective.  She is a lifetime friend of Dan and the Scheuer family.\nYou must RSVP to attend.
