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

SUMMARY:LGBTQ Study Group - LEXI KOREN
DESCRIPTION:LEXI KOREN \n\n\nThe Global Assault on Youth Gender-Affirming Care: \nHow Opponents Hijacked the Narrative \n\nWednesday\, December 11\, 2024 \n8:30 – 10:00 PM (EST) \n\nOn Zoom only\, RSVP below  \nhttps://wawi.wufoo.com/forms/s1v361i7149pvzz/ \n\n  \nDescription: Over the past five years there has been an unprecedented assault on gender-affirming care for youth across the United States\, Canada\,Western Europe\, and Australia. This talk focuses on the international network of “Gender critical” feminists\, anti-affirming doctors and psychologists\, and the Christian right which have successfully hijacked the narrative around these treatments. It also focuses on how mainstream media in the US and abroad have bought into these narratives and how their coverage has been used to restrict care for this population. \n  \nSpeaker: Lexi Koren has worked in electoral politics and advocacy for over 14 years. She began researching and writing about the assault on youth gender-affirming care in 2022 after seeing the flood of disinformation on the topic and lack of adequate response. She published one of the first articles in the US that interviewed trans people in Sweden and Finland to understand why their countries were restricting trans health care. She writes media criticism of youth gender-affirming care coverage for FAIR\, and her recent piece on the Cass Review was one of the outlet’s top 10 articles of the year. She presented at the US Professional Association for Transgender Health (USPATH) conference in 2023 on the spread of disinformation about adolescent gender affirming care. \n  \n\n\nPlease note: \n\n  \n\nRegistrants will receive the Zoom link to attend this meeting via email from \nThe William Alanson White Institute with subject line: \n“LGBTQ Study Group 2024-2025”. \nLGBTQ Study Group events are not recorded. \nWe are not able to provide CE credits at this time. \nFor inquiries regarding The LGBTQ Study Group please contact the chair\, \nWilla N.

SUMMARY:LGBTQ Study Group - ADAM GAUBINGER\, LCSW
DESCRIPTION:LGBTQ Study Group of the William Alanson White Institute invites you \nto a candidate case presentation by: \n  \nADAM GAUBINGER\, LCSW \nCompeting Regimes of Truth and the Construction of an “I”: \nPsychoanalysis\, Digital Media\, and Biomedicine in the Case of Jo \n  \nWednesday\, January 8\, 2025 \n8:30 – 10:00 PM (EST) \n\n\n\n\n\n on Zoom only\, RSVP below  \nhttps://wawi.wufoo.com/forms/s1v361i7149pvzz/\n\n\n\n\n  \nPlease Note: Because this will be a presentation of case material\, attendance is limited to Division 1 and CAPTP candidates (current and graduates) and current Online IPPP and Online TOPP students. Please join the meeting 5 minutes before scheduled start time so as not to delay the meeting. The “waiting room” will be open beforehand \nDescription: This presentation explores the case of Jo\, a non-binary trans masculine person with chronic illnesses. It will think about the discordant discourses of selfhood and ways of relating to bodily experiences that Jo draws on as they build a more stable\, true feeling “I”: those in their family and early relationships; those from their engagement with the medical system; and those found in trans and disability communities on social media. These different ways of knowing seem to assist in Jo’s quest to live a survivable life and yet\, at other times\, constrain and defend against a more interpersonal\, psychoanalytic way of experiencing and knowing the self.  \n  \nAdam Gaubinger\, LCSW\, is a clinical social worker in private practice\, where he sees adults and teenagers. He graduated from Smith College School for Social Work in 2017 and is a second-year psychoanalytic candidate at the William Alanson White Institute. His writing draws from queer critique and psychoanalysis to think about technology\, desire\, and processes of subject formation and disintegration.  \n\n\n\nPlease note: \n– Registrants will receive the Zoom link to attend this meeting via email from \nThe William Alanson White Institute with subject line: \n“LGBTQ Study Group 2024-2025”. \n– LGBTQ Study Group events are not recorded. \n– We are not able to provide CE credits at this time.\n\n\n\nFor inquiries regarding The LGBTQ Study Group please contact the chair\, \nWilla N.

SUMMARY:Nancy Kulish\, PhD\, A Case of Infantile Trauma and the Question of Resilience
DESCRIPTION:The Colloquium Series of 2024-2025\nPsychoanalytic Synthesis and Innovation in Times of Upheaval\npresented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nNANCY KULISH\, PhD\nA CASE OF INFANTILE TRAUMA AND THE QUESTION OF RESILIENCE \nFRIDAY\, JANUARY 24th\, 2025 from 7:30-9:30pm\nAlice Sohn\, PhD\, Moderator\nPresented in person\, on location at the Institute\n20 West 74th Street (between Central Park West & Columbus Avenue)\nSeating for this and all Colloquium events are on a first come\, first serve basis.\n\nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nThe author presents a case of early infantile trauma. Experiences of severe neglect during infancy came to life in this woman’s analysis through dramatic bodily experiences on the couch. The case touches upon technical and theoretical questions about the recovery and reconstruction of early\, non-verbal memories and how they arise within the transference/countertransference. Of particular interest are questions that the case raises about psychoanalytic ideas of development and resiliency in surviving early and continuing trauma\, given this woman’s high-level functioning in many areas of her life. The author draws upon Winnicott’s views on the infant’s share in “going-on-being” and argues for a more questioning approach to understanding how individuals overcome and transcend early trauma.\n1.5 CEs are available for attending this presentation. \n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nNancy Kulish\, PhD\, is Professor\, Department of Psychiatry\, Wayne State Medical School and Adjunct Professor of Psychology\, University of Detroit/Mercy. She received her psychoanalytic training at the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute where she was past president and is a Training and Supervising Analyst. Currently she is on the Editorial Boards of the Psychoanalytic Quarterly and the International Journal of Psychoanalysis and serves on the IPA Steering Committee for Working Parties. She has published and presented on topics ranging from female sexuality\, gender\, transference/countertransference\, termination\, and supervision. With Deanna Holtzman\, she is the co-author of A Story of Her Own\, The Female Oedipus Complex Reexamined and Renamed (2008)\, and co-editor of The Clinical Problem of Masochism (2014). She is in private practice in Bloomfield Hills\, Michigan.\n\nABOUT THE MODERATOR\nAlice Sohn\, PhD\, is a Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst\, and faculty at the William Alanson White Institute\, where she is also the Director of Training\, and is Book Review Editor of Contemporary Psychoanalysis. She maintains a private practice on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.\n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\n\nDiscuss how early bodily memories of infantile trauma may be expressed in the transference/countertransference in psychoanalysis\n\n\nEvaluate the factors that may contribute to resilience to early trauma.

SUMMARY:Poets\, Artists and Analysts: Insight into Action with Erica Ehrenberg
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTED BY THE ARTIST STUDY GROUP OF THE PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICE FOR PEOPLE IN THE ARTS\nPoets\, Artists and Analysts: Insight into Action\nwith Erica Ehrenberg\nThursday\, February 6\, 2025 from 1:30-3:00Pm/Eastern\nAttend in person or online as follows:\nIn person at the Institute\, 20 West 74th Street\, between CPW & Columbus Avenues\nOnline via Zoom at:\nhttps://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\nPlease be sure to RSVP to attend: fvdillon@gmail.com\n  \nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nPoet and prose writer Erica Ehrenberg started writing poetry at a young age. As she pursued a life built around this work\, she felt it to be a process of self-definition — deeply influenced by\, but also in contrast to her parents’ careers as psychoanalysts. When she decided to pursue psychoanalytic training herself\, she discovered that being an artist and being a psychoanalyst fed each other and that the deeply creative\, expressive\, and relational links between the two were fundamental to her understanding of what it means to enact internal change in any context.\nFor this presentation she will be reading poems from her manuscript in progress\, which explores intimacy\, motherhood\, and the body.  She will also present excerpts from her paper\, On Not Knowing and the Relational Location of the Self\, where she asks what it means to work as a  psychoanalyst in the “generative unknown\,” and compares the work of poets and painters like Elizabeth Bishop and Philip Guston to Freud’s concept of the life instinct and to Winnicott’s “potential space.”\nErica Ehrenberg’s poetry and prose have appeared in numerous journals including  The New York Review of Books\, The Paris Review\, BOMB Magazine\, Slate\, The New Republic\, Everyman’s Library Pocket Poet Series\, Poetry Daily\, Guernica\, The Bennington Review\, The Mississippi Review\, The Harvard Review\, The Common as well as The Paris Review Podcast. She has been a Wallace Stegner Fellow in poetry at Stanford\, and a Poetry Fellow at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown. She has taught creative writing at Stanford Continuing Studies\, New York University\, Storm King Art Center\, and Fordham University. A recent graduate of The National Institute for the Psychotherapies (NIP) psychoanalytic training program\, Erica lives in New York City\, where she is establishing a private practice\, and teaches courses on the intersection of psychoanalysis\, art\, and literature.

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
