SUMMARY:The Embodied Psychoanalyst: Focusing Within\, Colloquium Series 2022-2023
DESCRIPTION:Digging up the Body: Lucy in the Session with Pictograms\nPASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\, ORSHI HUNYADY\, PhD\, and VERA OSIPYAN\, LCSW\nFRIDAY\, MARCH 17th from 8:00-10:00PM\nPart of the live streamed webinar series. All events are held in Eastern Standard or Daylight time.\n  \nABOUT THIS PROGRAM \n‘Lucy’ was the name of an excavated skeleton; it was theorized to be the missing link between Homosapiens and their evolutionary predecessor\, the ape.  The archeological work\, one of Freud’s pivotal metaphors\, that (re)’discovered’ her\, allowed the modern human to recognize his connection to the forgotten animal in him.  In a similar vein\, we propose to devote our efforts to the archeological work to rediscover the body in psychoanalysis.  The body needs to be rediscovered because it has\, for the most part\, been forgotten and buried in our field\, in preference for the more formulated and developed linguistic media at the heart of the ‘talking cure’. But\, witness this colloquium series\, there has been a concerted effort to pull together disparate but brilliant attempts to bring it to light\, both in theory and in practice. \nWe will use the work of Petra Aulagnier\, and her concept of the pictogram\, assisted by the work of the philosopher Laszlo Tengelyi\, and his concept of the wild region of experience\, to help us theorize the missing links between the body and the psyche\, and their elusive but key presence in clinical experience. \nIt is in the terrain of ‘unformulated experience’ (to use a phrase with which many of us may be more familiar) that the archeological efforts are directed to find ‘shreds of experience’ (Tengelyi) that have remained unattended\, unformulated\, and buried.  ‘Unformulated’ should not be mistaken as undifferentiated and non-differentiable. It is as if this terrain “were an indefinite\, but very greatly abundant\, luminous switchboard; and the pattern of light which would show on the switchboard in a discrete experience is the basic prototaxic experience itself” (Sullivan).  We think that the “patterns of light” Sullivan speaks of are a way to understand Aulagnier’s “pictogram”\, something that has a proto organization\, an organization that can become a symbol\, but that cannot yet enter the realm of the symbolic (just as the common definition of pictogram has it). \nIf we take Aulagnier’s distinctions between the primal\, the primary\, and secondary process (going from the soma to the psyche) – and bring them into correspondence with Sullivan’s prototaxic\, parataxic\, syntaxic experience\, then the pictogram would be revealed as the (missing) link between the prototaxic and the parataxic.   The pictogram comes into existence in interaction with the mother; it is the infant’s first ( body) attempt at representation\, a response to the excitation engendered by the enigma of the mother’s psyche. In this sense\, at the beginning there is only the infant’s body and the mother’s psyche. The infant’s psyche – and his body as his – does not pre-exist the relationship with the mother\, it is given birth through that exchange. (This approach is different from the Bionian mother’s “pre-digesting experience” for the baby; it is closer to an interpersonal formulation). An erogenous zone becomes a ‘zone’ neither from stimulation from the inside\, nor imposed from the outside\, but emerges in the interaction.  This phenomenon\, uncanny when revealed in clinical work\, is the foundation for the elaboration of new meanings rooted in shreds of unattended experience. \nIf the fundamental psychoanalytic endeavor is framed as the inclusion of the excluded\, to attend to the unattended (Tengelyi uses the compelling phrase ‘an ethic of alterity’)\, we can then see that the attempt to refind the body is fundamentally psychoanalytic.  But\, in line with archeological digs\, there is no direct route to the body\, just as there is no direct route to the unconscious – drilling for oil it is not.  Indeed\, the intrusive and violent aspects of an oil drill would destroy the very object of our search.  The work of archeology is painstaking\, delicate\, and incremental\, and while it certainly disturbs the buried\, and while it cannot reveal the artifacts in their original state\, it respects the elusiveness of its object.  And in the same vein\, we insist that what could be referred to as ‘the opacity of the body’ must be respected\, which means any approach that claims to ‘unlock’ the mysteries of the body must be looked upon with much suspicion\, not only theoretically but also in clinical practice as well. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \nPascal Sauvayre\, PhD\, is faculty and training analyst at the William Alanson White Institute. He studies and writes at the interdisciplinary borders of psychoanalysis. A recent project is the co-edited volume\, with Roger Frie\, of Culture\, Politics\, and Race in the Makings of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis published at Routledge in 2022.  In addition to the above entitled paper to be co-presented for this event\, among his current projects are the translation of Jean Laplanche’s Problématiques V: The Tub: The Transcendence of the Transference\, to be published at The Unconscious in Translation\, editing the English translation of Tomas Casado’s Early Relational Trauma and the Development of the Self\, to be published at Routledge\, as well as work on the question of the scientific status of psychoanalysis. Dr. Sauvayre has a private practice in New York City. \nOrshi Hunyady\, PhD\, is a supervising analyst and faculty at the William Alanson White Institute. She is an Associate Editor for Contemporary Psychoanalysis\, and she studies and writes about topics that highlight the link between psychoanalysis and social-societal phenomena. She has a full-time practice in New York City. \nVera Osipyan\, LCSW\,  is originally from the Republic of Georgia. She holds a Masters Degree in Physics from the Tbilisi State University and an MSW from Hunter College School of Social Work.

Artists in general\, and photographers in particular\,  enter a liminal state when they create. From this creative state of mind\, the photographer looks in from the outside and out from within\, in the creation of their images.  Psychoanalysts work similarly in a state in tune with their own thoughts and feelings while listening to their patients. During this session our photographers will share images of their work while discussing their perspective on liminality with our psychoanalysts. \n  \nSCHEDULE & DETAILS FOR SATURDAY & SUNDAY\nSATURDAY\, APRIL 1st\, 2023\nIntroduction: Jean Petrucelli\, Ph.D. \n9:00- 9:10am \n  \nKeynote: Adam Phillips \n9:15 – 10:30am \nPsychoanalysis for Beginners \n  \nCoffee Break 10:30-10:45am \n  \nPANEL I \n10:45-12:15pm \nTransitionality\, Illusion\, and Play: Invitations and Foreclosures \nModerator: Jill Gentile\, Ph.D. \nPanelists: Sarah Schoen\, Ph.D.\, Stephen Seligman\, DMH\, Don Troise\, LCSW \nPlay is increasingly understood as an essential aspect of human development and psychotherapeutic action. Cultures can be more or less supportive of this transitional area\, with its potentials for imaginative connection with ourselves\, in relationships with others\, as well as in the broader social surround. With that as a point of departure\, these papers will take up how people do or do not find their way into this realm—in psychoanalysis\, in the world outside the consulting room\, and in the ways these locations intersect. \n  \nLUNCH 12:15-1:00pm \n  \nPANEL II \n1:00-2:30pm \nEmbodied Liminality: Betwixt and Between as we cross Thresholds \nModerator: Anton Hart\, PhD\, FABP\, FIPA \nVelleda Ceccoli\, Ph.D.; Susie Orbach\, Ph.D.; Jean Petrucelli\, Ph.D.\, FABP\, CEDS-S \nIf we think of liminality as an ambiguous\, transitional space that constitutes a form of generative embodiment\, where power and powerlessness\, separateness and communion ebb and flow with possibility\, then perhaps we can begin to question what happens when such forms of embodiment are challenged? Is it possible to re-inscribe how we engage with one another on a “bodily level?” Are we then in a better place to challenge the body as the site of difference and embodiment acts as one of the constitutive forces that shapes subjectivities? As psychoanalysts\, we can play in the liminal\, co-creating opportunities to rehearse\, shape\, and deconstruct what is embodied and experienced. However\, what happens when this space is crushed by political realities that threaten to govern and define our bodies and re-construct us through a cultural and social lens that confines possibilities and choice? \n  \nBREAK: 2:30-2:45pm \n  \nPANEL III \n2:45-4:15pm \nQueering the Gaze: Identity\, Gender\, and Sexuality \nModerator: Cynthia Chalker\, LCSW \nPanelists: Kirsten Lenz\,Ph.D.; Adrienne Harris\, Ph.D.; Mx. Mar Kidvai Padilla\, MSEd\, LMSW \nWhat are the challenges to the perception and understanding within psychoanalysis of what may appear to be a complex swirl of sexualities and gender identities? Queer moves beyond the binary to create a fresh perspective. This panel will seek to “queer” the psychoanalytic lens by deconstructing and de-centering cis-heteropatriachial constructs of identity\, gender\, and sexuality. \n  \nBREAK 4:15-4:30pm \nPANEL IV \n4:30-6:00pm \nIs This Really Happening? \nStruggling to Stay Alive While Facing Illness\, Disappearance\, and Death \nModerator: Eugenio Duarte\, Ph.D. \nPanelists: Eugenio Duarte\, Ph.D.\, Ph.D.; Ruth Livingston\, Ph.D.; Anna DeForest\, MD \nDiscussant: Susan Kolod\, Ph.D. \nThis panel will focus on the emotional and psychological conflicts faced by individuals dealing with terminal or life-altering illness. These include living somewhere between aliveness and deadness\, between old and new forms of being\, between facing and denying heart-wrenching realities. Panelists will speak to the perspectives of the various players involved–patients\, caregivers\, and doctors. How can we foster resilience in such situations? What does it take to stay alive and present to the moment? To cherish rather than squander the remaining moments? These and other questions will be taken up. \n  \nSUNDAY\, APRIL 2nd 2023\nWelcome: Dr. Jean Petrucelli \nKeynote: Claudia Rankine \n9:00-10:15am \nThe Power In Powerlessness: Or\, How Do We Live\, Knowing the Limits That Exist in Our Ability to Negotiate Change? \n  \nCoffee Break 10:15-10:30am \n  \nPANEL I \n10:30-12:00pm \nBetween Promise and Devastation: Poetic Forms in Psychoanalysis and Human Experience \nModerator: Elizabeth Halsted\, Ph.D. \nPanelists: Sandra Buechler\, Ph.D.; Forrest Hamer\, Ph.D.; Anna Vitale\, LP; Cleonie White\, Ph.D. \nPoetry uses language\, as well as rhythm and prosody in order to create new and heightened experience. Poetic forms can initiate a loss of the illusion of consensual reality. There is the possibility of upending conventional cultural norms and messages. This creates space for new individual meaning as well as opportunities to share experience in a novel form. This panel explores how psychoanalysis attunes to poetic forms\, including metaphor\, within the dyad\, and explores how such forms invite the analysand into liminal spaces where the self can be discovered and transformed. \n  \nLUNCH: 12:00-1:00pm \n  \nPANEL II \n1:00-2:30pm \nThe Intersectionality of Race and Gender \nModerator: Max Belkin\, Ph.D. \nPanelists: Rhona Kaplan\, LCSW-R\, Hannah Pocock\, LCSW\, Michelle Stephens\, Ph.D.\, Usha Tummala-Narra\, Ph.D. \nBlack feminist theory examines the intersection between different forms of oppression. This panel will discuss the ways in which the intersectional approach to understanding the interplay between race and gender that is rooted in Black feminism can enrich the clinical practice of psychoanalysis\, somatically informed psychotherapy with trauma survivors\, and group psychotherapy. \n  \nBREAK 2:30-2:45pm \n  \nPANEL III \n2:45-4:15pm \nLiving in the Liminal Space\, an AAPI Experience \nModerator: Sophia Cai \nPanelists: Karen Chuck\, JD\, LCSW-R; Milan Patel\, MD; Arun Venugopal \nAsians in America exist in a middle state; “privileged” due to proximity to whiteness and the label of “model minority\,” while simultaneously construed as “foreign” and not fully American. Growing up as an AAPI person in America requires existing in the paradox of privilege and negation\, which has deep clinical implications. Clinical work with AAIP clients must be contextualized by the complex social and historical forces that shape their lived experience. \n  \nBREAK 4:15-4:30 \n  \nPANEL IV \n4:30-6:00pm \nTranscendental and the Uncanny: The Liminality of Death Itself \nCo-Moderators: Rande Brown\, LCSW and Naomi Snider\, LLM\, LP \nPanelists: Alexis Tomarken\, Ph.D\, Koshin Paley Ellison\, MFA\, LMSW\, DMIN\, Leanne Domash\, Ph.D. \nFreud’s materialistic understanding of death as the end of human consciousness (1915) continues to be treated as axiomatic within psychoanalytic theory and practice. From this perspective\, belief in an afterlife is reduced to magical thinking. In what ways does this orthodoxy foreclose deeper exploration with patients of the nature of being and non-being and the spaces in between? Contemporary psychoanalysis has become more open to the “extraordinary” and uncanny ways in which minds meet in defiance of traditional boundaries of space and time. Yet\, remarkably little has been said about how such experiences might shape our relationship to death and the deceased. Against this backdrop of silence and silencing\, panelists will explore expanded understandings of consciousness and their impact on psychoanalytic encounters with death\, loss\, and the vagaries of living. \n***** \nDownload the Program brochure for the conference\, here. \n  \nAbout CE/CME Credits for this conference \n2 CE or CME Credits are available for attending Friday evening\, alone.
