SUMMARY:Joshua Durban\, FIPA\, Revisited: Home\, Homelessness\, and Nowhere-ness in Early Infancy - Part 1 of 2*
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\nJOSHUA DURBAN\, FIPA\nREVISITED: HOME\, HOMELESSNESS\, AND NOWHERE-NESS IN EARLY INFANCY  (Part 1)\nwith Moderator Tammy Kaminer\, PhD\nWEDNESDAY\, DECEMBER 4th\, 8:00-10:00PM\n*This is Part 1 of a two part event\nSeating for this and all Colloquium events are on a first come\, first serve basis.\n\nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nThe construction of a sense of home in early infancy is a complex achievement. It is intertwined throughout life with the child’s pursuit of a safe physio-mental coverage. This process will be described as an interaction between: (a) a safe dwelling in the body-as-mother (constitution); (b) the internalization of the mother-as-me (internal object space); and (c) the establishment of Oedipal triangular space\, which is responsible for the capacity to move between narcissism-as-a-home and the world-as-a-home.\nThe construction of a home as an interplay between these two elements is accompanied by distinct anxieties and unconscious fantasies. Disruption in the early process due to deficit\, internal object relations\, or environmental factors\, might lead to severe withdrawal\, mindlessness\, hatred\, violence\, and murderousness. A distinction will be made between these mental states of being-at-home\, homelessness\, and nowhere-ness based on the corresponding levels of early developmental and typical anxieties.\nHome and homelessness are seen as more developed states of object relating accompanied by some capacity for depressive feelings of loss\, mourning\, and longing. Nowhere-ness\, however\, stems from early states of anxiety-of-being and osmotic/diffuse anxieties\, which are characterised by confusion between self and object\, by a lack of orientation and of a sense of agency\, as well as by nameless grief\, nameless dread\, and devastation. The varieties of home\, homelessness\, and nowhere-ness will be discussed along with clinical material from the analytic treatment of a refugee child on the autistic spectrum and of his father. The role of psychoanalysis and of the psychoanalyst in promoting the creation of an internal home will be described in reference to technique.\n1.5 CEs are available for attending this presentation. \n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nJoshua Durban\, FIPA\, is training and supervising child and adult psychoanalyst at the Israeli Psychoanalytic Society and Institute in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv (IPA); and a research analyst and instructor at the Psychoanalytic Center of California (PCC) in Los Angeles. He is the founder and the clinical director of the Vista Autism Center (VAC) at the Vista Del Mar Child and Family Services (VDM) in Los Angeles\, which provides psychoanalytic treatment for infants\, toddlers\, adolescents and young adults on the autism spectrum and their families.

SUMMARY:REVERSOS with Dr. Ernesto Mujica
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTED BY THE ARTIST STUDY GROUP OF THE PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICE FOR PEOPLE IN THE ARTS \nTHURSDAY\, December 5th\, 2024 from 1:30-3:00PM/Eastern\nREVERSOS\nWITH ERNESTO MUJICA\, PhD\n  \nAttend in person or online as follows:\nIn person at the Institute\, 20 West 74th Street\, between CPW & Columbus Avenues\nOnline via Zoom at: https://wawhite.zoom.us/j/8180152948?pwd=cDkrUTlMSndQendyZzhnc054c0tpQT09\nPlease be sure to RSVP to attend: fvdillon@gmail.com\n  \nABOUT THIS PRESENTATION\nDr. Ernesto Mujica was inspired to share his experience following a visit in February 2024 to the Museo del Prado and seeing the exhibit\, “Reversos”.  According to him\, “There were two very unique aspects to this exhibit: one being that the curator is an artist himself – rather than an art historian – as would most typically be for an exhibit of this nature. The curator\, Miguel Angel Blanco\, noted that the museum had provided him with the “poetic license for subjectivity and imagination” to be an integral part of this project. The second unique feature was the focus on an exploration of the reverse side of paintings.”\nDr. Mujica was struck by the kindred spirit between the project of “Reversos” and our work as psychoanalysts\, a project entrenched in curiosity and fascination with the relationship between what is portrayed and what is hidden\, what is initially offered as ‘real’ and what has led to its creation\, its context and its history. Some of the topics to be discussed in his presentation concern the self-portrait of the artist as it is revealed by the back side of a painting and the ‘unseen’ as a field for experimentation and subjective expression.   Clinical vignettes will be discussed which highlight contrasts between how the therapist initially perceives and imagines the patient and what is consequently revealed.\n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nErnesto Mujica\, PhD\, is Director of the Sexual Abuse Study Group and Service at WAWI\, where he also serves as an Associate Editor of the institute’s journal\, Contemporary Psychoanalysis.  Dr. Mujica is a supervisor of psychotherapy at WAWI\, and at the doctoral program in Clinical Psychology of Teachers College\, Columbia University. He integrates his clinical work in the areas of childhood and adult trauma\, as well as sociocultural factors in mental health\, with his strong interest in the arts.  His previous talks within the WAWI Artists Study Group have included discussions of artists El Anatsui (Ghana & Nigeria)\, Kent Monkman (First Nations-Cree\, Canada)\, and Yayoi Kusama (Japan).\n  \nFrances V. Dillon\, MSW\, and Eric Dammann\, PhD\, are Co-Directors of the  Artist Study Group.

Dr. Tummala-Narra will delineate how these misperceptions contribute to racial disparities in access to appropriate mental health care. She will explore how the historical neglect of sociocultural issues in clinical theory shape contemporary notions of depth therapy and call attention to how psychodynamic concepts are critical for culturally informed interventions. She will present research and clinical case vignettes to illustrate how sociocultural oppression\, such as racism and xenophobia\, can be engaged in the therapeutic relationship.\n  \nABOUT THE PsiAN SERIES\nIn these last few years\, we have witnessed unprecedented upheaval in the areas of politics\, social justice\, the natural world\, and public health. Alongside these national and global challenges\, we are amid a mental health crisis with decreasing access to psychotherapy. It is vitally important in order for our practices and communities to thrive to be informed about how depth therapies can help\, what people are looking for in mental health treatment\, and how we can support and protect the work we do\, while making it more accessible to more people.\nPrevailing myths and misconceptions regarding mental health and psychotherapy that either clinicians or the public hold need to be challenged\, as they limit our capacity to help more people in more circumstances and often steer the public\, including marginalized communities\, towards a reduced set of options.\nMany of these areas are not addressed in undergraduate and graduate education\, and therapists often start practicing without a greater understanding and appreciation of these issues and the very real ways in which they can impact and impede our work.\nThis webinar series will help students and therapists at all career stages develop a greater understanding of the mental health landscape\, and how they can protect and advance the work they do.\nRead about the Psychotherapy Action Network (PsiAN) \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\n \nUsha Tummala-Narra\, PhD\, is a Professor of Counseling\, Developmental\, and Educational Psychology at Boston College. Her research and scholarship focus on immigration\, trauma\, and culturally informed psychoanalytic psychotherapy. She is also a clinical psychologist in Independent Practice and works primarily with survivors of trauma from diverse sociocultural backgrounds.

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.
