And so a new world opened up before me\, like a sudden bursting into bloom of inexhaustible miracles\, a world around me and in me that was unending and immeasurable\, a truly magic world to which surrealism has given us once and for all the right keys.” (A. Embiricos\, “Letter to Vivika” in Amour Amour\, København & Los Angeles: Green Integer\, 2003\, p. 20 )\nOur presenter\, Dr. Alexander Baron-Raiffe\, will describe the major challenges and satisfactions of translating the work of Andreas Embiricos (1901-1975)\, a unique figure in the history of both Psychoanalysis and Surrealism in Greece. Embiricos’ work as a psychoanalyst was inseparable from his artistic practice.  Embiricos was personally close to André Breton\, the founder of the Surrealist group\, whose belief he shared: that Surrealism had the potential to effect revolutionary change on both the individual and the societal levels by bringing unconscious material to the surface through contact with the surrealist work of art. Embiricos brought the Surrealist faith to his clinical work through his vision of psychoanalysis as a revolutionary practice. He believed that Freudian psychoanalysts could serve the role of “revolutionary trainer” by liberating repressed libido on the level of the individual patient; at scale\, this could affect transformational change at the societal level.\nJoin us for Dr. Baron-Raiffe’s reading of Embiricos’ poetry and his writings on psychoanalysis\, and a discussion of their clinical resonance in our current socio-political climate.\n  \nAlexander Baron-Raiffe\, PhD\, LP\, is a psychoanalyst in private practice in New York City.  He is an advanced candidate at the Contemporary Freudian Society.  He holds a doctorate in French Literature from Princeton University where he was also a fellow of the Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies.  He has held teaching positions at Princeton University\, Fordham University\, Sarah Lawrence College\, and The New School.\nFrances V. Dillon\, MSW and Eric Dammann\, PhD\, Co-Directors\,  Artist Study Group

SUMMARY:Treating Chronic Somatic Pain: Integrating Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience
DESCRIPTION:with Frances Sommer Anderson\, PhD\, SEP\nA 6-session online mini-course on Friday mornings\, starting June 7th.\n12 CEs are available upon completion of this course.\nThis series presentation has been arranged by the Institute’s Conference Advisory Board through the special efforts of Dr. Jean Petrucelli.\nABOUT THE COURSE\nSomatic pain\, a private subjective experience\, lends itself readily to the psychoanalytic clinicians’ intervention. In this experiential and didactic course\, therapists will learn how to intervene effectively with people in chronic pain\, once a medical evaluation has ruled out structural and/or organic disease as the source.\nThrough discussions of contemporary research on the neuroscience of pain\, analysts will learn how to utilize knowledge about neural plasticity in their clinical work.  Clinical case material\, both published and from ongoing treatments\, will be used to illustrate how integration of Interpersonal/Relational principles with the neuroscience of pain encoding will expand the clinicians’ technical repertoire.\n  \nSERIES SCHEDULE\nClasses will be held online\, on Fridays\, from 10:00AM-12Noon/Eastern time\, on the following dates:\nJune 7\, 14\, 21\, 28 and July 12 & 19\n\nNotes about the Series:\nPreparation for Class 1 will begin with an assignment on May 17th\, emailed to students.

She is recognized internationally for her contributions to the psychoanalytic literature on treating chronic pain\, expanding what she learned from John E. Sarno\, MD and Arlene Feinblatt\, PhD while working at Rusk Rehabilitation-NYU Langone Health.\nWith the late Lewis Aron\, she co-edited Relational Perspectives on the Body (1998)\, the ground-breaking volume credited with bringing the body into relational psychoanalytic theory and practice.  In 2008\, she edited Bodies in Treatment: The Unspoken Dimension\, and in 2013\, co-authored with Dr. Eric Sherman\, Pathways to Pain Relief\, also available in Spanish. She and Dr. Sherman teach courses on treating chronic pain for psychoanalysts. Breaking Out of Pain:  Living the Legacy of John E. Sarno\, MD\, published in December 2023\, was co-authored with Andrea Leonard-Segal\, MD\, Eric Sherman\, PsyD\, and Arlene Feinblatt\, PhD.\nDr. Anderson was the invited lecturer in 2015 at London’s 22nd John Bowlby Memorial Conference\, which honored the contributions of Dr. Sarno. Her paper\, It Was Not Safe to Feel Angry: Disrupted Early Attachment and the Development of Chronic Pain in Later Life\, was published in 2017. In 2016\, she was the only clinician invited to present clinical case material at the American Psychosomatic Society’s research conference\, Neuroscience of Pain: Early Life Adversity\, Mechanisms and Treatment. In collaboration with cognitive neuroscientists Richard D. Lane\, MD and Ryan Smith\, PhD\, she published a theoretical model to explain how physical pain can override emotional pain (2018).\nTo read more about Dr. Anderson\, visit: drfransommeranderson.com\nAlso:  pathwaystopainrelief.com  and breakingoutofpain.com
