SUMMARY:COWAP: Beauty and Gender: A Psychoanalytic Perspective: Session 2: Fashion from a Gender Psychoanalytic Perspective
DESCRIPTION:COWAP: Beauty and Gender: A Psychoanalytic Perspective\nSession 2: Fashion from a Gender Psychoanalytic Perspective \nSpeakers: Patricia Gherovici and Margarita Cereijido \nSaturday\, June 27\, 2026\n11:00 am – 12:30 pm EST\nVia Zoom\n1.5 CME/CE per session · 4.5 CME/CE total · Captions in all languages \nThis session explores fashion from a gender psychoanalytic perspective\, approaching it not as decoration\, but as an interface\nbetween the individual’s internal and external worlds. Fashion can help contain\, protect\, and organize psychic experience. It\ncan also help individuals inhabit different subjectivities and moods. \nFrom war bonnets to crown jewelry\, cocktail dresses to loincloths and bikinis\, fashion can be seen as a space where identities\n—such as gender and social status—as well as desires\, are inscribed and communicated. \nAlternating between restrictive styles that reshape and constrain the body and transparent\, revealing aesthetics\, fashion plays\na role in navigating the tensions between self-expression and compliance. The session explores how fashion participates in the\nformation of subjectivity\, and how these dynamics reverberate in our clinical work. \nRegister: HERE\nFull Series Flyer: HERE

SUMMARY:COWAP: Beauty and Gender: A Psychoanalytic Perspective: Session 1: Beauty and the Maternal Body
DESCRIPTION:COWAP: Beauty and Gender: A Psychoanalytic Perspective \nSession 1: Beauty and the Maternal Body\nSpeakers: Patricia Alkolombre\, PhD and Catherine Mallouh\, MD \nSaturday\, May 9\, 2026\n11:00 am – 12:30 pm EST\nVia Zoom\n1.5 CME/CE per session · 4.5 CME/CE total · Captions in all languages \nPresentation Description: \nThe images of the maternal body and pregnancy throughout history reflect the different ideals of beauty and aesthetics that\nprevailed in each period. These ideals are expressed in painting and sculpture\, and later in images\, whether photographic or\ndigital\, and in various media. \nThese images reflect the place of women in each culture\, their maternal role and the different vicissitudes they experience.\nFrom paintings of Madonnas holding their babies—and hiding their pregnant bodies—to the present day\, where women take\nphotographs of their bellies during pregnancy. Or they paint their own experiences of pregnancy\, as Frida Kahlo did when she\ncaptured her miscarriage in a painting as a way of processing it. We will approach these topics from a psychoanalytic\nperspective. \nRegister: HERE\nFull Series Flyer: HERE

SUMMARY:Psychoanalytic Takes On Cinema: Session 3 of 3: Discussion of the film "Please Stand By"- Karen Weise\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:*** Film must be viewed prior to event. *** \nDiscussion of the film “Please Stand By”\n \nFriday\, February 27\, 2026\n4:00 pm – 5:30 pm\nVia Zoom \n2023 (93 min)\nDirector: Ben Lewin\nDiscussant: Karen Weise\, PhD \nA young autistic woman runs away from her caregiver in an attempt to submit her 500-page manuscript to a “Star Trek” writing competition at Paramount Pictures. \n  \nPresentation This presentation will consider how racially crafted stereotypes located in literary and film works have permeated artistic mediums over the last century. Jefferson’s American Fiction depicts an esteemed scholar and novelist frustrated by the narratives published in the literary world that perpetuates racial stereotypes influencing the ways in which people of color are imagined and understood in the world.  Within this presentation\, racial stereotypes frequently depicted are examined understanding that their insidious residue exist within quotidian dynamics\, including therapy rooms.  This film carefully examines the roles artists and audiences have to uphold racial stereotypes within present day artistic expressions\, while challenging one to consider how minority artists have contended with these stereotypes and navigated systems that depict their identity as the other. American Fiction directly confronts these systemically racially charged dynamics while being curious regarding whose voices and narratives are silenced and whose are celebrated. \nDiscussant: Karen Weise\, PhD is a clinical psychologist and child/adolescent psychoanalyst based in Washington DC. She obtained her PhD in clinical psychology from City College in New York (CUNY) and completed her psychoanalytic training at the Hampstead Clinic (Anna Freud Centre) in London. She presently has a psychotherapy and assessment practice in NW DC\, where she works with children through young adults and their parents. Over the past twenty-five years she has been a staff psychologist at Children’s National Medical Center in the Developmental Clinic\, as well as at the Reginald S. Lourie Center for Infants & Young Children. She has long been involved in psychoanalytic education and is on the child faculty of the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis\, and is the chair of the Child & Adolescent track in the PsyD program at George Washington University (DC)\, where she has been core faculty for more than ten years.

Dr. Weise has presented her clinical work with gender-expansive youth to a variety of local audiences\, and also has clinical interests in working with children and adolescents on the autism spectrum and/or with adoption histories. \nPre-registration is required via the WBCP website at http://wbcp.org.

SUMMARY:Cultural Competence Conference: Misogyny Then and Now: Implications for Psychoanalytic Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Misogyny Then and Now: Implications for Psychoanalytic Perspectives \nPresented by\nSpecial Guest: Filmmaker Jennifer Reeves\,\nMargarita Cereijido\, PhD\, Paula Ellman\, PhD\, David Joseph\, MD\, Janice Lieberman\, PhD \n\nSaturday\, November 22\, 2025\n10:00 am – 1:00 pm (3 CME/CE)\nPresentation and Discussion via Zoom \n\n\nPresentation: \nNotions of the feminine and misogyny have changed significantly since the 1960s. These changes are reflected in how women perceive themselves and how they are understood and positioned in society.  \nIn this conference\, we discuss and compare the unconscious gender ideals and prejudices of the 1960s with those of today. We explore the evolution of the ethical treatment of women as well as developments in psychotherapy and psychoanalytic technique. \nOur discussion is framed by the classic documentary Approaches to Psychotherapy (1964) which has recently been reimagined in a new film\, The Gloria of My Imagination (2025)\, by the talented award-winning film-director Jennifer Reeves.  In her film\, Reeves explores the social context of Gloria’s life.  \nThe original film captured the work of three renowned figures—Carl Rogers\, Fritz Perls\, and Albert Ellis—in their sessions with Gloria\, a newly divorced patient. For decades\, it served as a cornerstone in the training of psychology students worldwide. \nAlong with Reeves’ reflections on her film through screening selected clips\, Margarita Cereijido\, Paula Ellman\, Janice Lieberman and David Joseph present and discuss changing perspectives on femininity\, misogyny\, and psychoanalytic theory and technique followed by engagement with the audience.  \nAttendees will have access to the complete film 2 weeks prior to the conference.  \nFLYER: HERE\nREGISTRATION LINK: HERE

SUMMARY:Psychoanalytic Takes On Cinema: Session 1 of 3: Discussion of the film "The Thing"
DESCRIPTION:*** Film must be viewed prior to event.*** \nDiscussion of the film “The Thing”\n \nFriday\, November 14\, 2025\n4:00 pm – 5:30 pm\nVia Zoom \n1982 (109 min)\nDirector: John Carpenter\nDiscussant: Alex Smith\, Psy.D. \nA research team in Antarctica is hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of its victims. \n  \nPresentation At surface level fantastical\, appalling\, and occasionally comical\, horror renders that which is unthinkable or unspeakable into inhuman\, slimy\, or spectral forms\, presenting the taboo or the overwhelming at a safe\, controllable distance from the self. In horror\, unthinkable and unspeakable aspects of the “self” can be experienced as the monstrous “other” and exorcised with flamethrowers. The horror movie generates credibility through performance\, photography\, and effects that ground the viewer in a “reality” that can then become credibly unreal. This magical reality evokes archaic experiences of the self as unbounded and vulnerable\, taking on challenging\, unsettling thoughts and feelings while allowing for the suspension of the neatly boundaried “I” of the viewer. \nJohn Carpenter’s The Thing belongs to a rich tradition of paranoia and body horror in the uncanny narrative and horror cinema. The self\, here under the condition of isolation and environmental confusion\, becomes vulnerable to external corruption. The un-integrable impulse is cast off\, producing a disintegrated state. Then\, in the presence of an alien “other”\, the once familiar body is usurped. The mind is subsumed. The “me” becomes a “me” copy that is at once terrifying and terrified\, its sole purpose being to consume additional “others.” The Thing is an allegory for the mental mechanisms of unbounded consciousness: not only the body\, but also the psychological boundaries constituting the self\, are at risk. \nIn working on this allegory\, we will briefly touch on horror cinema’s enduring interest in paranoia and the unbounded consciousness. We will consider Clara Keane’s clairvoyant work on existential permeability and Andre Green’s psychic envelopes as regards their explanatory power for experiences of unbounded consciousness\, paranoia\, and uncanny encounters. We will see how The Thing\, as an apex of creeptastic cinema\, resonates with our own experiences—both archaic and present-day—of the fragility of our distinct\, boundaried sense of a “me”\, and why it matters. \nDiscussant: Alex Smith\, PsyD\, completed his postdoctoral fellowship and additional trainings in psychoanalytic theory\, psychotherapy\, and supervision at the New York Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and the Washington School of Psychiatry. He is an Associate Professor at George Washington University. He has led classes in psychological assessment\, psychotherapy\, ethics\, and the writing of the horror story. Alex has a private practice in Washington\, DC.\n \nPre-registration is required via the WBCP website at http://wbcp.org.

SUMMARY:Observational Studies Program Conference: Exploring the Links: Moving from Observation to Transformative Interventions - Jeanne Magagna\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Observational Studies Program Conference\nExploring the Links: Moving from Observation to Transformative Interventions \n\nWe are excited to announce our upcoming conference with Jeanne Magagna\, PhD\,  Tavistock Centre-trained Child\, Adolescent and Adult Psychotherapist\nLondon\, UK \n \n\nSaturday\, November 1\, 2025\nGeorge Washington University Hospital Auditorium\n8:45 am – 4:45 pm ET\n6 CME/CE\nDr. Magagna’s work emphasizes the transformative power of observing babies\, a skill she has taught worldwide based on the Tavistock Clinic model. This approach has profound implications for enhancing our understanding of children and their families\, illustrating how early observation can deepen parents’ comprehension of their children. Her commitment to this method led to the development of a specialized nursery in Rome. She teaches and publishes internationally. Jeanne is the Joint Editor of various books including Intimate Transformations: Babies with their Families\, Psychotherapy with Families\, Being Present for  Your Nursery Age Child and The Silent Child: Communication without Words\, Creativity and Psychotic States and Contemporary Child Psychotherapy. She is also the author of The Psychotherapeutic Understanding of Children and Adolescents with Eating Difficulties.   \nHer most impactful work\, “The Silent Child: Communication Without Words\,” explores the challenges of treating 19 comatose non-verbal children in talking therapies. Magagna’s approach to psychotherapy is grounded in her early life experiences and the inspiration she drew from Esther Bick\, the originator of infant observation. Her journey from learning the craft under Bick’s tutelage to becoming a globally recognized educator and clinician underscores her passion and dedication to child mental health. \nClick here for a personal invitation from Dr. Magagna and learn more about the upcoming conference. \nRegistration Link: CLICK HERE\nProgram Flyer: CLICK HERE

If you plan to attend both\, you must complete a registration for each event individually. \nRegistration Link: CLICK HERE\nProgram Flyer: CLICK HERE \nPresentation: WBCP students and candidates will meet with the presenters to discuss the workshop and clinical material. This discussion seeks to explore a range of engagements with gender in the psychoanalytic encounter. One portion of the workshop will explore how contemporary anti-trans legislation and cultural narratives of monstrosity distort the analytic space for trans and gender expansive patients\, threatening their capacity for playful work\, while highlighting how trans survival and creativity might persist in the face of annihilating projections. The other portion turns to aliveness: how loosening gender constraints in the consulting room allows for the exploration and re-avowal of certain\, gendered parts and ultimately can lead to a unique\, profound experience of feeling alive. Together\, these presentations underscore psychoanalysis as both refuge and crucible—where both monstrousness and aliveness might meet.\n\nPresenter: Sien Rivera\, MD\, is Assistant Program Director of the Prisma Health Midlands/University of South Carolina General Psychiatry residency program\, and Assistant Clinical Professor at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Columbia\, SC.

Stoute\, MD \n \nSaturday\, May 10\, 2025 \n 11:00 am – 1:30 pm \nE pluribus unum: An American Fantasy?\nPresentation Open to the Community\nGeorge Washington University Hospital Auditorium\n 2.5 CE  \nLive Presentation Only Must be able to attend in person. No Zoom option is available Limited Space Available – Register Today!  \nPresenter Bio:  \nBeverly J. Stoute\, MD\, DFAPA\, DFAACAP\, FABP\, a child\, adolescent\, and adult psychiatrist and psychoanalyst\, leadership advisor and organizational consultant\, is an internationally recognized scholar\, educator\, and leader in the field of psychoanalysis. A Training and Supervising Analyst at Emory University Psychoanalytic Institute and a Child and Adolescent Supervising Analyst at The New York Psychoanalytic Institute\, Dr. Stoute is on the faculty of the Emory University and Morehouse Schools of Medicine and has taught in the Leadership Fellows Program of the Emory Goizueta Business School. A Distinguished Fellow of both the American Psychiatric Association and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry\, she has received many awards in many areas. Dr. Stoute has developed\, moderated\, and presented over 150 panels and programs nationally and internationally. Her scholarly work\, featured in the archives of the Freud Museum in London\, has been translated into German\, Spanish\, and Portuguese. She has held multiple leadership positions\, including on the Executive Committee of the American Psychoanalytic Association and as a Co-Chair of The Holmes Commission on Racial Equality in American Psychoanalysis. Drawing on thirty years of experiences as an educator\, clinician\, consultant and executive coach and leadership advisor\, Dr. Stoute has collaborated with professionals at all stages of career and professional development in not-for-profit organizations\, academic medical centers\, universities\, mental health training programs\, community mental health\, boards of education\, business\, and the law. Her 2023 book\, co-edited with Michael Slevin is entitled The Trauma of Racism: Lessons from the Therapeutic Encounter. She maintains a full-time private practice of child\, adolescent and adult psychiatry\, psychotherapy\, psychoanalysis\, family therapy\, supervision\, organizational consultation\, and leadership advising in Atlanta\, GA. \nAbstract:  \nCultural and historical attitudes about race and gender shape our perceptions of ourselves. The psychodynamic process of “Othering” occurs when our cultural and historical identities organize our perceptions of whom we define as the in group (“us”) and the out-group (“them”). The need to see the world as “us” versus “them” undermines the advantages that pluralism brings. Understanding how othering enactments play out requires us to reflect on the question\, as Fanon did\, how does culture seep into our minds? What can psychoanalysis offer us in understanding these dynamics? When othering dominates and polarizing interactions occur between individuals and groups\, what does E pluribus unum\, “out of many one” mean? Can a shared group identity ever become a reality? Case examples will be used to illustrate how we can think together about these questions. \nRegister Here: CLICK HERE\nProgram Flyer: CLICK HERE

SUMMARY:Washington Case Conference
DESCRIPTION:April 11\, 2025:\nVia Zoom \nImplications of Linguistic Identity for the Psychotherapeutic Process\nPresented by: Maria Lima \nWhile our globalized world has increased the prevalence of multilingual patients and therapists\, multilingualism seems to be a topic that remains unspoken in psychotherapy training programs as well as in institutions that provide psychotherapy to the wider community. The lack of awareness about the specificities of the multilingual experience can cause therapists to misunderstand their patients’ emotional functioning and to misdiagnose them. This presentation aims to provide a means to reflect on how language is at the core of the individual’s identity – their sense of self and mode of being in the world. It also aims to address the implications of multilingualism for psychotherapeutic practice by using clinical material from psychotherapy sessions with monolingual and bilingual patients. In this presentation we will delve into the particularities of the subjective experience of people who make sense of themselves and the world in more than one language\, and it will be argued that an awareness of the linguistic characteristics of each patient promotes better psychotherapeutic practice\, whether conducted by monolingual or multilingual therapists. We will then extend this exploration to monolingual therapeutic dyads\, emphasizing that even in such dyads\, there may be “different languages” being spoken\, as the same words can have distinct emotional connotations depending on each person’s lived experience. \nRegister at CFS: https://contemporaryfreudiansociety.org/calendar-of-events/public-events/ \nFor any questions/concerns regarding the Washington Case Conference please contact Connie Stroboulis at connies3@aol.com

SUMMARY:COWAP: “Women\, The Longest Revolution”: Session 6: Women and Literature
DESCRIPTION:“Women’s Lives in Transition: Novelists Amy Bloom and Lisa Gornick in Conversation” \nDate: March 8\, 2025 \nTime: 11:00 am – 12:30 pm ET \n  \nRegistration Link: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration_cowap_women_revolution_2024-2025 \nClick Here to View the Program Flyer \nRegistration Deadline: March 5\, 2025 \nDescription: The presentation “Women’s Lives in Transition: Novelists Amy Bloom and Lisa Gornick In Conversation” provides a unique opportunity for participants to gain insights from two authors who are also psychotherapists. Their conversation offers dynamically rich and complex perspectives on women’s lives across various developmental stages\, encompassing themes such as family dynamics\, love\, work\, and mental health. By exploring the intersection of literature and psychology through the lens of these authors’ works\, participants can deepen their understanding of women’s experiences over time and across the developmental spectrum\, including birth and death\, love and loss\, work and home\, and the complexity of women’s mental health concerns. \nAnne Adelman\, PhD\, will facilitate a conversation between authors/psychotherapists Amy Bloom (In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss\, 2022; I’m Right Here\, forthcoming Summer 2025) and Lisa Gornick (Ana Turns\, 2023). As therapists and authors\, they each have unique\, dynamically rich and complex perspectives on women’s lives across the developmental spectrum\, navigating the pulls of family\, love\, work\, body and mind.

SUMMARY:Psychoanalytic Takes on the Cinema: Discussion of the Film: "American Fiction"
DESCRIPTION:2023 (117 mins)\nDirectors: Dean Fleischer Camp A novelist disheartened by the literary industry profiting from the use of Black authors and narratives uses a pen name to craft a story that earns him acclaim while propelling him into hypocrisy.\nDate: February 27\, 2025 \nTime: 1:00pm – 4:00pm \nPresenter: Katherine Marshall Woods\, PsyD \nWhere: (Hybrid Event) \nThe Textile Museum\n701 21st St NW\, Washington\, DC 20052 \nand  \nVia Zoom \nRegistration Link: Here\n \nProgram Flyer: Here \nRegistration Deadline: February 25\, 2025 \nPresentation Description: \nThis presentation will consider how racially crafted stereotypes located in literary and film works have permeated artistic mediums over the last century. Jefferson’s American Fiction depicts an esteemed scholar and novelist frustrated by the narratives published in the literary world that perpetuates racial stereotypes influencing the ways in which people of color are imagined and understood in the world.  Within this presentation\, racial stereotypes frequently depicted are examined understanding that their insidious residue exist within quotidian dynamics\, including therapy rooms.  This film carefully examines the roles artists and audiences have to uphold racial stereotypes within present day artistic expressions\, while challenging one to consider how minority artists have contended with these stereotypes and navigated systems that depict their identity as the other. American Fiction directly confronts these systemically racially charged dynamics while being curious regarding whose voices and narratives are silenced and whose are celebrated.

SUMMARY:COWAP: “Women\, The Longest Revolution”: Session 5: Material Body
DESCRIPTION:Session 5: The Female Body:  Passion and Peril \nParticipants: Rosemary H. Balsam\, MD\, Rachel Boué-Widawsky\, PhD\, Jeri Isaacson\, PhD\, Chair \nDate: February 22\, 2025 \nTime: 11:00 am – 12:30 pm ET \nRegistration Link: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration_cowap_women_revolution_2024-2025 \nClick Here to View the Program Flyer \nRegistration Deadline: February 19\, 2025 \nDescription: Why do we pay so little attention to the role that the female natal body plays in the development of the psyche?  This contrasts with how the birthing body holds psychic meaning that resonates throughout society.  A graphic example is the fight for legal control over the female body in recent conflicts about abortion.  Yet the procreative body remains relatively unexplored in psychoanalytic literature.  In this discussion\, Drs. Rosemary Balsam and Rachel Boué-Widawsky will consider ways of thinking psychoanalytically about the female body.  Dr. Balsam will talk about the meaning of this absence in our field\, and its impact for our understanding of psychological development.   Dr. Boue-Widawsky will elaborate on this topic by discussing Julia Kristeva’s ideas about the maternal body as an object that is often experienced unconsciously – and consciously – with horror.   What might we add to our understanding of internal\, interpersonal\, and sociocultural dynamics if we were to more fully incorporate these ideas into the larger body of psychoanalytic thought?   We will consider societal dynamics that reflect internal psychic experience\, particularly in light of the burgeoning misogyny we face today. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Thomas and Julia Saltz  Annual Adult Seminar Workshop featuring Dr. Anton Hart
DESCRIPTION:The Thomas and Julia Saltz\nAnnual Adult Seminar Workshop  \nPresents\n\nSomething to Lose: Being in Dialogue About Difference When We Feel Like Leaving\n\nA special presentation by\nDr. Anton Hart\n\nWhen: February 1\, 2025\nTime: 9:00 am – 11: 30 am \nLive Presentation \nWhere: University Club of Washington DC\n1135 16th Street NW\, Washington\, DC 20036 \nThis event qualifies for required DEI credits for WBCP Faculty \n2.5 CME/CE \nRegistration Link: HERE \nProgram Flyer: HERE \nRegistration Deadline: January 29\, 2025 \nSeating is limited. We recommend registering early to guarantee your spot. \n\nPresentation:  \nRacial and other diversities-related enactments in psychoanalytic and other organizations that convene\, and train\, psychotherapists can be observed to occur regularly\, exposing schisms that are carried and caused by personal\, relational\, and social-structural elements. Our collective good intentions and “diversity trainings” fail to avert this. This experiential presentation proposes a framework for being in dialogue about differences when such dialogue becomes difficult\, and impasse seems inevitable. \nAlertness to emergent enactment\, and receptivity to the possibility of our unwitting\, unconscious participation in such enactment—called “radical openness” by the presenter—is seen as key to finding our way out of oblivious\, polarized\, and entrenched\, positions. \nA framework is offered for understanding the challenges and promises of addressing enactments involving race\, class\, culture\, sex\, gender\, and other forms of divisive difference. This will involve placing attention to security and self-esteem concerns (of self and other)\, and a corresponding need for openness to discovery of unconscious implication\, at its center. We will use compelling\, hypothetical vignettes derived from psychoanalytic institute life to explore the idea that setting out to lose what we already know could be a useful strategy for being in and tolerating the anxieties of “impossible” conversations.

Power is considered in the context of key relationships\, such as supervisor-trainee and therapist-patient\, and how it influences interactions and behavior. It encompasses what humans are capable of—beyond the roles they take on or are assigned. \nThe program delves into how those in positions of authority engage with others\, whether through their roles or their mere presence in a shared space. It emphasizes that when power is exercised with the heart and mind aligned\, it has the potential to create fairness for others. This fairness allows for freedom of choice\, a capacity that is both innate and influenced by the presence or absence of power dynamics. \nAt its core\, the program defines power as the ability to exercise choice—whether in words or actions—without it becoming contingent on whether those in authority allow or restrict it. Through this exploration\, participants will gain insight into how power shapes relationships and decision-making in profound ways. \nI Put a Spell on You: \nDuring and post Covid\, internet scams have proliferated. This paper will 1) investigate the dynamics of need and greed that bind the isolated dyad in a scam 2) elaborate how two senses need to be \nactivated to make the scam possible 3) review decades of literature on scammers that confirm the requisite personal qualities of a successful scammer and 4) raise awareness about how under certain circumstances\, we humans can be exploited.

SUMMARY:Psychoanalytic Takes on the Cinema - XXY
DESCRIPTION:Psychoanalytic Takes on the Cinema \nDiscussion of the film XXY(2007) \n \nDirector: Lucia Puenzo \nAfter a chance encounter on the street\, a woman tried to encourage a pregnant domestic abuse victim to see help. \nDiscussant: Helen DeVinney\, PsyD \n  \nDate: April 26th\, 2024 \nTime: 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm \nVia Zoom \nThis presentation will consider how Lucia Puenzo’s XXY imagines a world where an intersex child\, Alex\, is allowed to exist without a need to constantly take up definition and legibility in order to be legitimate. With the family in Uruguay in a kind of social retreat\, Alex simply exists\, as opposed to her existence being presented as an inherent burden or dilemma. The film carefully subverts the male gaze to offer Alex a subjectivity independent of the viewer’s gratification and curiosity. The film also provides an opportunity to consider how the autonomy of an intersex child can be supported or stymied by their parents’ ability to tolerate uncertainty and to challenge their own gender anxiety. The film presents an opportunity to consider how psychoanalysis can also uphold or challenge the male gaze\, confront or collude with anxieties regarding the categories and stability of gender\, and encourage liberation or compliance when working with intersex patients and/or their parents/caregivers. \nDiscussant: Helen DeVinney\, PsyD (she/her) was writing her dissertation in English when she realized that practicing psychoanalytically-informed psychology would allow her to better blend critical theory\, self-inquiry\, and social justice as a lived practice. She completed both her Psy.D. and postdoctoral training at The George Washington University’s Professional Psychology Program before joining its core faculty. She has written and presented on the intersections of psychoanalysis and issues of gender\, sexuality\, race\, and ability\, and she maintains a strong academic and clinical interest in the lived sequelae of what is termed trauma\, as well as linking trauma explicitly to systems of oppression. helen has a private practice in Washington\, DC\, where she is active in exploring with patients the roles of coloniality\, cultural norms and identity when considering what is termed abnormal or pathological or symptomatic\, particularly as it relates to challenging the white cishet ableist imperialist patriarchy. \nREGISTRATION LINK: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration_cinema_4-26-24_xxy

It was founded by Esther Bick\, a child psychoanalyst from the British Psychoanalytical Society\, and was later introduced at the British Psychoanalytic Institute in 1960. Infant Observations have been sown with incredible fertility throughout Latin America\, Europe\, USA\, Africa\, Russia\, Iran\, and China\, among others. In this presentation\, I am going to superimpose and connect the experience of observation and its application to clinical practice. Clinical material will be presented for a fruitful conversation on the use of an observational stance with an individual adult patient. Maria Lima PsyD\, a graduate from our program\, will present the vignettes. \nPresenter Bios: \nNydia Lisman-Pieczanski\, MD\, is a Child and Adult psychoanalyst\, trained at\nthe British Psychoanalytical Institute.
