SUMMARY:COWAP Revisiting the Maternal: Parenting a Child with a Facial Difference
DESCRIPTION:with Sandy Hershberg \nMothering her child with Moebius Syndrome\, congenital facial paralysis\, in which the face appears visibly different from birth\, sets the stage for Sandy Hershberg’s experience of mothering in which her sense of herself and sense of unfamiliarity within herself is intensified by the “the uncanny gaze” of others on her child\, thus heightening her own ambivalence. Referencing the impact of various gazes — loving empathic\, uncanny\, paternal\, grandmotherly\, medical and analytic– along with her daughter’s writings\, the discussion will offer a window into the maternal experiences of abjection and pleasure and the child’s experiences of alienation\, reparation and rebellion. The impact of these experiences on the analyst’s sensibility and view of difference will be explored. \nREGISTER HERE: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration-cowap-2022

SUMMARY:Washington Case Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Washington Area Case Conference and Seminar Series is co-sponsored by the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis (WBCP) and the Contemporary Freudian Society (CFS). This program is offered to members and students of both organizations as well as psychoanalysts\, psychiatrists\, psychologists\, social workers\, licensed counselors\, mental health students\, and other mental health providers from the Washington Baltimore metropolitan area interested in psychoanalytic theory\, practice and perspectives. \n8 Conferences\nSeptember 9\, 2022 – May 12\, 2023\nFridays\, 12:15 – 2:15 pm ET\nVia Zoom \nFor a complete list of dates\, presenters\, learning objectives\, and detailed CME/CE information and to REGISTER Click Here: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration-wcc-22-23 \n2 CME/CE available per session. Maximum 26 CME/CE available. \nPresenters: Kerry Malawista\, PhD\, Elizabeth Miller\, MSW\, Christie Platt\, PhD \nTOPIC: THINGS THEY CARRY – WRITING FOR HEALING\nThe Things They Carry Project was created to offer frontline healthcare workers the opportunity to process the difficult\, and at times\, traumatic experiences of working during the pandemic. TTC expanded to offer groups for young women in Bangladesh\, many of whom are refugees\, coming from worlds of trauma\, with loss\, pain and violence. Our goal is to offer these women a small community to connect with and help them strengthen their resilience and build their inner resources. Both projects offer support and writing prompts\, allowing participants to explore their experiences\, share their writing\, listen\, and respond to each other. Sharing stories and traumas\, putting words to feelings\, can hasten healing by breaking through the isolation that often accompanies pain. This workshop will offer participants an understanding of the ways psychoanalytic thinking can be used to help people in hard to reach communities-even globally-providing support and skills they can carry with them. We will explore the complexity of working overseas\, with different languages and culture.

SUMMARY:COWAP Revisiting the Maternal: The Future of Care
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Sally Weintrobe in conversation with Wendy Hollway \nModerated by Lynne Zeavin \nSally Weintrobe (UK) will discuss various elements of the environmental crisis\, and the question of the future; Our survival depends upon care being sufficiently strong to hold uncare in check. Care requires a culture of care. Neoliberalism’s culture of uncare has waged war on care\, stripping us of our sense of community.  It has promoted false binaries that dehumanise.. We cannot  imagine let alone build a world that supports life unless we can deconstruct the insidious categories that continue to fracture our psychic landscapes. One example concerns gender and maternal forms of care that go unrewarded.. ‘Care economics’ is emerging to radically challenge this framing.

SUMMARY:New Directions - "Poetry and Psychoanalysis"
DESCRIPTION:This weekend conference will be held online using the Zoom platform.\n\nFebruary 2-5\, 2023 \n“…that strange being\, the Creative Writer.”\n-S. Freud in Creative Writers and Day-Dreaming (1908) \nThe enormous creativity of the unconscious mind is the raw material of both poetry and psychoanalysis.  Ever since Freud began to publish his startling new ideas about the existence and the powerful influence of the unconscious mind\, psychoanalysis has been closely connected with poetry\, and poetry has been fascinated by psychoanalysis. Literary modernism and psychoanalysis grew up alongside each other\, and the history of early twentieth century poetry is intertwined with Freud’s developing theories. H.D.\, Bertolt Brecht\, D.H. Lawrence\, Muriel Rukeyser\, and many other writers undertook the talking cure. Freud\, himself\, loved poetry and admired poets.  His work is full of poetic allusions\, and he often credited poets with the original discovery of the unconscious\, the lynchpin of psychoanalysis.  “The poets were there before I was\,” he said. \nIn a wonderful little book of our time\, How to Read a Poem and Fall in Love with Poetry\, poet Edward Hirsch’s description of how poems communicate could also serve as an explanation of how a good therapy operates: \nPoems communicate before they are understood\, and the structure operates on or inside the reader even as the words infiltrate the consciousness.  The form is like the shape of the poems’ understanding\, its way of being in the world\, and it is the form that structures our experience.    (p.27) \nThe form of a psychoanalysis is a repeating\, closed-frame form within which two people meet regularly to do nothing more than talk (sometimes) and listen (incessantly).  Within that frame\, over time\, the inchoate mass of a particular person’s psyche can undergo a process of change (revision) that we can regard as a kind of text.  If poetry writing can result in a text-based aesthetic product we call a poem\, likewise a psychoanalysis carries the possibility of producing language-based realizations about the self that we call insight.  It is also true that both the writing of poetry and psychoanalysis (as analyst or analysand) depend upon an individual’s ability to undertake the self-willed destruction of internalized beliefs\, habits\, and ways of thinking\, speaking\, writing\, and imagining that have become counterproductive in life or in art.  Both endeavors require psychological fortitude\, access to one’s imagination\, and the willingness to take risks.  The processes of poetry and psychoanalysis\, then\, are remarkably similar\, and both are deeply creative acts. \nDuring this weekend conference\, we will explore the convergences and commonalities of poetry and psychoanalysis. Our starting point will be language\, their common denominator: language that is spoken aloud or written down; language that is not spoken aloud\, but that is thought; and language that manifests mysteriously as both sound and silence on the page and in the consulting room.  We will also look at some of the ways in which the habits and practices of poets and analysts both resemble and differ from each other. \nCoordinators: Kate Daniels\, M.A.\, M.F.A. \nGUEST FACULTY: \nMajor Jackson is a poet\, editor\, and critic.  He is the author of six volumes of poetry\, the poetry editor of the Harvard Review\, and the recipient of numerous awards for his work\, including the Guggenheim Fellowship\, the Radcliffe Institute Fellowship at Harvard\, the Whiting Award\, NAACP Image Award\, National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship\, Cave Canem Prize\, the Pew Fellowship\, among others. He is the Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Chair in the Humanities at Vanderbilt University where he directs the creative writing program.  His most recent collection\, The Absurd Man\, is a reworking of Albert Camus’ iconic work\, The Myth of Sisyphus.    It is a psychologically bracing re-envisioning of the poet as an “absurd hero” for our times. The existentialist questions the collection engages with poetically and psychologically are situated at the center of our contemporary moment: why are we here\, and what gives meaning to life in these times? \nDidi Jackson is a poet and assistant professor of English at Vanderbilt University.  Her poems have appeared in the New Yorker\, Kenyon Review\, Iowa Review\, Ploughshares\, et al. Her first collection of poetry\, Moon Jar\, explores the catastrophic trauma of losing a spouse to suicide.  She is particularly interested in poetry’s capacity for processing trauma and for creating empathy in readers\, as well as in poetry’s therapeutic applications. Her background in the visual arts manifests in poetry as an interest in the healing convergences of image\, metaphor\, and myth in poetry and psychotherapy. \nDavid Shaddock M.F.T.\, PhD has over forty years of experience as a psychotherapist. He is an internationally known expert on relationships who has taught and lectured in Israel\, Italy\, Mexico\, and Chile. He is the author of clinical and creative works\, including:  Poetry and Psychoanalysis: Opening the Field (2022)\, part of the Art\, Creativity\, and Psychoanalysis Book Series published by Routledge Press; Contests and Connections: An Intersubjective Approach to Couples Therapy (Basic Books\, 2000); From Impasse to Intimacy: How Understanding Unconscious Needs Can Transform Relationships (Aronson\, 1998); and four collections of poetry\, most recently\, The Book of Splendor: New and Selected Poems on Spiritual Themes (Kelsay Books\, 2019).  He maintains a private practice as a marriage and family therapist  in Berkeley\, California.

SUMMARY:COWAP Revisiting the Maternal: The Maternal Death Drive
DESCRIPTION:with Lisa Baraitser \nThis “conversation” will focus on Lisa Baraitser’s understanding of a ‘maternal death drive’. This supplements Freud’s death drive by accounting for the temporality of repetition that retains a relation to the future but remains distinct from a life drive. Maternity\, and many other forms of care work that are traditionally assigned to women\, fails to be indifferent to the specificity of its labor\, and implies a willingness to return\, again and again\, to a scene that matters\, a kind of repetition that is not quite captured by the death drive as excessive access to jouissance\, nor to the death drive as a deviation towards a unique form of death. Rather\, the maternal death drive has to do with repetition in the name of generativity\, not of the self\, but of the other. The return to a scene that matters is not a kind of flowing time (anyone who has spent time with small children will know this)\, nor the stultifying time of indifferent labor\, but requires living in a suspended or crystalline time\, which is the time it takes for love and hate to have a relation to one another based on guilt\, and for mattering to take place. The temporal form of this ‘life in death’ is that of ‘dynamic chronicity’\, analogous to late modern narratives that describe the present as ‘thin’ and the time of human futurity as running out. I argue that the urgency to act on the present in the name of the future is simultaneously ‘suspended’ by the repetitions of late capitalism\, leading to a temporal hiatus that must be embraced rather than simply lamented. The maternal (death drive) alerts us to alternative ways of ‘going on’ in the suspended ‘grey time’ of an uncertain future.

SUMMARY:COWAP Revisiting the Maternal: Melanie Klein and the Maternal
DESCRIPTION:Melanie Klein and the Maternal \nAt the core of Melanie Klein’s theory of the infantile mind is her understanding that the object is present from the beginning of life and is crucial to the structuring of mental life.  Her emphasis on the early maternal includes the mother’s mind and her role in helping the child relate to real persons in a lively and creative way.  Of course\, Klein understood that the mother\, like the child\, is capable of destructive feeling that must be navigated and increasingly tolerated throughout the life cycle. This includes primary envy\, which Klein posited as a root force in the infant’s mind. \nThis conversation\, among four psychoanalysts who have had a longstanding relationship with the thinking of the contemporary Kleinians\, will take up several central aspects of Klein’s notion of the maternal and will include time for conversation with the audience.

SUMMARY:Stacia I. Super Memorial Ethics Conference
DESCRIPTION:The keynote speakers will be Dr. Christine Courtois and Carrie T. Ishee\, LPCC and the discussant will be our own Dr. Richard Waugaman.  In keeping with Dr. Courtois’ new book\, Sexual Boundary Violations in Psychotherapy\, she will be exploring various ethical considerations associated with sexual boundary transgressions made by therapists. \nThe #MeToo movement\, documenting sexual violations across many professional and occupational settings\, makes clear that such events are alarmingly common. The psychotherapy setting is not the exception. In fact\, the nature of psychotherapeutic work may contribute to vulnerabilities given the powerful and intimate emotions engendered and the transference and countertransference responses that are relationally stimulated.  Clinicians who treat the victimized client in subsequent therapy and those who treat or supervise the offending therapist face special challenges and require specialized knowledge. \n  \nREGISTER: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration-2022-stacia-ethics-conference \nRegistration Deadline: Wednesday\, November 30\, 2022 \nFor a complete list of dates\, presenters\, learning objectives\, and detailed CME/CE information see flyer on the registration page.

SUMMARY:New Directions - "What's in Mind?"
DESCRIPTION:This weekend conference will be held online using the Zoom platform.\n\nHOW DID IT GET THERE? WHAT’S TO BE DONE? \nNovember 3-6\, 2022 \nThis weekend will explore the notion of mentalization\, the developmentally-achieved capacity to recognize that what is in our minds is a product of our experience and to know that others have minds of their own\, with contents that are related to their experiences. This capacity emerges within the caregiving relationships\, during the first four years of life. Deficits in mentalization appear frequently in patients with severe personality disorders and occasionally in all patients (and therapists/analysts). Improvements in this capacity are an important marker of successful treatment. \nHow does an appreciation for the developmental trajectory of mentalization affect one’s ways of listening to patients? How does an appreciation of this capacity lead to different ways of intervening? What difference does it make if we take a patient’s insistence that her internal world defines reality as a defensive distortion\, as opposed to a failure to mentalize? These questions can stimulate active discussion/exploration in the course of the weekend. Opening ourselves to data framed in this way can change how we think and ultimately how we help patients to think. \nCoordinator: David Cooper\, Ph.D. and Anne Adelman\, Ph.D.\n \nGUEST FACULTY: \nSTEPHEN SELIGMAN\, DMH is a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the University of California\, San Francisco\, and Joint Editor-in-Chief of Psychoanalytic Dialogues. He is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis and at the Psychoanalytic Institute of Northern California\, and a Clinical Professor at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis. His recent book\, Relationships in Development: Infancy\, Intersubjectivity\, Attachment updates developmental psychoanalysis\, tracing analytic theories of infancy and childhood since Freud and offering a contemporary synthesis of analysis and infancy research. \nAdditional faculty will be announced at a later date.

SUMMARY:Psychoanalytic Takes on the Cinema (The VVitch)
DESCRIPTION:THE VVITCH \nOctober 28\, 2022 \n4:00 pm – 5:30 pm ET \nVia Zoom \nRegister Here: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration-dc-cinema-vvitch \nRegistration Deadline: Wednesday\, October 26\, 2022 \nFor a complete list of dates\, presenters\, learning objectives\, and detailed CME/CE information see flyer on the registration page \n2015 (92 min) \nDirector: Robert Eggers \nDiscussant: Alex Smith\, Psy.D. \nA family in 1630s New England is torn apart by the forces of witchcraft\, black magic and possession. \n  \n*** Film must be viewed prior to event.*** \n  \nPresentation: Horror stories\, often repudiated as beneath other fiction genres\, explore dynamic processes to absurd\, disturbing\, and occasionally transcendent effects. Like all great horror narratives\, Robert Eggers’ The VVitch uses the language of horror to iterate upon anxieties common to the human experience\, chilling and aweing the viewer by revealing the fallibility of our hubristic attempts to manage impossible feelings and thoughts within ourselves. Often\, and sometimes through a mere insidious glimpse of the camera\, Eggers ambitiously addresses concepts ranging from the pitfalls of doctrinal rigidity\, the corruptive forces of moral and natural evil\, and the cosmic insignificance of humanity. \n  \nIn this talk—and given the season— we will celebrate the effectiveness of horror in portraying the profoundly human through the profoundly fantastical. We will briefly and incompletely consider creativity in horror as a means of working through powerful affects and conflicts\, honoring its generativity and cultural value. And\, in our appreciation and exploration of The VVitch\, we will identify several individual and group processes in the film\, including projection\, taking interest in the fantastical manifestation of this process in the film.

SUMMARY:Gender and Sexuality Diversities Workshop (LGBTQI Conference)(Registration Closes 10/19)
DESCRIPTION:“Puberty as Threshold: Psychoanalytic Considerations Regarding Hormone Blocking and Cross-Sex Hormones in Work with Transgender Children” \nPresenter: Avgi Saketopoulou\, PsyD \nRegistration Closes 10/19/22 \nSunday\, October 23\, 2022 \n  \n1:00 pm – 4:00 pm ET \nPresentation and Discussion \nVia Zoom (closed captions available) \n3 CME/CEs (meets LGBTQI+ Cultural Competence and Diversities CME/CE requirements) \nREGISTER: https://wbcp.memberclicks.net/registration-lgbtqi-conference \n  \nProgram Description:  Psychoanalysis’s treatment of trans children and trans adolescents ranges from moral panic that masquerades as psychoanalysis to facile\, conceptually lazy “acceptance”. This presentation starts from the premise that both are problematic and insufficient\, and proposes that the difficulty our field is experiencing around trans youth has to do with the challenges trans experience and embodiments pose to our metapsychology. Clinical material that spans a ten-year treatment of a trans child\, will help flesh out the particular pressures transness places on psychoanalytic theorizing -around the sexual\, embodiment\, ethics\, and psychic time- and offer enlarged pathways to clinical engagement with such children. The level of programming is intermediate\, so it will build on a foundational knowledge of gender and introduce contemporary applications of theory and interventions in working with transgender children. \nWho should attend:  \nThe program is extended to members of the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis. We welcome psychoanalysts\, psychiatrists\, psychologists\, social workers\, licensed counselors\, mental health students\, and other mental health providers interested in psychoanalytic theory\, practice and perspectives on LGBTQ+. \n  \nFor a complete list of dates\, presenters\, learning objectives\, and detailed CME/CE information see flier on the registration page.
