Ever since Freud uncovered the unconscious, it has been the hallowed domain of psychoanalytic conceptualization in the continuing workplace of psychoanalytic treatment. The internal world of psychical reality still remains as the main focus of psychoanalysis today. Now trends are beginning to develop which seem to counterbalance that point of view.
Consciousness, the once less prominent counterpart to the unconscious, is recently being accorded the same interest that Freud once accorded to the unconscious. Cognitive and neuroscience studies are now alerting us to what may be called the uniqueness and the mystique of consciousness, an entity which we have taken too much for granted in the past.
Doctors Antonio Damasio and Christof Koch will present convincing evidence of its intrinsic nature from the neuroscience perspective. Dr. Daniel Stern, the infant developmentalist, will present a new form of ontological psychotherapy whose foundation is consciousness. Dr. James Grotstein will integrate all the presentations with a psychoanalytic perspective.

Psychoanalytic practice, and by extension, much of psychotherapeutic practice, had long been dominated by Freud’s instinctual drive theories and their derivatives. Object-relations concepts improvised upon Freud by stating that the drives were always object-dedicated, that is, never free from the consideration of an object.
This is the fourth in a series of conferences dedicated to issues that lie on the cutting edge of psychoanalysis and infant development research. The Psychoanalytic Center of California (PCC) is the sponsor of this conference.

This conference presents a sampling of psychoanalysis as conducted in England, South America, and the United States from the Kleinian/Bionian perspective.
Dr. Michael Feldman, a distinguished London post-Kleinian analyst, will discuss and demonstrate how he and his London colleagues listen to their analysands today. He is the author of numerous, and significant contributions on post-Kleinians theory and technique.
Dr. Shelley Alhanati, who was trained at PCC, will show how a Los Angeles trained Kleinian listens to her patient. Because of her unique intuition and sensitivity, she will also demonstrate the technical use of Bion's theories and recommendations.
Dr. James Grotstein, himself a Kleinian/Bionian, will discuss the presentations from the other contributors, and will integrate their application to all forms of therapy.
