Countertransference and transference create the interpersonal relationship which forms the core of effective therapy. Until recently, studies have focused on transference; countertransference remained neglected and often times negated as an undesirable influence in the therapeutic process.
The emphasis that the psychology of the self has placed on the therapist’s emotional responses as a factor in the integration or fragmentation of the patient’s self has enhanced the current lively discussion on the technical use of countertransference. Thus, countertransference and transference are both seen as pivotal forces in therapy. Internationally distinguished faculty address these key issues and highlight clinical applications. Selected workshops offer opportunities to examine relevant aspects of countertransference in the clinical experience.
This program includes the following tapes:
- (822) Divergent & Convergent Concepts
- (823) The Experience of Countertransference in Clinical Practice (Gerald Adler, MD; Bernard Brandchaft, MD
- (824) Discussion of Countertransference
- (825) Clinical Interview and Discussion (Rudolph Ekstein, PhD; Joyce McDougall, D.Ed; Ivan Gabor)

The work on narcissistic and borderline disorders by Heinz Kohut, Otto Kernberg, James Masterson, Harold Searles, and Donald Rinsley, among others, has resulted in renewed efforts to clarify diagnoses and treatment techniques for non-readily classifiable patients.
These patients, considered by analysts to be untreatable, periodically exhibit a wide range of neurotic and psychotic symptoms in addition to those within the classic narcissistic or borderline syndromes. Their sporadic but pervasive feelings of emptiness. Isolation, loneliness, underachievement, and alternately intense/flat affect often provoke others to anger and subsequent rejection and abandonment; their therapists may tend to experience frustration and despair.
This conference is designed to heighten the learning experience on the narcissistic and borderline phenomena through: round table discussions among presenters; team-led sessions; and a case presentation, followed by panel observations and interpretations.

An Historical Overview of the Diagnosis of the Borderline Disorder - Otto Kernberg

Winnicott in his brilliant and sometimes eccentric ways helps those of us who are eclectics and synthesizers to better understand through such means as playing, testing, and creating. As a consequence of his joint training as a pediatrician and psychoanalyst, Winnicott’s work has made significant contributions to the understanding of: (1) infant development, the mother-infant unit, and the caretaking environment; (2) psychotherapy of children and adults; and (3) creativity in art and literature.

This presentation addressed the ways in which children & adolescents
and their parents can use internal reflection to become mindful of
their thoughts and feelings, the way the body influences the mind, and
the causative factors in our motivation. Through the group
experience, children and adolescents can become curious about their
subjective experience, with an emergent sense of novelty and
freshness, attentive to what is experienced in the mind, body and
soul. The group process leads to the formation of a cohesive
self-narrative which, in turn, shapes ones perceptions of the world.
Informed by research in neuroscience, integrated group
psychotherapeutic treatment, sensorimotor (somatic) interventions, and
mindfulness techniques, training is intended for parents, mental
health professionals and/or educators, providing interventions for
use with children and adolescents.

This workshop focuses on the SELF of the therapist in sessions with individuals and couples. If the full range of the therapist’s subjective experiences is considered clinically relevant, the therapist must become attuned to multiple sources of stimuli and plausible interpretations. In terms of couples, the therapist must look honestly inward and outward to the dynamics of the couples as a system and beyond, into the culturally determined beliefs and life events that influence both partners and the therapist.

Stimulated by the pioneering work of D.W. Winnicott, this program looks into the role of the imagination in ordinary and extraordinary life with the goal of helping therapists better understand their patients’ subjective experiences.
The activity of the imagination fills our waking and sleeping hours. It enriches the subjective world in which we all live. Our imagination affects both our relationships to people and to the inanimate world, and is an essential ingredient in the creative process, whether in creating a personal life or an artistic work.
