ONLINE WORKSHOP - Cultivating Progressive Emotional Communication in Group Psychotherapy (OW91425) – 2.5 contact hours

This includes three ingredients: members put their feelings into words, they express those feelings towards others in the group, and the process should produce new, meaningful emotional content. This didactic and experiential workshop explores the role of progressive emotional communication in group psychotherapy and describes ways it can be cultivated to benefit the group.

Topics to be examined include: 1) Modern Analytic innovations in the treatment of pre-oedipal disorders; 2) methods to facilitate integration of new members and the prevention of premature termination; 3) the application of Modern Analytic theory and technique to short-term treatment; 4) the impact of gender on resistances and group process. Recent research on neuroscience and the impact of the interpersonal matrix of the group on neuroplasticity will be examined.

ONLINE WORKSHOP - Reimagining Countertransference Resistance: Including Cultural and Social Components of Leaders’ Resistances (OW11925) – 2.5 contact hours

At times, modern analysts will be challenged to embrace the emotional forces that brush up against our own histories. In this didactic and experiential workshop we will explore countertransference and resistances to countertransference as we discuss intersectional identities, including race, gender, social class, and language.

Through didactic and experiential learning, this workshop will describe and demonstrate how bridging, transient identification, and other joining techniques, are used to create and sustain a flow of connection between members that helps the group evolve.
