“Just Change the Channel”

and other Words of Misadvise:

Collective Trauma, Intimacy, and the Psychotherapist’s Vulnerability

DAY, MONTH xx, 9:00am—12:00 p.m CST

Via ZOOM

In this workshop via Zoom, Dr. Steven Kuchuck will draw on his previous writing about the analyst’s subjectivity and the varied ways in which this impacts—and is impacted by-- our clinical work. What happens when the therapist and patient, or multiple patients, are experiencing the same challenges, crisis or trauma at the exact same time? How do we continue to work within the transitional space when that collapses and the real world comes rushing in? Theory and an extended case example of working with a long-term patient during the Covid-19 pandemic will be presented. Ample time will be allotted for Q and A and discussion.

Steven Kuchuck, DSW, is Co-Editor; Routledge Relational Perspectives Book Series, President of the International Association for Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (IARPP), Senior Consulting Editor (formerly Editor-in-Chief) of Psychoanalytic Perspectives, and faculty at NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, NIP National Training Program, The Stephen Mitchell Relational Study Center, and other institutes. His newest book, The Relational Revolution in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy: Central Concepts and Current Trends is being published by Confer Books. In 2015 and 2016 he won the Gradiva Award for best psychoanalytic book: Clinical Implications of the Psychoanalyst’s Life Experience: When the Personal Becomes Professional and The Legacy of Sandor Ferenczi: From Ghost to Ancestor (co-edited with Adrienne Harris).
