The 1060th Scientific Program Meeting:
“Sixty-three Year Follow-up of a Child Analysand”
(Note: Registration closes 11/8 at 4 PM.)
Tuesday, November 8, 2022
8:00 – 10:00 pm (EST)
Presenter: Gilbert Kliman, M.D.
Discussants: Judy Kantrowitz, Ph.D. and Miriam Steele, Ph.D.
A now 72-year-old former child analysand has kindly permitted us to view a 63-year video recorded follow-up with Dr. Kliman. He had been deeply traumatized, fragile, depressed, enuretic, encopretic, dissociated, fetishistic, dyslexic, socially isolated and thus overall profoundly disturbed emotionally and developmentally at age nine. Humor, warmth, perseverance and gratitude were nevertheless evident. His CGAS (Children’s Global Assessment Scale) of his early years can be estimated at 40. Several years of intensive child analysis including parent guidance appear to have turned his life course into a gradually improving and solid adult development. He seems to have never stopped strengthening his gains despite major object losses, financial distress and continuing interpersonal adversities with his childhood abuser. His current GAF (Global Assessment of Functioning) can be estimated as over 80. How this outcome happened will be the focus of this presentation. A link to the video will be shared with registrants via email and will be available for viewing from November 2 – 9, 2022.
2 Contact Hours. 2 CME/CE credits offered. See details below.

She is in private practice of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy in Brookline, MA.
Miriam Steele, Ph.D. is the Alfred J. and Monette C. Marrow Professor in Psychology and co-director of the Center for Attachment Research at the New School for Social Research. Dr. Steele bridges the world of psychoanalytic thinking and clinical practice with contemporary research in child development. She trained as a child analyst at the Anna Freud Centre London and received her Ph.D. from University College London. Her research began with the study of “Intergenerational Patterns of Attachment” which embodied one of the first prospective longitudinal studies incorporating the Adult Attachment Interview and Strange Situation protocols. This work was important in initiating the concept of reflective functioning and providing empirical data to demonstrate the importance of parental states of mind in the social and emotional development of their children with a longitudinal focus on their development into adulthood. Her current projects include studies exploring attachment and body representations across a range of individuals including mother-child dyads and individuals with physical disabilities, studies of children in foster care and adoption and child and adolescent global mental health.

1) articulate evidence of positive transference and positive countertransference persisting for six decades.
2) state a view the patient recalls of the role the child analyst played in his life.
