Advanced Seminar in Child and Adolescent Analysis:

“How Our Mind Becomes Racialized Across the Developmental Cycle: Locating Our Cultural Experience”

Thursday, September 30, 2021

7:30 – 9:30 pm (EST)

Please note this meeting will be held virtually on ZOOM. Registrants will receive ZOOM link.

Presenter: Beverly J. Stoute, M.D.

 

Differences in the psychosocial construction of Black and White subjectivity impact the therapeutic encounter, for analyst and patient alike, but how do we come to understand these differences? Are there universal ways we come to recognize racial differences, and what developmental experiences impact how racial attitudes develop? How do we construct the intrapsychic working models that guide us as we evolve from childhood through adolescence into adulthood?
The cross-cultural dynamics of racial ethnic socialization has been a growing area of recent research inquiry. The developmental and psychoanalytic integration of the cross-cultural dynamics of racial ethnic socialization permits a theoretical formulation of the influence of culture on the intrapsychic world of the individual. Clinical case examples from psychoanalytic work with patients of varying ethnic backgrounds will highlight how the analyst, using this theoretical frame, can facilitate therapeutic engagement if race and ethnicity are seen as multidimensional and rich entry points for intrapsychic exploration on both sides of the dyad. The question is posed and explored: How does our mind become racialized?

2 Contact Hours. 2 CME/ CE credits will be offered. See details below.

 

Beverly J. Stoute, M.D., a Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist and Psychoanalyst, serves as the President of the Atlanta Psychoanalytic Society, Co-Chair of the Holmes Commission on Racial Equality in the American Psychoanalytic Association, as a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Emory University Psychoanalytic Institute; as a Child and Adolescent Supervising Analyst and graduate of The New York Psychoanalytic Institute, and as a Fellow (Training and Supervising Analyst) of the Institute for Psychoanalytic Research and Training (IPTAR). Dr. Stoute teaches on the faculties of multiple training programs including the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences of the Emory University School of Medicine and the Morehouse School of Medicine Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Program. She serves on the editorial boards of The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child and the Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, on the Advisory Council of the Harlem Family Institute and is a founding member of Black Psychoanalysts Speak. Among her many publications is her recent theoretical paper entitled “Black Rage: A Psychic Adaptation to the Trauma of Oppression” published in the Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association — touted as an innovative perspective on racial trauma and the psychology of oppression that will change classical theoretical formulations in the field. Chosen to speak on the topic of racism and social justice from a psychoanalytic perspective, Dr. Stoute was one of six psychoanalysts interviewed in the documentary in the Freud and the Pandemic exhibit at the Freud Museum in London this year. Her upcoming book, co-edited with Michael Slevin, MSW, The Trauma of Racism: Lessons from the Therapeutic Encounter, is due out in early 2022. She is an internationally recognized speaker, author, and organizational consultant on issues of race, racism, diversity, the development of race awareness and racial ethnic socialization, multicultural perspectives in teaching development, and psychoanalytic applications in the treatment of children and adolescents with serious mood disorders, anxiety disorders and behavioral problems. She is in full-time private practice in Atlanta, GA.

 

Educational Objectives: Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

1. Identify nodal points in the evolution of race awareness and the development of racialized thinking from childhood through adolescence into adulthood.

2.  Identify subtle ways that developmental differences in racial and ethnic socialization based on racial social identity impact the therapeutic relationship.

3. Identify the developmental factors that impact the clinician’s ability or inability to recognize and discuss race and racial dynamics in the clinical situation.
