Presenter: Holly Martin
Holly Martin will present a clinical paper which describes the intensive psychotherapy of a latency-aged foster child, attending to the way in which sexual trauma disrupts the development of symbolic functioning. Dissociative processes and their impact upon internal representation will be considered, as the presenter discusses the evolution of transference and countertransference phenomena over the course of this two-year treatment. Highlighting the adaptations in technique that were used to meet the child at her level of functioning, the presenter will trace her patient’s movement towards a capacity to symbolise.
2 CME/CE credits will be offered.
Holly Martin is a recently qualified Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist, trained at IPCAPA, who works within both the Child Psychotherapy Team at the Anna Freud Centre and CAMHS. Holly has previously worked in inpatient settings including psychiatric intensive care with young people and adults with dual diagnosis. Her doctoral research explores the manifestations and correlates of dissociation amongst foster children in middle childhood.

Oberndorf, “Development of Psychoanalysis in America” on the occasion of the A.A. Brill Memorial meeting on March 29, 1949.
