(2024 recipient of the Fred Pine, Ph.D. Award for a Paper Contributing to Psychoanalytic Theory, Technique, or Development)
This presentation by Salman Akhtar, M.D. shall delineate the sources of self-loathing and the various dynamic factors involved in it. When self-loathing manifests itself in patients, clinicians often find themselves ill-equipped to treat this issue. In this presentation, Dr. Akhtar aims to address the lack of deeper understanding of why patients hate themselves. The understanding of the sources of self-loathing will help enhance the clinician’s empathy and attunement to this affliction. Additionally, Dr. Akhtar will highlight various therapeutic strategies for the amelioration of this malady.
1.5 Contact Hours. 1.5 CME/CE credits will be offered. See details below.
General Admission: $50
