Presenter: Tim Rice, M.D.

Dr. Rice will present material from the opening stage of psychoanalytic work with a seventeen-year-old biracial girl.  Themes in the material include the creation of a space for the patient to develop a consolidated identity as distinct from her parents and younger brother. Challenges to be presented include the patient’s difficulties in identifying with her racially-mixed peer group and in overcoming the ripples of her father’s idealizations of her white male analyst as they appear within the individual work.

2 CME/CE credits offered.
