Advanced Seminar in Child and Adolescent Analysis:

“Outcome in Child and Adolescent Analysis”

Thursday, September 26, 2019

8:00 – 10:00 pm

Presenter: Theodore Fallon, M.D.

Psychoanalysis and especially child psychoanalysis has been criticized with little research and data to show its effectiveness, despite the decent body of literature that has amassed.  And yet, as practitioners with closer than front row seats, we are aware that we see, track and influence minds in process.  Reconciling these two perspectives is a significant challenge that psychoanalysis faces.  One approach is to consider our patients before and after treatment – the long term outcomes.

Theodore Fallon, Jr. will report on one effort that has been underway now for over 5 years to consider and gather data from children and their parents and families years after  completion of intensive psychoanalytic treatment.  This study continues to evolve and adjust its focus as we approach our 10 subject mark.  Dr. Fallon will consider some ways we have conceptualized this work, gathered and reviewed our data, and made some preliminary results and conclusions.

2 CME/ CE credits offered. 

Theodore Fallon Jr. is a child supervising analyst at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia, Clinical Associate Professor at the Drexel University College of Medicine, teaches and supervises at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Washington, D.C., and has had a rural psychoanalytic practice west of Philadelphia for 20 years.  He has been active in research for over 40 years and involved in the child analysis follow-up study now for three years. In the past, he has worked as an infectious disease specialist in AIDS research, an epidemiologist and an internal medicine physician.
