Advanced Seminar in Child and Adolescent Analysis:

“Three Men and a Pre-Teen: Repairing a Wandering Latency of Loss”

Thursday, June 3, 2021

8:00 – 10:00 pm (EST)

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

Presenter: David Goldenberg, M.D.

Discussant: Sydney Anderson, Ph.D.

More and more we are meeting adolescents with a multitude of issues, resulting in clinical challenges. K., a 14 year old boy, has a history of biological trauma (born to a substance-addicted mother), physical trauma (violent household), resulting family separation, subsequent multiple foster home placements, diagnosis and treatment of a space-occupying brain tumor, and finally adoption and relocation. K. self-identifies as gay. He was adopted by a gay male couple. This circumstance, increasingly common, although still novel, together with the above mentioned factors, prompts psychoanalytic conceptualization of its influence on K.’s development while also considering the roles of temperament, aggression and libido. Clinical material will be presented to elucidate how these issues play out – literally and metaphorically – in the often technically challenging treatment which, because of the pandemic was carried out remotely. Dr. Sydney Anderson will discuss the presentation with a special focus on the question of suitability for analytic treatment versus supportive treatment.

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