About the Presentation

The body/mind relationship of patient and therapist is receiving a new focus in psychodynamic clinical work in the 21st Century. This lecture will address the bodily intensities and sensations that come alive within the consulting room of the novice to the most experienced clinician that may go unrecognized, unmetabolized, and unprocessed. Patients often speak with and about their bodies, and the clinician who pays attention to these communications and those emanating from within our own body has an additional resource to understand what may be transpiring within the dyad. Because the analyst’s somatic and/or embodied countertransference reactions can also alert us to what is unconsciously split off, withheld, or burdensome that we may be holding for our patient, attention will be given to the often-neglected issue of the clinician’s self-care.

Learning Objectives

1. Demonstrate the importance of working with one’s bodily reactions as one guide in a therapeutic process
2. Recognize and use somatic/embodied countertransference reactions more effectively
3. Use 2 – 3 conceptual tools to facilitate, communicate, and understand unconscious communications that can become a source of transformation for patients.
