LECTURE DETAILS

Description: This lecture is for all mental health professionals. Until Covid upended the psychoanalytic frame as we knew it, most of us assumed that the therapeutic process required that analysts’ and patients’ bodies occupy the same physical space. While Covid forced us to abandon these assumptions, we anticipated, even yearned for the day when we could return to in-person work. But times have changed. Today, many of us have chosen to continue practicing remotely for reasons that are not related to fears of exposure. Many have no plan to return. Why? What dynamics--personal and intersubjective--underlie our decision to remain remote? This presentation explores our new relationship to remote work and the implications of staying online for ourselves, our patients, and for the field.

CME Objectives (1.5 CME Credits Available):

  1. Describe several external and internal (often unconscious) pressures on analysts to incorporate screens into treatment.
  2. Asses the clinical impact of screens on treatment in an individualized way.
  3. Assess how their own vulnerabilities and unconscious fears may contribute to how they use screens in conducting treatment.
