CJC Psychoanalytic Institute

PSYCHOANALYTIC COURSE OUTLINE:
(Subject to Change)

FOURTH YEAR COURSES

Psychoanalytic Theory: Advanced

In the context of experience with case material, candidates will discuss concepts and techniques as reflected in the psychoanalytic process. The aim of the course is to help the candidate to synthesize and interpret the psychoanalytic process. Particular attention will be given to the role of gender issues in treatment.

Psychoanalytic Technique: Special Issues and Modification

This course explores the application of psychoanalysis to unusual situations that may arise in the course of psychoanalytic treatment. Topics to be covered include negative therapeutic reaction, severe acting out, pregnancy in the analyst or analysand, silence, sleepiness, and drowsiness, illness, extra analytic contacts, etc.

Psychoanalytic Technique: Gender Issues in Treatment

Psychoanalysis is increasingly informed by evolving ideas about gender. This course will focus on how gender influences technique, transference paradigms and counter transference responses. How the gender of the analyst influences the scope and nature of practice will serve as the framework for the course.

Psychoanalytic Technique: Criteria and Process of Termination

This course deals with the last phase of the analytic process. It covers the changing criteria during the last sixty years, readiness to terminate and the desirable positive changes, how to facilitate and initiate termination, and how and when to get a termination date. Goals that are discussed include the fate of the transference neurosis, the fate of the transference during and after termination; desirable remission of symptoms; recurrence of symptoms during and after termination; desirable structural changes in ego, super ego and object relationships; working through separation. The differences between planned termination and unexpected termination are covered.
