Panel Presentation Discussing a Clinical Vignette
Key Figures: Freud, Klein, Mitchell & Aron
Join us for the final culmination of our two-year Roots & Branches program. We will have a panel presentation in which a clinical vignette is discussed from the vantage point of different psychoanalytic theories, including some of those presented throughout the two-year program. This is an opportunity to observe clinical theory being put into practice and a chance to bring into higher contrast the similarities and differences between the different psychoanalytic orientations. Each of our panelists will share their personal connection to their chosen theoretical orientation before demonstrating how they view a clinical example through their preferred theoretical lens. Attendees will see, in this final session, several depth psychology theories side-by-side and the clinical implications of each.
