Race and Psychoanalysis

For more than 400 years, race has profoundly influenced interactions between White and Black people in the United States.  Based on race, all social institutions in our country treat people differently from birth.  This has a considerable impact on personality development.  As race pushes into the forefront of American discourse, it is apparent that psychoanalysts and psychotherapists must engage with this issue in their clinical work. Training Institute For Mental Health is offering a Fall Continuing Education Series    RACE, IDENTITY, JUSTICE AND  PSYCHOANALYSIS Topics will probably include: racial and mixed race identity; social activism, justice and policing; gender and sexual orientation; intergenerational trauma.   The program will begin with a panel discussion on 10/16.  The panel will be the first session of all 3 course options below. Each course will include one or more case presentations.   Course A consists of the 10/16 Panel plus 1 of 3 clinical sessions;  (6 CEUs) Course B consists of the 10/16 Panel plus 2 of 3 clinical sessions;  (9 CEUs) Course C consists of the 10/16 Panel plus 3 clinical sessions;  (12 CEUs)   All three clinical sessions will include a case presentation by a TIMH candidate. Each case will be discussed by a highly seasoned psychoanalyst who was specifically selected for this program based on her/his considerable experience/expertise with this issue.   October 16: PANEL DISCUSSION  1:30 – 4:3OPM Panelists: Jama Adams, PhD, Janice Bennett, PhD, Cheryl Thompson, PhD, Kirkland Vaughans, PhD Moderator:  Susan Spieler, PsyD   October 23, CASE PRESENTATION 1 1:30 – 4:30PM Case Presenter:  Richard Handibode, LMSW Discussant:  Kirkland Vaughans, PhD Moderator:  Susan Spieler, PsyD   October 30: CASE PRESENTATION 2 1:30 – 4:30PM Case Presenter: Vivian Ohtake-Urizar, LMSW Discussant:  Cheryl Thompson, PhD Moderator:  Susan Spieler, PsyD   November 6: CASE PRESENTATION 3 1:30 – 4:30PM Case Presenter:  Alcia Peterkin, LMSW Discussant:  Anton Hart, PhD Moderator:  Susan Spieler, PsyD REGISTRATION                            Students*   Professionals Course A        $100          $150 Course B         $125          $180 Course C        $150          $210 ____ Panel Only * If you are a graduate student, please mail documentation of your current student status with payment.
