Free zoom event with Veronica D. Abney, Ph.D.: This paper presents a description of the analysis of an African-American patient with Dissociative Identity Disorder. It will focus primarily on one year of the analysis when the transference was extremely negative resulting in the analyst moving from a very empathic and loving countertransference position to feeling hatred for the patient. Examples of rupture and repair in the transference will be presented. The paper will also look at issues related to culture that emerged in this analysis, despite the analyst and analysand having similar cultural backgrounds.
