Speaker: Deborah Farnsworth: An intensive reading group on Fred Busch’s book, Creating a Psychoanalytic Mind. Busch, an influential ego psychologist, writes complex psychoanalytic ideas in an unusually clear, usable way. This seminar cultivates a Busch-informed clinical stance and technique, with close attention to reverie, countertransference as an instrument, timing of interpretation, symbolization, working through trauma and splitting, and fostering analytic creativity and ethical presence. Ideal for clinicians and training, psychoanalytic candidates, advanced psychotherapy trainees, early-career therapists, and clinical graduate students.
