SUMMARY:Film & Mind: Don’t Look Up
DESCRIPTION:“This administration has lost it’s f-ing mind and we are all going to die!” bellows a vein popping Leonardo DiCaprio. Don’t Look Up (2021) captures the dangerous emotional crosscurrents when human nature is confronted with existential terror. Astronomers — Dr. Randall Mindy (DiCaprio) and Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence)\, his doctoral student — discover a comet on a direct collision course with Earth. They carry their findings to the White House and what follows is not a disaster film\, but a savage psychological and sociological portrait of America’s collective response to existential threat. The public becomes divided – those who can “look up” and those who cannot. \nIn their quest to educate and inform the government and the world\, astronomers Mindy and Dibiasky tango with sex\, power\, denial\, distraction\, and defensive grandiosity. We have the opportunity\, if we can muster our own courage\, to consider the psychodynamics inherent in facing looming catastrophe.  \nPlease note: Participants are requested to watch the film before arriving. The session will be structured around guided clinical discussion rather than summary\, with facilitators and invited discussants drawing out the film’s psychoanalytic architecture in dialogue with the group.  \nPlease note:\nParticipants are requested to watch the film before arriving.

SUMMARY:Unlocking Minds: Dive Into The Racial Unconscious
DESCRIPTION:This half-day conference offers a psychoanalytic examination of racialization as it is lived\, felt\, and structured within psychic life.  \nRamya B. Iyer\, LCSW\, introduces societal racial introjection\, a proposed mechanism by which social racial logics become constitutive of psychic structure. Gabriel Ruiz\, LCPC\, explores racialized transference and countertransference in the treatment relationship\, and Molly Witten\, PhD\, extends these dynamics into supervision.

SUMMARY:A Slice of Resistance: A Masterclass for Intensive Psychotherapists
DESCRIPTION:In this masterclass for licensed therapists\, participants will actively review in fine detail a subtitled clinical video with in-depth discussion with Jon Frederickson and Thomas Brod. The video is edited from a single multi-hour consultation in which Jon Frederickson interviews an extraordinarily resistant patient. The case\, called “The Man Who Thought Therapy Was Bullshit\,” demonstrates advanced technique for managing high resistance and omnipotent defenses against characterological depression. Frederickson incorporates clinical insights of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) into his own psychodynamic technique. This course is built out of detailed discussion with audience-participants of the moment-to-moment choice points by the clinician. This course is limited to licensed professionals. \nJon Frederickson\, MSW is an internationally prominent psychotherapist\, author\, and master instructor specializing in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). He is best known for his award-winning books on dynamic therapy techniques\, his international teaching\, and his focus on deliberate practice in psychotherapy. He conducts extensive core training and supervision programs globally\, with teaching engagements spanning the U.S.\, Norway\, Italy\, Switzerland\, Poland\, Australia\, and India. He has written over 50 published papers and chapters\, including:  \nClinical Thinking in Psychotherapy: What It Is\, How It Works\, and Why and How to Teach It\nHealing Through Relating: A Skill-Building Book for Therapists\nCo-Creating Safety: Healing the Fragile Patient\nThe Lies We Tell Ourselves: How to Face the Truth\, Accept Yourself\, and Create a Better Life \nCo-Creating Change: Effective Dynamic Therapy Techniques (Winner of the 2014 British Medical Association Book Awards\, First Prize in Psychiatry)\nThomas Brod\, MD is senior faculty New Center for Psychoanalysis and former Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at UCLA Geffen School of Medicine.  \nHe coordinates the NCP Film & Mind series and the NCP Manifest Mind series.
