Ruptures and Crises in Termination
Jill Salberg, PhD.
2 CE HOURS AVAILABLE FOR MOST NYS PRACTITIONERS
The difficulties involved in ending treatment are complex and can present challenges and possibilities for analyst, patient and the therapeutic dyad. It is no surprise that a variety of crises can arise when ending a treatment. When the history of the patient includes complex trauma involving parental neglect, sexual abuse and alcoholism, the ending process is especially ripe for enactments. I will be presenting a case with a long-term analytic patient, where a crisis occurred which stalled our ending. Ironically, it was when we began our termination phase that the enactment occurred, revealing further work that needed to be explored. This challenge of not being able to end while ending demonstrates how rich a crisis around ending can be.
