In this presentation, Dr. Slochower reflects on what is most often left unspoken and unexamined in our field.  Dr. Slochower illustrates the ways our analytic ideal has influenced us in both positive and negative ways. Revisiting her own thinking about relational holding, analytic breaches, and a range of existential issues, she invites us to do the same.
