SUMMARY:Gender Dysphoria as Complicated Terrain for Kids\, Parents\, and Clinicians
DESCRIPTION:2 CE Hours available to NYS LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, Psychologists and PsyDs\nBeginning with an exploration of the nature of gender as seen through the respective lenses of psychoanalysis\, science and culture\, Dr. Schwartz will offer a psychodynamic understanding of gender dysphoria and transgender identity. He will carefully examine the discourse underlying the gender-affirmative approach to gender dysphoria and highlight what he views as some of the significant clinical considerations associated with that model. Dr. Schwartz will conclude with an exploration of three cultural trends which he sees as the underexamined sources of the current prominence of gender dysphoria and transgender identity. These are: 1)the decline of optimism and hope\, 2) the idealization of technology and 3) the upsurge of undifferentiated information. \nDavid Schwartz\, PhD is a psychologist and psychoanalyst in Westchester County. He received his doctorate in psychology from the City University of New York and his certificate in psychoanalysis from the Westchester Center for the Study of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. He has been writing about gender\, sexuality and psychoanalysis for the past thirty-five years.

SUMMARY:Psychotherapists Working in Public Spaces\, with Maria Nardone\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:When she was an early career psychologist\, Dr. Nardone was asked to provide psychological testimony for a man facing deportation which would have deeply and negatively affected his U.S. citizen family. Subsequent cases included green card holders who committed crimes and were rehabilitated\, people seeking asylum\, and undocumented parents with U.S. citizen children. These experiences ignited a passion that continues to the present. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Nardone will reflect on her experiences working in these and other public spaces. She will discuss what she has learned about the trauma experienced by immigrants and refugees\, and in immigrant communities. Deporting undocumented parents can create lasting harm for their American citizen children\, including economic turmoil\, psychic scarring\, and reduced scholastic performance. She will describe her work with the Appleseed Network\, a non-profit network of 18 public interest justice centers in the US and Mexico. \nMaria Nardone\, Ph.D.\, Director of Technology and Global Learning; Former Director of the Online Interpersonal Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program for Russian Speakers; Former Chair\, Council of Fellows\, and Founding member and Former Director of the Center for Public Mental Health at the William Alanson White Institute\, where she is Faculty Instructor and Supervisor.

SUMMARY:Being Black in the Therapy Room — A Panel Discussion Among Five Clinicians
DESCRIPTION:A Panel Discussion Among Five Clinicians \nModerated by Diana Hope Baker\, LCSW \n2 CE Hours available for\nNY Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, PHDs\, PSYDs \nThis panel discussion aims to explore the multifaceted experiences of being Black in the therapy room. The discussion will engage both Black and White therapists in the audience and cover key topics such as countertransference\, racism\, cultural norms\, and systemic issues within the psychological field. \nThe discussion will explore issues of race in working with Black clients and the impact of race on Black clinicians. We believe that this panel discussion will provide a valuable platform for exploring these important issues and promoting a deeper understanding of the experiences of Black individuals in therapy. \nDiana Hope Baker\, LCSW is a Holistic Social Worker. A native of NY and a transplant to Georgia\, Diana obtained her MSW in 2004 from the University of Central Florida with a certificate in Addictions. In addition to her graduate training Diana has post graduate certificates in Clinical Supervision\, Psychodynamic Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy\, and Psychodynamic Couples Therapy. Diana’s personal and professional journey has led her to her most recent certifications as a holistic trauma therapist\, a Level I sound healer\, Level II Reiki Practitioner\, Level I Ifs therapist\, and Certified Yoga Teacher-500. Diana is the Suicide Prevention Coordinator at the Dublin\, Georgia VA and the owner of Hope Psychotherapy which focuses on holistic healing of women with anxiety\, PTSD\, infertility and race related stressors. Diana has also contributed to Essence Magazine as a wellness practitioner. Diana’s passions include traveling and providing community lectures and wellness events focused on the integration of holistic practices and mental health and racial trauma. Diana has a niece and nephews and two bonus children. Panel member bios to follow. \nCONTINUING EDUCATION – 2 CE HOURS\nTeaching Method: Seminar-style Zoom presentation\nLearning Objectives: \nAfter this presentation participants will be able to: \n1. Understand the complexities of countertransference in therapeutic relationships involving Black clients\, including how therapists’ own racial biases and cultural backgrounds can impact the therapeutic process.\n2. Explore the manifestations of racism within the therapy room\, including microaggressions\, stereotypes\, and power dynamics\, and develop strategies for effectively addressing and dismantling these barriers to therapeutic progress.\n3. Examine the influence of cultural norms and systemic issues on the mental health and well-being of Black individuals\, and identify ways in which therapists can create culturally competent and affirming spaces for their Black clients to facilitate healing and growth.

SUMMARY:The Evolving Self-Narrative Of An Incest Survivor
DESCRIPTION:2 CE Hours available for\nNY Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, PHDs\, PSYDs \nLIMITED TO 20 PARTICIPANTS!To allow for depth of clinical discussion and a true sense of our formal coursework\, participation will be capped at 20 therapists. \nThe therapeutic relationship with a survivor of incest is delicate and frightening for both patient and therapist. Together my patient and I embarked on a journey of trust and collaboration to help her better manage self-destructive behaviors stemming from her past wounds. We tried multiple therapeutic methods until we came upon Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy (DNMS)\, which allows trauma to be processed and addressed in a more gentle manner. This case presentation will illustrate her courageous effort to face and to change the self-narrative of being someone who had believed she was “dirty” and “deserved to be punished” to a person worthy of protection and nurturance. \nDeborah Cassidy-Charron earned a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University where she completed internships at Bronx Children’s Hospital and the Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services and wrote a dissertation on the Rorschach. She completed the Advanced Psychoanalytic Training Program at WCSPP in 2019 and is currently working in private practice with adults in Armonk\, NY\, specializing in trauma cases\, ADHD\, and aging.

SUMMARY:Understanding and Using the Traumatic Narcissism Theory
DESCRIPTION:Since the publication of his 2014 book\, Traumatic Narcissism: Relational Systems of Subjugation\, Daniel Shaw has been refining and updating the psychological profile of the traumatizing narcissist\, specifically for the purpose of helping victims of narcissistic abuse inflicted by parents\, romantic partners or others. Many patients have difficulty articulating what happens to them in these relationships\, and clinicians often miss the important clues that indicate this type of relational abuse. In this presentation\, Shaw outlines the most prominent controlling behaviors of the traumatizing narcissist\, how they impact his or her victims\, and the specific ways that these patients can be helped to restore their critical thinking\, their self-esteem\, and their freedom from subjugation. \nPresenter \nDaniel Shaw\, LCSW\, is an author\, teacher and psychotherapist in private practice in New York City and Nyack\, NY. Integrating contemporary trauma theories with psychoanalytic work\, Shaw works internationally with survivors of narcissistic abuse as well as cult survivors\, and consults to other mental health professionals individually and in groups. www.danielshawlcsw.com. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2 CE HOURS available for:\nNY Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, PHDs\, PSYDs\nCT Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LMFTs\, LPCs and Licensed Psychologists \nTeaching Method: Lecture\, Discussion and Q & A.\nLearning Objectives:\nParticipants will be able to:\n1. identify the most prominent behaviors of the traumatizing narcissist.\n2. formulate treatment goals for victims of narcissistic abuse suffering from Complex-PTSD.\n3. utilize psychoeducation about the traumatic narcissism theory to help patients consolidate therapeutic gains. \nA completed survey must be submitted after the meeting for 2 CE hours. \nWho should attend: Psychiatrists\, psychologists\, social workers\, psychoanalysts\, other mental health professionals\, nurses\, graduate students.

SUMMARY:Erich Fromm: A Contemporary Introduction
DESCRIPTION:CE CREDITS AVAILABLE FOR NYS PRACTITIONERS. \nThis webinar is live\, real-time and interactive. \nFrom our speaker Sandra Buechler: Erich Fromm\, who was born in 1900\, continues to inspire me in 2024. His humanistic insights are highly relevant to the clinical and societal challenges we face today. In this talk\, I explore Fromm’s concepts of the “pathology of normalcy\,” paradox in treatment\, productive and non-productive orientations\, and becoming a “physician of the soul\,” among other concepts. I express why Fromm has a special place in my own “internal chorus” of wise voices I can “consult” in moments of need. \nSandra Buechler\, PhD is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the William Alanson White Institute. She is the author of Clinical Values: Emotions that Guide Psychoanalytic Treatment (Analytic Press\, 2004)\, Making a Difference in Patients’Lives (Routledge\, 2008)\, which won the Gradiva award\, Still Practicing: The Heartaches and Joys of a Clinical Career (Routledge\, 2012)\, Understanding and Treating Patients in Clinical Psychoanalysis: Lessons from Literature (Routledge\, 2015)\, Psychoanalytic Reflections: Training and Practice (IPBooks\, 2017)\,Psychoanalytic Approaches to Problems in Living (Routledge\, 2019)\, Poetic Dialogues (IPBooks\, 2021)\, and Erich Fromm: A Contemporary Introduction(Routledge\, 2024).

SUMMARY:Erotophobia: Laplanche\, Queer Theory & Psychoanalysis
DESCRIPTION:2 CE HOURS available for:\nNY Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, PHDs\, PSYDs\nCT Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LMFTs\, LPCs and Licensed Psychologists  \nIn contemporary psychoanalysis\, it has become popular to accuse the clinical field of hating sex\, hating pleasure\, and being generally – both in its theory and in its techniques – hostile and averse to sex and sexuality. Although this isn’t a particularly new argument – French psychoanalysis has been accusing American psychoanalysis of this in one form or another for the past seventy-five years – the argument has taken on new momentum with the popularization of queer theory\, and alongside recent attempts to radicalize psychoanalytic theory and practice. In this presentation\, I will draw on Laplanche to challenge this popular argument by showing that it depends on a simplistic version of queer theory that totally misrecognizes its radical potential. In so doing\, I will demonstrate that to the extent we are afraid of sexuality it may have less to do with sensational\, exotic or shattering sex\, but sexuality in relation to otherness\, desire that thrusts and propels us toward others in ways we can’t comprehend and can’t quite escape. I elaborate Laplanche’s account of “enlarged sexuality” to elaborate “erotophobia” as the denial of enlarged sexuality. \nPresenter: \n \nGila Ashtor\, PhD\, LP is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychoanalysis at Columbia University as well as a faculty member of the Columbia Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. She is on the Faculty at New York University’s Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy\, and at IPTAR. She is the author of three books\, Homo Psyche: On Queer Theory and Erotophobia (Fordham UP\, 2021)\, Exigent Psychoanalysis: The Interventions of Jean Laplanche (Routledge\, 2021) and Aural History (Punctum\, 2020). Her primary areas of academic and clinical expertise include identity\, trauma and sexuality. She is in private practice in New York City. \nModerator \nSylvia Steinert\, LCSW is the current co-Executive Director of WCSPP and Faculty\, WCSPP. Steinert holds certificates in psychoanalysis and supervision from WCSPP. She is in private practice in Ridgefield\, CT.

SUMMARY:Annual Conference: Moral Development: Implications for Clinical Work with Children and Parents
DESCRIPTION:Continuing Education\n4 CE credits for most NY and CT Licenses \nAbout \nThis conference invites reflection upon the cultivation of morality within\ntoday’s families often challenged by an exclusive emphasis on individual development\,\nthe weakening of binding institutions\, and the influence of the Internet. How can clinicians\nhelp parents hold in mind the importance of moral development alongside their goals\nand good wishes for their children’s future? How can they help parents define and\nintegrate values that support the well-being of their own families and society? Through\npresentations and discussions\, we will delve into these timely and urgent questions. \nRichard Weissbourd\, PhD\nConcerns regarding the deleterious impact of contemporary culture influence parents\nand educators to focus intensely on the well-being and achievements of children.\nToo much preoccupation with these two aspects of individual success—and the\nconstant praising of children that goes with it—can undermine children’s capacity\nto care for others and their investment in the common good. Further\, concentrating\nso much on achievement and happiness risks making kids not only less caring\, but\nironically\, less happy and consequently less likely to achieve at high levels. In the\ncurrent socio-political climate\, where tolerance and empathy seem to be in short\nsupply\, it is more important than ever to help children develop concern for others.\nThis talk will explore these current trends and help clinicians working with families\nunderstand these challenging dilemmas. \nKen Barish\, PhD\nIn this talk\, Dr. Barish will discuss Dr. Weissbourd’s ideas on moral development in\nchildren\, highlighting areas of agreement and disagreement. The discussion will focus\non how our current culture of individual achievement erodes children’s capacity for\nempathy and the importance of helping others. Dr. Barish will offer recommendations to\ntherapists on how we can most effectively immunize our children and teens against the\nemotional pathogens of loneliness and shame\, help promote constructive engagement\nin their communities\, and foster a spirit of generosity and kindness toward others. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speakers \nRichard Weissbourd\, PhD\, is a Senior Lecturer at the Harvard\nGraduate School of Education\, and he also teaches at the Kennedy\nSchool of Government. His work focuses on moral development\,\nmeaning and purpose\, mental health challenges among teens and\nyoung adults and effective schools and services for children facing\nrisks. He directs the Making Caring Common Project\, a national\neffort to make moral and social development priorities in child-raising\nand provide strategies to schools and parents for promoting com-\nmitment moral and social capacities. He leads an initiative to reform\ncollege admissions\, Turning the Tide\, which seeks to elevate ethical\ncharacter\, reduce excessive achievement pressure and increase\nequity and access in the college admissions process. Weissbourd\nis the author of The Vulnerable Child: What Really Hurts America’s\nChildren and What We Can Do About It (Addison-Wesley\, 1996)\,\nnamed by the American School Board Journal as one of the top 10\neducation books of all time. His most recent book\, The Parents We\nMean to Be: How Well-Intentioned Adults Undermine Children’s\nMoral and Emotional Development (Houghton Mifflin 2009) was\nnamed by The New Yorker as one of the top 24 books of 2009. \nKen Barish PhD\, is a graduate and faculty member of the Westchester\nCenter for the Study of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. He is\nalso on the faculty of the William Alanson White Institute Child and\nAdolescent Psychotherapy Training Program\, Clinical Professor of\nPsychology at Weill – Cornell Medical College\, and Visiting Professor\,\nTongji Medical College in Wuhan\, China.

SUMMARY:Conflict in Divorce: Helping Parents Protect Children’s Innocence
DESCRIPTION:2 CE HOURS\nNY Practitioners – LCSWs\, LMSWs\, LPs\, LMFTs\, LMHCs\, LCATs\, PHDs\, PSYDs \nThis interactive training will present an overview of the psychological impact of divorce on parents and children. We will examine how divorce can go wrong and what parents and clinicians can do to significantly improve the lot of children during the process. \nThe Problem: In every divorce there is a leave-er and a leave-ee. One initiates and one is left; it’s asymmetrical and painful. Also\, by definition\, divorce is a failed marriage\, so it’s no surprise that the original marital struggles get played out – and amplified. Anger is accentuated\, blaming abounds and fear undermines the project. But\, since the goal of a divorce is to separate and build a new life\, an alternative narrative is required\, especially if there are children involved. \nPresenter \nMark Banschick\, MD is the co-founder of The Katonah Study Group for Integrative Medicine\, now in its 25th year. Dr. Banschick completed a residency in Psychiatry at Georgetown University and a Child Fellowship at New York-Presbyterian Medical Center. He is a contributor to Psychology Today with sixteen million readers to date – and author of The Intelligent Divorce book series. Recently\, Mark co-founded Alums for Campus Fairness\, promoting healthy dialogue on college campuses\, with over 50\,000 members representing 75 colleges. Dr. Banschick works with children and adults in private practice in Stamford\, CT.
