Ricochet of Trauma

A Hopeless Therapist and the Healing Potential of Exquisite Empathic Attunement

The Speaker:  


Ashley Warner, LCSW, BCD-P, received her training at the New York Institute for Psychoanalytic Self Psychology and is a supervising psychoanalyst and on faculty at the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Study Center, also in NYC. Academic presentations and publications include topics relative to trauma, creativity, and clinical process. Personal writing of acclaim includes her 2014 memoir, The Year After, an emotional collision of trauma and coming-of-age. Ashley is in private practice in Guilford, CT, and NYC. 


Summary:


Patients suffering from devastating personal events compounded by the complexities of developmental disturbance tax the inner resources of even the most seasoned analysts. The case of Theresa is no exception. This presentation follows the precarious treatment of a young woman whose unyielding disavowal of struggle insidiously evoked the therapist’s own trauma, resulting in a crippling countertransferential reaction that risked stalemate in the consulting room. Only Theresa’s tenacity and her therapist’s redoubled commitment to a painstaking empathic process provided the opportunity for a fortified sense of self which allowed healing to begin.

1. Identify complex trauma as a powerful force in the intersubjective field that risks inhibited and rigid response by both members of the analytic dyad.


2. Recognize repair of underlying self structure as primary to relational experience including dialog.

3. Describe the value of empathic function in the strengthening of self structure.
