Psychoanalytic Approaches to Race, Multiracial Identities, and Racial Passing by Jessica Chavez, PhD (Psychoanalytic Explorations)

Participants will be introduced to existing approaches to race in psychoanalysis. In order to address a dearth of psychoanalytic theorizing on multiracial identities and experiences of racial passing, Dr. Chavez will use an interdisciplinary lens to consider these topics while integrating case material and personal reflections and suggest new directions for conceptualizing work with patients from multiracial backgrounds and with those who experience racial passing.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify current psychoanalytic and interdisciplinary scholarship on racial identity, multiracial identity, and racial passing
• Understand how multiracial identity and racial passing relate to cultural competency
• Apply existing scholarship and research on racial identity, multiracial identity, and racial passing to clinical practice and self-reflection
