SUMMARY:Cases in Conversation: Reading and Study Group
DESCRIPTION:Registration is closed for the study group \nThe Cases in Conversation Study Group is for clinicians who are interested in psychoanalytic ideas and their application to psychotherapy. The group will be facilitated by Jeanne Cunningham\, LCSW. \nIn this new study group\, we will read psychoanalytic cases and discuss how to work concretely with psychoanalytic concepts. Therapists with an analytic background as well as those who are brand new to psychoanalysis are encouraged to join us to explore what it means to work within a psychoanalytic frame of mind\, use of self\, and the evolution from classical to relational psychoanalysis. \nTogether\, we’ll read and discuss six short case studies from Dr. Beth I. Feldman’s 2025 book\, Case Studies in Relational Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis: If I Could Turn Back Time. Dr. Feldman’s accessible\, relational approach invites us to think deeply about the meaning of analytic work and how it unfolds in real therapy rooms. \nParticipants will also examine Feldman’s nuanced use of the analytic frame and self-disclosure\, enhancing their theoretical grasp of psychoanalysis and supporting reflection on how relational techniques might inform their own clinical practice. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDiscuss the core tenants of contemporary psychoanalysis and how to apply them to clinical practice\nDefine the analytic concepts used by Feldman\, including misattunements\, ruptures\, enactments and self-states\nExamine Feldman’s use of relational techniques such as self-revelation and evaluate their effectiveness\n\nThis is an in-person study group meeting on the following Sundays at 3624 Coliseum Street from 4pm-5pm Central Time: \nJanuary 11\, 2026 \nFebruary 8\, 2026 \nMarch 8\, 2026 \nApril 12\, 2026 \nMay 10\, 2026 \nJune 14\, 2026 \nJuly 12\, 2026 \nAttendance is free. Fee for semester-based CME credits: $50 NOBPC member / $75 non-member. Each session is a 1-hour CME offering.

SUMMARY:The I in You by Jeffry Luria\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Psychoanalytic Explorations is a series in which faculty members and students of the NOBPC\, as well as interested members of the community\, present and discuss issues of current concern to them. The focus will be on clinical practice\, theoretical challenges\, and non-clinical applications of psychoanalytic theory; all presentations are intended to deepen attendees’ ability to think psychoanalytically. Each session will begin with a presentation followed by questions and answers and open discussion\, with the intention of facilitating relaxed\, informal peer exchange. \nPsychologists\, Social Workers\, and Licensed Professional Counselors may also receive continuing education credit for this activity if their accredited associations or boards recognize CME credits. \nDiscussion begins at 11am Central Time at NOBPC or Zoom \nWe think about ourselves\, but how much do we think about our thinking about our selves? When we do\, what is the Self we think about? If I am thinking about myself\, who is the I and who is the Self? We will briefly outline the history of narcissism and the Self in western culture from biblical to present days. We will explore the pervasive narcissism of our culture and attempt to re-define the concepts of Self\, Narcissism and Well-Being. By redefining we may be more open to appreciating how these concepts inform and deepen our understanding of their influence on the dynamics of transference and countertransference. How much of transference and countertransference is based on the narcissistic processes of both analyst and patient? If so\, is the question below a serious one? Is the psychoanalytic relationship a therapeutically necessary narcissistic fever dream progressively disrupted by transient awakenings of the patient and analyst whose successful completion depends on an enduring awakening of both? \nDr. Jeffry Luria\, a clinical psychologist/psychoanalyst\, began practicing in 1975. He trained as a psychoanalyst at the Post Graduate Center for Mental Health in New York City and later served as a supervising psychoanalyst at two training institutes there. He is a member of the faculty of the New Orleans Birmingham Psychoanalytic Center He is working on a book entitled The I in You\, a slightly ego-centric stroll through Self and Narcissism in culture and clinical practice. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe the origin\, definition\, and role of Self in human experience and behavior and increase their awareness of the role of Self in human behavior\nExamine the social and cultural influences that reflect and exacerbate the role of Self in individuals\nExplain the role of Self in transference and countertransference and how it expands the efficacy of psychoanalytic treatment\n\nPlease join us at NOBPC or via Zoom. Participation is open to all. In-person space is limited so please register early. \nPlease click HERE for online registration.
