Nancy McWilliams: Seminar 1

Supervision and Psychoanalytic Institutes

Seminar Description:

This seminar will focus on supervision and consultation processes in psychoanalytic institutes. We will look at both the gratifications and the challenges of supervising candidates in analytic institutes, addressing dynamics involving boundaries, regressive pulls, issues of psychoanalytic identity, idealization and devaluation, splitting, fears about exposure, and systemic pressures that may compromise patient care. In the context of current controversies about psychoanalytic training, it depicts some complications of supervising at this level in the context of what is often an enmeshed professional community.
