In this presentation, Dianne Elise, PhD, will be making use of a Winnicottian formulation of the analytic field to highlight the often unspoken, implicit erotic dimensions of our work. She puts forth the premise that psychoanalysis is an erotic project and proposes that a creative aesthetic can provide a clinical container for the engagement and exploration of erotic life within the analytic field of each treatment. An atmosphere of libidinal energy is seen as a crucial aspect in enlivening the intersubjective field.

What does it mean to be both a social critic and a practicing psychotherapist? In view of the social and political crises we face, this is surely one of our profession’s most pressing challenges. This talk draws on the early work of Erich Fromm, one of the twentieth century’s best known public intellectuals and least understood psychoanalysts. Fromm escaped Nazi Germany and was one of very few psychoanalysts to speak publicly about the dangers of fascism.
