Radical ethics, a philosophical position recognizing the priority of the other over the ego, specifically concerns the other’s suffering. It refuses to see the other as an instance of a category or concept, and therefor holds immense significance for workers in any mental health profession. But it can seem to deny, or minimize the needs of these workers, or of any individual’s needs in the face of the other’s suffering, and thus comes up against undeniable human limitations. It also raises the psychoanalytic problem of masochism.

Clinical suicide risk assessment is often conducted using standardized assessment measures that fail to integrate contemporary theories and empirical findings, especially those pertaining the importance of analyzing the timing and contextual factors affecting suicide risk. This presentation supports a more nuanced understanding of patient-centered, ecologically valid methods of assessing risk for suicide in clinical populations, enabling attendees to develop greater precision and sensitivity in their risk assessment and intervention approaches.

In these last few years we have witnessed unprecedented upheaval in the areas of politics, social justice, the natural world, and public health. To help our patients and to support our practices, communities and the field as a whole, it is vitally important to understand what people are looking for in mental health treatment, and how they think and feel about the therapies we offer. It’s also crucial that public awareness and appreciation of therapies of depth, insight, and relationship improve.

All clinicians face the problem of working with patients whose treatments are not going well and who are not making progress. Clinicians often label these patients as "difficult" or "treatment resistant." This presentation addresses clinicians' own contributions to this experience, including the role of reductionist biomedical perspectives that do not match evolving evidence. The presentation also summarizes psychodynamic principles that may improve outcomes and the role of intermediate levels of care in treating some of these patients.

In the last 25 years suicide has increased by 30% in the US, while a growing crisis in mental health is recognized in the post-pandemic world. Broadening training of clinicians to treat suicidal patients is an appropriate response. Although several manualized behavioral and psychodynamic therapies have been found to be efficacious in treatment of suicidal and self-destructive borderline patients, few clinicians achieve proficiency in even one of these.

Daniel Shaw, LCSW, presents a way of understanding the traumatic impact of narcissism as it is engendered developmentally, and as it is enacted relationally. Focusing on the dynamics of narcissism in interpersonal relations, Shaw describes the relational system of what he terms the 'traumatizing narcissist' as a system of subjugation–the objectification of one person in a relationship as the means of enforcing the dominance of the subjectivity of the other.
