The purpose of this talk is to provide the audience with a review of psychotherapy research over the past century. Instead of just presenting a listing of studies, a case will be made that this information needs to be considered within larger contexts. The “need” for psychotherapy research emerged as a confluence of psychology in early adolescence, professional politics, and the health care industry.

In psychoanalytic psychotherapy, the frame of the treatment, provides a setting and container that is negotiated at the outset of treatment and is aimed at facilitating therapeutic engagement that is ethical, allows for a treatment process to emerge and be examined, and becomes a site of action and examination for both therapist and patient. In this lecture, the most concrete and basic elements of why a negotiated frame is essential to the work of psychoanalytic psychotherapy and the basic steps to think about in negotiating a flexible therapeutic frame for treatment are reviewed.

This is a sixty minute presentation that will include opportunities for questions and discussion in the large group of conference attendees. This presentation addresses the scholarly literature and clinical experience relating to clinicians’ experience of countertransference, particularly in working with patients with complex treatment histories. Many clinicians struggle to understand and manage strong feelings generated in therapeutic work.

Severely disturbed patients often show bodily symptoms relating to unrepresented states. These states result from traumatic breakdown of the patient’s ability to symbolize but also from a traumatic disorganization of the patient’s body-self. The psychoanalytic technique of interpreting the chain of free associations is in danger to overlook these encapsulated body engrams. Somatic narration describes a focused attention on the patient’s proprioception.

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.

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.
