Child Colloquium Series

The Child Analytic Program of the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis welcomes you to a series of presentations representing the remarkable scope of child psychoanalysis today. These discussions will offer us an increasingly sophisticated understanding of the mind and of human development seen through the lens of clinical experience with children and adolescents.

Beyond Trauma: [Almost] Everything You Need to Know About Theory and Intervention

Robert Friend, M.D.
Eileen Keller, Ph.D.
Gilbert Kliman, M.D.

Saturday, 11/7/2009 10:00am - 12:30pm

We have gathered together three well known psychoanalysts, each with expertise in responding to trauma. They will tackle hard questions: What do we need to know to respond to a traumatic event, be it individual, institutional or environmental? When and how do we react to the death of a preschool child, the murder of a parent or to a frightening/catastrophic event with community repercussions? What are the psychodynamic strengths therapists need to stabilize themselves? What do we offer to counter psychic disorientation which is timely, developmentally appropriate and psychotherapeutic?
