Description

Description:

This workshop examines what can be learned from failures as well as successes, based on interviews with over a hundred of the field’s most prominent theorists and studies of famous individuals (Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, Sylvia Plath, Vaslav Nijinsky, Lenny Bruce, Charles Mingus) who have had spectacularly negative outcomes in therapy. Participants will investigate the nature of their own consistent errors and misjudgments, how we all try to ignore and disavow these experiences, and what we can do to embrace our failings and be more proactive in preventing them in the future. There will be opportunities to identify current personal and professional challenges and work through impasses and frustrations using a peer supervision methodology that can be used to any work context.

Objectives of Education:

To describe two lessons that may be gained from the worst therapists’ sessions.
To outline two approaches to becoming more strategic and methodical in supervision and self-supervision in order to deal with therapeutic setbacks.
