The course will emphasize the
therapist's use of self as an analytic instrument. Continuing Klein's
introduction to primitive mental functioning, we will investigate a post-Kleinian
approach to the ways people use their mind to find or destroy
meaning. Clinical applications of theory to common clinical
situations will again be the focus of lecture, informal discussion, and
shared presentations.
Study Group Leader: Myrna Little, PhD
Objective: The
enhancement of the therapist's listening and responding skills.
Location: Presbyterian Community Mental
Health Center
Time: 7:30-9:00 pm
Registration:: $125 (Students: $70)
Readings: Will be supplied by Dr. Little for an
additional fee.

attendance that they may submit for continuing education credits.
