A Report on the IAPSP Conference in Los Angeles

Jonathan Lebolt, PhD, DCSW, CGP

The 38th Annual Conference of the International Association for Psychoanalytic Self Psychology (IAPSP), of which ICP+P is a member, was held in Los Angeles this year, from October 15 through 18. The conference theme was Self Psychology in a Multidisciplinary World: Expansiveness and Constraints. I was excited to be at my second IAPSP conference, and that it was held in LA, where my brother lives, so that Robin and I could stay with him.

It was wonderful to see friends from Jerusalem last year and make new acquaintances. For those of you who have not yet had the privilege of attending an IAPSP conference, it is a rare opportunity to connect with others, throughout the US and around the world, who are interested in self psychology, and to learn a lot. The conference was preceded by two pre-conference workshop slots on Thursday. This was a chance to have a right-brain experience, because the conference proper is heavy on read papers.

I chose, for my first pre-conference workshop, Using Psychodrama Techniques to Process our Work, by ICP+P member, Monica Callahan, PhD. Acting is one of my hobbies, and it was exciting, as well as enlightening, to act the part of one of my most difficult clients, a young man with an unusual form of bipolar disorder, ADHD, and some psychotic thought processes, and to get excellent indirect supervision from Monica and the group, as questions they asked me in my client role stimulated my clinical thinking.

I next attended Suzi Naiburg, PhD, LICSW’s enlivening presentation, Intersubjective Experience up Close, Alive, and Contextualized: A Clinical Writing Workshop.

Welcome Our New Member

Nicole Fischer, PhD

Nicole Fischer, PhD

It was through an ICP+P member living in Atlanta that Nicole Fischer, PhD first learned about our organization. (Yes, we have long-distance members who are ambassadors for ICP+P!) At that time she was a postdoctoral fellow in clinical psychology in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Emory University School of Medicine.

Following graduation from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville with a BA in Psychology, Nicole joined the Peace Corps. The position she assumed required fluency in French, a language Nicole began to study in fifth grade. For two years she worked as a Community Intervention Specialist in the Girls’ Education and Empowerment Program (GEE) in Kpalime, Togo in West Africa. In this role Nicole collaborated with the Togolese Ministry of Education to allow women and children to be educated and to assume educational and leadership positions. Among other subjects she taught English language and grammar, informational technology and HIV/AIDS awareness.

“I knew I wanted to come back and become a psychologist,” Nicole informed me, and after returning to the states and working in various positions, she completed an MS in Counseling Psychology at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia, which was followed three years later with a PhD in Counseling Psychology.

Commuting between Charlottesville, Virginia and the Washington, D.C. area is a current challenge for Nicole. She recently accepted a position as a staff psychologist at the University of Virginia Counseling and Psychological Services. Previously, she worked as a staff psychologist at the Marymount University Counseling Center and adjunct professor of psychology. In her position at UVA, Nicole provides brief individual and group psychotherapy for undergraduate and graduate students, crisis intervention with day and evening emergency on-call availability, supervision for doctoral level students, and facilitation of campus outreach programming and engagement, among other responsibilities.
Every other weekend Nicole travels from Charlottesville to Alexandria, Virginia to conduct a private practice in the Del Ray area. In this setting she provides individual psychotherapy to adolescents and adults, focusing on trauma and substance abuse. She is contemplating the initiation of a private practice in Charlottesville.

Initially educated with a CBT focus, Nicole participated in an ICP+P study group, which she acknowledges “offered a more personal relationship with other professionals working in different clinical settings with a psychodynamic background.” She is interested in developing a psychodynamic orientation to enhance her professional growth and advance her clinical practice. Nicole believes that ICP+P is “the most contemporary, accessible and personal” organization that she has found in her search to accomplish this goal.

When she is not commuting, Nicole is running–training for half marathons! She enjoys yoga and travels to visit family “scattered along the East Coast.” She grew up in New Jersey but has adopted the Mid-Atlantic area as her new home.

To contact Nicole, please e-mail her at Nicole.L.Fischer.PhD@gmail.com; her website is www.nicolelfischer.com.

Bringing IAPSP to ICP+P

Rosemary Segalla, PhD, Elizabeth Carr, APRN, MSN, BC, and Janna Sandmeyer, PhD

A merry band of ICP+P members attended the 2015 International Association of Psychoanalytic Self Psychology conference in Los Angeles. We had a great time at the conference — from the stimulating presentations, to the small group discussions, to trading ideas with colleagues from around the world, to visiting the fabulous Broad museum, to playing with our ICP+P buddies, and so on. Everyone enjoyed the conference and the chance to be together. It was great! We came back energized and want to bring our IAPSP experience to you. Plus, we want more ICP+P playmates for the 2016 IAPSP conference that will be just up the road in Boston in October 2016. We give you advance notice so that you can start planning now!

Working in concert with Jen Sermoneta, ICP+P’s Associate Director for Programs, and the planning group for the December 5 ICP+P Conference featuring Shelley Doctors and Jackie Gotthold on adolescent development and treatment, we are delighted to announce a pre-conference: The Big Tent of Contemporary Psychoanalytic Thinking: Playing with Intersubjective, Self and Relational Constructs. Shelley Doctors and Janna Sandmeyer are generously donating their time for an encore performance by bringing their papers from their IAPSP panel to this conference on December 4 from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m. The conference will be held at the Silver Spring Civic Center, One Veterans Plaza, Silver Spring, MD 20910. Parking is available at a Montgomery County parking garage right next to the civic center. Also, the civic center is a ten – fifteen minute walk from the Silver Spring metro station.

The Big Tent of Contemporary Psychoanalytic Thinking: Playing with Intersubjective, Self and Relational Constructs

with Shelley Doctors, PhD, Janna Sandmeyer, PhD, and a paper by Donna Orange, PhD, PsyD

We are pleased to collaborate with IAPSP in offering this pre-conference session. Shelley Doctors will present her paper, Donna Orange’s paper will be read, and Janna Sandmeyer will act as discussant at this ICP+P Preconference on Friday afternoon, December 4. The panel addresses some of the most compelling current issues in psychoanalytic thinking, including concepts from contemporary self psychology, intersubjectivity, and relational psychoanalysis. These ideas have enormous implications for facilitative clinical engagement and for understanding curative processes. Topics such as selfobject experience and working through intersubjective enactments (disruption and repair) will be discussed, among others. There will be ample time for audience engagement.

This pre-conference will be held on Friday, December 4 from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m. It will be in a new location for us: the Silver Spring Civic Center, One Veterans Plaza, Silver Spring, MD 20910. Parking is available at a Montgomery County parking garage across from the civic center. The Silver Spring metro station is a ten to fifteen minute walk.

The two-hour program will NOT provide CEs, but is free or low cost.

We need to know how many people to expect in order to set up chairs and provide an adequate sound system. Walk-ins, please bring a check or cash for payment.

The December 4th event is designed to function like a pre-conference workshop: introducing participants to Shelley’s ideas, the ICP+P manner of talking about theoretical and clinical ideas, and the benefits of attending ICP+P and IAPSP conferences. This pre-conference is open to all ICP+P members and the mental health community at large. We want to welcome and encourage new audiences, especially those unfamiliar with ICP+P or IAPSP, and we hope people will attend both the Friday and Saturday programs.

On the morning of Saturday, December 5, 2015, ICP+P offers a three-hour program with 3 CE credits:

Authenticity, Openness, and Spontaneity: A Contemporary Psychoanalytic View of Adolescent Development and Treatment

with Shelley Doctors, PhD and Jacqueline Gotthold, PsyD

Jackie Gotthold, PsyD and Shelley Doctors, PhD find that treatment is more effective when elements of spontaneity, openness and authenticity emerge. In their talks they will address the developmental conceptualizations that may help clinicians to make such therapeutically successful connections with patients. The discussion following their presentations will highlight how Gotthold and Doctors are speaking of the challenge all of us face in striving for greater authenticity in the therapy session while still maintaining a disciplined clinical/theoretical stance: spontaneity does not equal wildness.

While this program focuses on the adolescent population, clinicians who treat adults can benefit equally: openness to interaction is also a fundamental building block for engagement with adults.

Jacqueline Gotthold, PsyD will present “Treating Adolescents and Conflict: Theirs or Ours” and Shelley Doctors, PhD, the discussant, will present “On Gotthold’s Case of Luke and the Adolescent Developmental Process”.

At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to:

1. Summarize the concept of “conflict” in adolescence, including the dimensions of separation, attachment, cognition, reflective thinking and social integration.

2. Apply the contemporary psychoanalytic approach in a discussion of case material, demonstrating consideration of the adolescent’s and the analyst’s relational “conflicts.”

3. Explain the benefits of an expansive and integrative contemporary psychoanalytic approach to adolescent treatment, including a respect for developmental tasks of adolescence such as the dawning of reflective thinking and the expansion of the adolescent’s relational world.

4. Articulate ways to effectively and responsibly nurture therapeutic spontaneity, openness, and authenticity in one’s practice.

This conference is appropriate for clinicians at all levels of experience.

The Couples Therapy Training Program of ICP+P will present an experiential conference on working with couples embroiled in the aftermath of an affair.
