The Sándor Ferenczi Center is pleased to announce a three-session seminar, beginning February 4th, 2020, taught by Anthony Bass, Ph.D., which will involve a close reading of The Clinical Diary of Sándor Ferenczi. We will consider the therapeutic implications of Ferenczi’s discoveries as they are reported in the Diary and other of his late work. We will also consider some contemporary work in which Ferenczi’s experiments in mutual analysis, his discoveries regarding mutuality, the expressive and implicit uses of countertransference, and the omnipresence of enactment served as a point of departure for the development of relational technique. Ferenczi’s groundbreaking contributions to these and other dimensions of therapeutic work constituted fundamental building blocks of relational, interpersonal, and intersubjective schools of therapy. The seminar is intended to provide an introduction to Ferenczi’s work, thought, and far-reaching influence in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy.
All participants should have a copy of The Clinical Diary of Sándor Ferenczi.
