The how & the who are the one in the two.
It’s where we stand 𝒊𝒏 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 to one another (not 𝒘𝒉𝒐 we are but 𝒉𝒐𝒘 we are in relation) that determines our personal experiences and the meanings we attribute to them. —William Coburn
@PPSCNYC Is this from Promises, Promises or Cure for Psychoanalysis, or somewhere else?
Giving up can be good actually, Adam Philips recent “on giving up” is a good read.
We must always be prepared to drop our provisional assumptions if we think we are in a position to replace them with something else closer to the unknown reality. —Freud
This account conveys the same three messages repeatedly: 1) Graduate training does not fully prepare clinicians for the work of psychotherapy. 2) Acronym therapies are usually a distraction from what therapists really need to learn. 3) Read Glen Gabbard.
Cosigning this
This account conveys the same three messages repeatedly: 1) Graduate training does not fully prepare clinicians for the work of psychotherapy. 2) Acronym therapies are usually a distraction from what therapists really need to learn. 3) Read Glen Gabbard.
It should not be lost on anyone that two themes across these four books are: 1) Developing as a therapist 2) Making things easy In the practice of psychotherapy, these two things are rarely compatible.
Helping a friend (@tobyshorin) with some research: Assuming it’s true, what do you think is contributing to the increasing trend of people seeking training to become psychoanalysts?
@PPSCNYC If, for some bizarre reason, I could only read one author for the rest of my life it would be Phillips
@PPSCNYC Suffering my own bewilderment long enough. What was overlooked in a hasty looking for.
What therapist Facebook groups sound like
@PPSCNYC Have to say, tho, that I'm as wary of a constant eschewing of answers as I am of always purporting to have an answer. Sometimes an "answer" can be a good experiment to alternately test, resist, embrace, & then incorporate or reject--I feel like it hones one's identity "chops."
I added captions to this rare footage of relational psychoanalyst Stephen Mitchell from the 1989 Div39 conference in Boston (1/2)
I usually advise patients who are looking for a therapist to ask in the free phone call, "Do you consider Prometheus a better film than Aliens?", and if they say yes, call another therapist.
If you are looking for a therapist, one of the first questions you should ask them during the free phone call most therapists offer is what their view is on locus of control. If they suggest most people don't have an internal locus of control, call another therapist.
Perfect dodge of the system: "The story is told that, when his mother tried to force him to marry, he replied it was too soon, and when she pressed him again later in life, he replied that it was too late." — Roland Barthes on Thales the wise.
