Psychoanalysis in the Community: Panel Presentation
Recent efforts to take psychoanalytic training and treatment out to a far broader community are returning psychoanalysis to its roots. As Elizabeth Danto recounted in “Freud’s Free Clinics,” Freud, Adler, Reich, Horney, Deutsch, Erikson and other early analysts saw themselves as brokers of social and political change, creating clinics that offered free mental health care. Their efforts can help us now as we seek to broaden psychoanalysis’s reach in today’s world.

About this Event
Clinical Engagement with Climate Distress: Trauma to the Earth and Unearthed Trauma
This colloquium will focus on how to think clinically about the existential threat of the human-caused, earth-based trauma of the Climate and Environmental Emergency (CEE). This trauma is emotionally impacting our patients and ourselves, resulting in high levels of climate distress and grief or, conversely, the disavowal and dissociation of the impacts. The colloquium will include exercises to help clinicians engage with their own emotional reactions to the CEE and reflect on ways early object attachments and defenses may be at play. We will provide clinical examples of working with climate distress, including how to explore the interweaving of personal and societal/earth traumas. We will also help participants explore the concept of resilience, and the continuum from hope to despair in contemplating our collective future.
Wendy Greenspun, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist/psychoanalyst practicing in New York City. She is on the faculty of the Manhattan Institute for Psychoanalysis and on the faculty of the Adelphi University Postdoctoral program in Couple Therapy. She has led workshops for university students on building emotional resilience in the face of climate distress and presented to mental health professionals and psychoanalytic audiences on the climate crisis both locally and internationally.
Elizabeth Allured, Psy.D., is on the teaching faculty at Adelphi University’s postgraduate programs in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy, and at Suffolk Institute for Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. She has published articles on the environmental crisis from a psychoanalytic perspective, and has been presenting her ideas about this at international psychoanalytic conferences, since 2007. Dr. Allured is co-president of Climate Psychology Alliance-North America, and has a clinical practice in Port Washington, New York.

Friday, March 12th – 2:15pm-4p – A Reckoning with Internalized Oppression: Evolving Identity Formations Inside and Outside the Consulting Room
What happens when both psychoanalyst and patient deny aspects of their social identity and internalized racism/oppression, and how do these influence both treatment choices and dynamics? A diverse panel explores racial enactments resulting from the disavowal of their own racialized subjectivities and evolving sense of identity personally and professionally.

Building Blocks: A Path Of Reckoning Transmitted Trauma and Restoring Attachment in Birth Mothers and Children in Foster Care
Building Blocks is a psychodynamic treatment for families in the child welfare system. To establish its effectiveness, research measures are
integrated into the intervention. We will reckon with the various forms of “data” – both clinical observations and research – to identify factors facilitating trust, healing and attachment in parent-child relationships.

Two biracial psychoanalysts from lower-working-class backgrounds explore their internalized object worlds of cultural identifications, both living in their “invisible ethnic skins.” An early careerist and senior analyst share family stories honoring their origins while revisiting their racialized subjectivities, examining dissociative processes, class/racial enactments, and normative multiplicities using clinical material.
