WSPP- MAY 8: WHO’S SHAMING WHOM? SHAMING AND ASHAMED IN THE THERAPY OFFICE
May 8, 2009 9:30am-12:30pm
Presenter: Michael Stadter, PhD
This seminar will focus on the powerful and, at times, debilitating emotion of shame. We will especially look at the inner world of shaming objects and ashamed selves and consider the various ways this is manifested in therapy. The following are among the topics to be explored: the physiology and phenomenology of shame; types of shaming objects and shamed selves; shame and Guntrip’s concept of the regressed libidinal ego and the concept of interpersonal truamatization; the therapy setting, technique and countertransference. The presenter will offer many examples from his practice and invite participants to discuss their own experiences, as well.
