ABSTRACTWhile psychoanalysis historically privileged the mutative power of spoken words and explicit interpretive understanding, we now know that all experience originates in, unfolds from and is felt through our bodies, enhancing or constraining what can be talked about explicitly. The therapist optimally expands her listening perspective to include implicit communications of bodily experience in order to deepen the empathic process and create new therapeutic opportunity. Principles from infant research, neurobiology, progressive establishment of a collaborative, contingent dialogue and sustaining an intention unfolding process inform the integrative approach illustrated in this paper. Psychoanalysis is a process of learning by doing a multimodal fitting together process through dialogue that is continuously implicit and intermittently verbal. The analyst must actively facilitate and scaffold implicit and explicit dialogue with the goal of fitting together and creating new experience.KEYWORDS: Collaborative contingent dialoguedyadic expansion of consciousnessfitting togetherforms of vitalityimplicit domainintention unfolding process Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsScott M.

【摘要】精神分析历来强调口头语言的变异能力和明确的解释性理解，但我们现在知道，所有的经验都起源于我们的身体，从我们的身体中展开，并通过我们的身体感受到，增强或限制了可以明确谈论的内容。治疗师最好地扩展她的倾听视角，包括身体体验的隐性交流，以深化共情过程并创造新的治疗机会。来自婴儿研究、神经生物学、逐步建立合作、偶然对话和维持意图展开过程的原则为本文所述的综合方法提供了信息。精神分析是一个学习的过程，通过不断含蓄的对话和断断续续的口头对话，将多模态融合在一起。分析人员必须积极地促进和支撑隐含的和明确的对话，目标是结合在一起并创造新的体验。关键词:协作、偶然对话、意识扩展、契合、活力形式、隐性领域、意图展开过程披露声明作者未发现潜在的利益冲突。作者简介:scott M.

ABSTRACTBeginning with Kohut’s classic 1959 paper on the subject, empathy has been conceptualized as a process of finding something in one’s self (introspection) that has resonance with one’s experience of the other. This paper, inspired by advances in queer studies, philosophy, psychoanalysis, and the Black American theater, identifies the limitations of this understanding. By putting Kohut’s ideas about empathy in dialogue with French philosopher Jean-François Lyotard, Black American playwrights Jeremy O. Harris, Michael R.

The theoretical and clinical implications of this shift are explored, and the possibilities for a queered Psychology of the Self that contain a heightened possibility for responsiveness to marginalized experience are suggested.

【摘要】从科胡特1959年关于这一主题的经典论文开始，移情就被定义为在一个人的自我(内省)中找到与一个人对另一个人的经历有共鸣的东西的过程。本文受酷儿研究、哲学、精神分析和美国黑人戏剧的启发，确定了这种理解的局限性。通过与法国哲学家让-弗朗索瓦·利奥塔、美国黑人剧作家杰里米·o·哈里斯、迈克尔·r·杰克逊和詹姆斯·詹姆斯的对话，以及作者自己的临床经验，科霍特关于同理心的观点被理论化了，这种同理心较少依赖于自我参照，更多依赖于可通过性。本文探讨了这一转变的理论和临床意义，并提出了一种酷儿自我心理学的可能性，其中包含了对边缘化经历做出反应的更高可能性。本文希望读者从多学科的角度出发，能够被启发去想象一种精神分析和自我心理学，它有可能在未来的几代人中蓬勃发展。我要感谢Willa France对这篇文章的思考和关注，以及她对这个项目背后的意图更广泛的支持。Karen Weiser和Mike Strupp-Levitsky对文章的不同草稿提供了宝贵的反馈。我的父亲彼得·古扎迪(Peter Guzzardi)花了无数个小时帮助我理清这里的思路和写作;我永远感激你。特别感谢Avgi Saketopoulou的严谨，灵感和不懈。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1:谁是“真正的”吉姆，而不是为了奴隶游戏练习而表演，这是一个温和的模棱两可的问题，它激发了最后一幕的力量，恰当地命名为“驱魔”。关于这部分戏剧的更有力的讨论，请参阅Saketopoulou (Citation2023)，第128-130.2页。这绝不是在诋毁朱迪思·巴特勒(Judith Butler)在这一主题上对当代思想的开创性贡献，她在那里严谨而成熟地概述了她的论点，即性别在很大程度上是关于一个人在预先建立的剧本中工作的方式——因此是“表演”。然而，对这一观点的草率且危险的挪用是一个严肃的问题，大卫·施瓦茨(David Schwartz) 2021年在《婴儿、儿童和青少年心理治疗杂志》(Journal of Infant, Child, and Adolescent Psychotherapy)上发表的一篇不合情理的文章就是一个例子，他和其他人一样，在文章中贬低了巴特勒的观点，认为性别是“表演”，所以它在某种程度上是虚假的、微不足道的或转瞬即逝的——然后他用这一观点来支持他反对为跨性别青年提供医疗干预的论点。作者简介:ssam Guzzardi是纽约主体性精神分析研究所(IPSS)的成员和毕业生，同时也是该研究所和国家心理治疗研究所的教员。他于2022年在《美国精神分析协会杂志》上发表的论文《唯一的同志:同性恋童年中的孪生关系》获得了拉尔夫·E·拉夫顿论文奖，因为他“对女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、同性恋、跨性别者或性别变异者的精神分析理解和/或治疗做出了原创和杰出的贡献”。他的作品也发表在《精神分析对话录》上。

Sperry has written a very gripping and timely paper. Furthermore, repeated readings disclosed the paper to be surprisingly complex and multi-layered, a paper that admits to at least two and possibly more discourses. I say surprising because my initial reading brought forth the most surface aspect (by surface I do not mean superficial) a paper that constitutes a coherent and well-organized linear discourse in two parts. In Part One (statement of the problem), Sperry expounds on the tragic realities of climate change, realities that flow from a misguided anthropocentric view, a view that “skips along hand in hand with colonialism, industrialism, and capitalism.” (Sperry, 2023, p. 563) and a view that disconnects us from the other-than-human. Sperry begins with her moving personal encounter with climate change, and how she and many others “flip flop between panic and numb complacency.” Sperry draws on the works of multiple authors who expound on the complexities of climate psychology, a discourse that well explains both why we got to this place and to the collective responses/non-responses that appear to leave us in “hopeless collapse.” Sperry is careful to include herself as complicit in the problem. Sperry then follows with the central question of this paper: “What will motivate us, collectively and individually, to change our attitudes and lifestyles? How do we . . . ‘actively unlearn’ the anthropocentric values that are literally killing us?” (Sperry, 2023, p. 565). This question is followed by a moving personal account of Sperry immersing herself more directly with nature out of which came an emerging sense of wonder for the world around her, a sense that offered a possible pathway out of the above apparent collective impasse. Part Two (Possible solution of the problem): This part constitutes a thorough and welldocumented account of the new science of awe, an experiential state that promises transformative power on how we experience our world, especially the sense of vastness beyond our “small self” reconnecting us to the other-than-human world, perturbing our assumptions and “expands our horizons . . . [challenging] us to actively unlearn anthropocentrism” (Sperry, 2023, p. 567). Sperry’s account of the phenomenology of awe is both gripping and compelling, Sperry ends with an example of a patient experiencing awe in the context of her encounter with the eyes of a giraffe. My initial reading therefore disclosed a clear and straightforward account of the dangers of climate change, its origins in colonialism, individualism, and anthropocentrism, the human phenomenological/psychological response, both collective and individual, a response that appears to lead to impasse, followed by the central question: Is there

ABSTRACT In this essay, the author takes us viscerally into the personal and professional dimensions of the war experiences of our Ukrainian colleagues. These observations are folded into the broader context of how mental health services have been viewed in this culture and how the events of the war created changes in those views. The author also describes the challenge of helping people with a variety of problems that the therapists themselves were experiencing.

ABSTRACT Our Ukrainian colleagues write from the epicenter of a war that ripples outward, touching us too as distant neighbors in a global economy and community. This response summarizes their experience and focuses on a significant pattern that stands out amongst the many ordeals: the impact of multiple, simultaneous, and cumulative losses which combine, becoming a “complex-context,” a disturbing addition to stress on relational connections. The implications of this are explored along with the way self-experience is affected. These therapists offer poignant glimpses into the difficulties of being a “Relational Home” to patients when both are thrown into a collective tragedy. We in the US, may wish to respond in kinship, in turn becoming their Relational Homes, but we must then in addition to understanding the existential phenomenology that is integral to all human lives, find analogs relevant to their gritty experience: uncertainty about basic survival, ruination of home and other symbolic objects, brutal intrusions including the news of atrocities, and the terrifying destabilization of familiar selfhood. Using an intersubjective-systems theory perspective on working with trauma I offer a possible way that we in the USA can derive analogs from recent American experience.

ABSTRACT In this essay to her western colleagues, the author addresses a hope of a more resolute Ukraine who will after the current war do more than simply “accept and move on.” She expresses the hope that the future will see the establishment of a more resolute Ukraine, ready to defend and define itself as a fully autonomous society and nation, to go beyond survival mode even while recognizing the savage violence and loss her country has suffered.

Kateryna Bagan
ABSTRACT The therapist’s experience of living through wartime in Ukraine draws her to Winnicott’s notion of the developmental capacity to be alone. The author examines the loss of a witnessing experience, a self-with-other containment, when one is violently displaced from home, family, and community. This loss of safety where “no one is present for anyone” leads to an exploration of the impact of the therapist’s dissociation and how it disables their capacity to be emotionally present for themselves and their patients. The author highlights the solitary nature of trauma and the existential experience of loneliness as a critical feature for patients and therapists alike.

ABSTRACT The author describes how she and her colleagues recovered from their state of shock after the invasion of their country by the Russian Federation army by coming together to create hotlines and chat sites to help their traumatized and threatened population. Flooded by day and night calls from traumatized Ukrainians under assault, they learned that by simply being there with others and listening to them was what was most needed and helped the caller as well as the listener. The humanity of this interaction provided both a much-needed counterweight to the inhumanity surrounding them.

Alyona Esse-Chukanova, Darren Haber
ABSTRACT In this interview, psychoanalyst Doctor Esse-Chukanova stresses the importance of resistance to survive, on a personal and national level, under wartime invasion. She movingly describes ways in which she stays connected to her patients even in such unimaginable circumstances, repeating that for her and many of her colleagues, surrender, submission, or exile in the face of such oppressive horror is not an option. She also discusses the vital support of colleagues within her community, underscoring, there and in the therapeutic dyad, the importance of relational ideas in preserving human connection amidst inhuman conditions.
