About the Workshop
Morning Focus: Core Competencies in Relational Psychoanalysis
Drawing from Dr. Barsness’ text, Core Competencies in Relational Psychoanalysis: A Guide to Practice, Study, and Research, this session
invites participants to identify and explore the seven core disciplines of relational psychoanalysis, as revealed through his qualitative research. The
workshop will deepen participants' understanding of relationally oriented theory and clinical practice, with a special focus on radical openness,
courageous speech, and disciplined spontaneity. It offers a valuable opportunity for practitioners to assess and reflect on their own clinical approaches
through a relational psychoanalytic lens.
Afternoon Focus: Psychodynamic Supervision
In the afternoon, Dr. Barsness shifts focus to his latest book, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy in a New Key. Traditional supervisory
relationships often follow a didactic model, where the supervisor provides guidance, critique, and feedback. In contrast, this seminar introduces an
innovative supervision framework that emphasizes affect over cognition and places the therapist’s subjectivity at the center of understanding the patient’s
internal and interpersonal world. The discussion will also highlight a reimagining of analytic interpretations as complex, evolving dialogues.
Learning Objectives
After attending this session, participants should be able to:
1. Identify practical and common disciplines inherent in the relationally focused paradigms that are
useful in conducting a coherent and purposeful treatment.
2. Identify relevant ethical considerations when working within a relationally
focused model.
3. Assess and critique a new model of supervision grounded in relational
psychoanalysis in contrast to the more common supervisory process that
offers cognitive case formulations of the presenting case.
4. Develop a new language moving from interpretation into complex dialogue.
5. Apply the principles of the new method (referred to as M- Muse; A- Affect;
M- Metabolization; A- Articulation; and L- Learning) in their supervisory
practices.
