OPEN HOUSE LUNCHEON & CLINICAL PRESENTATION
FOR THOSE CONSIDERING POSTGRADUATE TRAINING
A Successful Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy of an Obsessional Man
Wednesday, December 4, 2013
1:00 PM – 2:30 PM
Brian Kloppenberg will present clinical material from a four year, one session per week therapy with a male patient who suffers from an
obsessional neurosis. The treatment vignettes will provide an opportunity to understand more fully how psychoanalytic psychotherapy
utilizes psychoanalytic principles within a modified framework. Crucial concepts such as positive transference, defensive process, and
interpretive action will be explored within the context of a successful, ongoing treatment that has led to a substantial reduction in psychic
difficulties for the patient.
