01 Nov 2013 17:00 : Sligo Balint Symposium

 

BALINT WEEK-END WORKSHOP

 

in

 

SLIGO, WEST of IRELAND, November, 2013

 

Friday November 1st to Sunday November 3rd

 

 

 

The Balint Society takes its name from Psychoanalysts Michael and Enid Balint, who began work in the 1950s to help General Practitioners reach a better understanding of the emotional content of the doctor-patient relationship and so improve their therapeutic potential.

 

We are thus very pleased to announce that the very first Balint Group Method weekend Workshop in the South of Ireland. This is a direct follow on from the very successful ‘launch’ of Balint that took place in Belfast last November.

 

This workshop then will be of interest to many professional groups – including general practitioners, psychotherapists, psychiatrists and psychologists, with or without previous Balint experience – because whilst the method was originally developed with general practitioners in mind it is applicable across a wide range of disciplines and learning contexts.

 

In this framework the core belief is framed upon being able to present one’s concerns, dilemmas, difficulties, “stuckness” with patients / clients in a group context and then sit back and listen as a group of fellow professionals free associate and reflect on what has been presented.

 

Thus the Balint group experience provides a framework for reflecting on our professional practice. The work aims not only to increase therapeutic effectiveness with patients/ clients but also to help develop self-awareness and strengthen the practitioner’s own capacity to manage the stresses and strains involved in such complex work.

Professor Ivor Browne has been a controversial figure in Dublin and Ireland for many years. A psychiatrist, he is well known for many things – his contribution to the Peace Process in the North (for which his work in Derry is well known); his Foundation for Human Development and his continued questioning of psychiatric orthodoxy in the Ireland of yesterday and indeed today. His passion for music goes back to his early years and he is well known for his musicianship. The title of one of his best known books gives the flavour of the man: Music and Madness.

Crucially, Ivor carried out innovative work on the treatment of trauma, the subject of this lecture.

Conference with Dr. Judy Gammelgaard

 

 

Saturday 29 March 2014

 

 

Betweenity: Understanding the Distorted World of Borderline Relationships

 

 

Judy Gammelgaard is author of Betweenity: A Discussion of the Concept of Borderline (Routledge, London, 2010), and of numerous psychoanalytic articles informed by French psychoanalytical theorists and D.W. Winnicott.  She is Professor and Head of the Centre of Psychoanalysis at the Department of Psychology, University of Copenhagen; is a training analyst and a member of the Danish Psychoanalytic Society, and of the International Psychoanalytical Association. 

  

She deals particularly with the difficulties of  those who cannot benefit from ‘good experiences’ in therapy or in life owing to the distortions which arise in their close relationships. She addresses the dynamics underlying  their suspended limbo existence owing to lack of internal (good) object representation which produces defensive relational forms informed by ‘the logic of desperation and the logic of indifference’.

 

In addition to the conference presentation, Dr. Gammelgaard will attend a viewing of the film Shame (directed by

The Poetics of Loss

 

Dariane Pictet

 

Loss presents us with a shattering of the delicate balance we have struck between the fierceness and beauty of existence. Poetic imagery dissolves the lonely tears of loss and reconnect us to the immediacy of shared experience Drawing on poems from Rumi, Mary Oliver, Rilke among others, Dariane Pictet will explore how bereavement can become a gateway to Jung’s process of individuation.

 

Dariane Pictet is a Jungian Analyst and author of Rumi – Poet of the Heart, and Kali- Goddess of Destruction, both published in The Jungian Odysseys Series by Spring Books, she also edited two Anthologies of Poetry. Originally from Geneva, Switzerland, she holds a degree in Comparative Religion from Columbia University and a Diploma from the C. G. Jung Institute in Zurich. She also trained with Marion Woodman and completed the BodySoul Leadership program.
