23.01.2022 A statement from IARPP International: Dear Friends and Colleagues, We are horrified and saddened by the tragic loss of life and ongoing, unequal treatment of the Black community in the United States and elsewhere. ... In the US, we have watched with heavy hearts over the last weeks and months as racialized violence unfolded at a terrifying rate, although we recognize, of course, that this is nothing new. And we are well aware of the disproportionate impact of Covid-19 on people of color. We mourn the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and all who have died or otherwise suffered at the hands of white supremacists and others with malintent. We recognize that many of us can only imagine the upset and trauma caused by these injustices, while others in our community are directly impacted by them. We stand in solidarity with the black community against all forms of racism. We stand with all who have endured systemic violence and blatant injustice in the United States and throughout the world. With wishes for positive change and greater justice in the weeks and months ahead. And sending our hope for peace, healing and safety to all who are in pain, suffering or in danger. Steven Kuchuck and the Executive Committee On behalf of the IARPP Board of Directors

19.01.2022 IARPP AUSTRALIA - ONLINE SEMINARS 2020 We were all treated to two very successful seminars with: Robert Grossmark - 4 April and 9 May 2020 Robert Grossmarks' presentation was highly engaging and insightful. He presented highly evocative case material as well as material from his publications. ... Part One The Unobtrusive Relational Analyst Psychoanalysts increasingly find themselves working with patients and states that are not amenable to verbal and dialogic engagement. Such patients are challenging for a psychoanalytic approach that assumes that the patient relates in the verbal realm and is capable of reflective function. Both the classical stance of neutrality and abstinence and a contemporary relational approach that works with mutuality and intersubjectivity, can often ask too much of patients. Part Two: Enactment, Time and Narrative in Psychoanalysis Trauma - whether massive or ongoing and cumulative - and neglect are not encoded in the symbolic and representational register. They exist in a dimension that is neither past nor present, an unpast that shadows experience and interaction. These pre-experiences become manifest in the enacted dimension of individual and group treatment. Mutual enactments are regarded as emergent narratives of what has yet to have form in the patient’s mind and the analyst unobtrusively companions the patient into an unconscious untelling of the unpast and lets these enactments speak in their own register. The field of the treatment comes to incarnate dimensions of the primal psyche, often capturing zones of timelessness, spacelessness and formlessness where everything happens at once and self and other are indistinguishable. Vivid clinical examples will be offered to illustrate these concepts. ROBERT GROSSMARK, PH.D, ABPP A psychoanalyst in private practice in New York City. He works with individuals, groups and couples and conducts psychoanalytic reading and supervision groups. He teaches and supervises at the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis, The National Institute for the Psychotherapies Program in Adult Psychoanalysis, National Training Program in Psychoanalysis, The Eastern Group Psychotherapy Society and other psychoanalytic institutes and clinical psychology doctoral programs. He has authored numerous papers on psychoanalytic process and group treatment and the recently published book The Unobtrusive Relational Analyst: Explorations in Psychoanalytic Companioning which was nominated for the 2019 Gradiva Award for best book in psychoanalysis. He co-edited the books, The One & The Many: Relational Approaches to Group Psychotherapy and Heterosexual Masculinities: Contemporary Perspectives from Psychoanalytic Gender Theory, all published by Routledge.

18.01.2022 GINNA CLARK in Conversation - Part 1 Primary Speech and the Silencing of Sexuality. 9 - 11am Saturday, August 8, 2020... This seminar will be solely on Zoom Australian Eastern Time - SYDNEY Please check the corresponding time in your zone! Dr Ginna Clark’s passion is to not only deliver useful clinical content and bolster clinician’s confidence for working with sexual issues in the consulting room, but to also provide engaging, experiential learning opportunities where clinicians can also meaningfully explore their own embodied and affective responses to a highly charged, often shame-riddled, and taboo topic. Primary Speech and the Silencing of Sexuality If identity, as relational psychoanalysis asserts, is something that happens between people then Ginna aims to explore how ideas about sexuality inform and impact the minds of those who listen and how the listening otherpsychiatrists, couples therapists, twelve-step communities, and herselfalso shape sexuality through their queries, concerns, interpretations, and blind-spots. In so doing, Clark calls attention to the ways this treatment inevitably stirs up questions about the primacy of sexuality in shaping a self, highlights unexamined assumptions about sexuality, and calls attention to dominant social narratives that course through the life of a treatment with powerful but often unspoken repercussions. GINNA CLARK, PsyD, LPCC, ATR-BC is a psychoanalyst and art therapist in private practice in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She is also founding director of the human sexuality program at Southwestern College, where she has designed and taught a variety of courses exploring clinical issues related to pornography, sexual trauma, non-monogamy, infidelity, eroticism, fantasies, and embodiment

16.01.2022 Last Saturday morning we enjoyed the first of our Community Conversations for the year, on Zoom, as most events occur these days under Covid. It’s amazing how exhilarating these conversations can be, when folks who are interested in understanding more about relational psychotherapy at a local and informal level can dip into issues to do with the impact of migration, the struggle to move out of insider and outsider states and reflect on the relief we experience when we are fr...ee to think and converse without being judged. The next Community Conversation will take place on 29 August, again a Saturday, at 11.00 am. We’ll keep you posted on how you can join us closer to the time.

14.01.2022 Ginna Clark - Part 2: 9 - 11am Saturday, August After a successful first seminar, Ginna Clark returns to continue the conversation on this invigorating and engaging topic. Attendance at the first seminar is not a requirement to attend Part 2. Please join us for: More than a Cursory Glance: Particularizing Pornography and Finding Meaning... This seminar will be solely on Zoom Australian Eastern Standard (Sydney) Time Dr Ginna Clark’s passion is to not only deliver useful clinical content and bolster clinician’s confidence for working with sexual issues in the consulting room, but to also provide engaging, experiential learning opportunities where clinicians can also meaningfully explore their own embodied and affective responses to a highly charged, often shame-riddled, and taboo topic. Pornography has existed since the beginning of time. Present in all ancient and modern cultures its ubiquitous nature forces us to acknowledge that human beings are sexual creatures (Sarracino & Scott, 2008). More than just moving images, naked bodies, and friction, pornography is powerful; it revolts, titillates, frightens, and entices. It engages our imagination, our deepest fears, and our steamiest fantasies. In this seminar, Dr. Ginna Clarke puts pornography on the couch and asks it to free associate. Without generalisation or blanket interpretation, she unsettles our preconceived notions about this taboo topic and redirects our attention to the differences between pornography consumers, the content they consume, and the meaning that's discovered when patient and therapist court specificity. GINNA CLARK, PsyD, LPCC, ATR-BC is a psychoanalyst and art therapist in private practice in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She is also founding director of the human sexuality program at Southwestern College, where she has designed and taught a variety of courses exploring clinical issues related to pornography, sexual trauma, non-monogamy, infidelity, eroticism, fantasies, and embodiment.

06.01.2022 MELBOURNE TALKS: Dreaming in the time of COVID Sunday 20 September Zoom: 11:30am to 1:00pm... Join Lorraine Richards and Jo Violet (Jungian Analysts) in a conversation about dreaming during this time of the pandemic. Both will consider how messages, and messengers, from the interior are expressing and navigating our inner fears, anxieties and adaptations. Your own, or your patients’ experience of dreaming during this time is welcome into the conversation. Lorraine Richards trained as a psychologist, family therapist and somatic psychotherapist before completing her Jungian Analytic Training with the Australia New Zealand Society of Jungian Analysts in 2013. Lorraine works in private practice in Melbourne. She is currently Secretary of Training in the CGJI ANZSJA Analytic Training Program. Lorraine’s interest in the world of dreams and embodied imagination as invitations to encountering alternate and multiple views of self and other has involved her in facilitating dream groups for over 20 years. This has included dream group excursions into the Central Australian desert, Lake Mungo, Greece and Turkey. Jo Violet trained initially as a child psychiatrist and child psychoanalytic psychotherapist at the Tavistock Clinic in London before training as a Jungian analyst with ANZSJA. She has a private practice in Melbourne working with both adults and children. Dreams are an integral part of Jo's work, often weaving their own magic alongside the analytic process. Jo is interested in how dreams contain sources of creative contradiction, which allow for the multiple perspectives of a healthy psyche, both within a personal context and towards understanding the world at large. Date: Sunday 20 September 2020 Time: 11.30 am - 1:00pm Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/s/8847087889 This is a free event.
