SCIARPP invites you to the fourth presentation in the
Building Bridges Series, Saturday 21 February, 2015
with a live video-presentation by
Donnel Stern
Donnel Stern has been one of the most prolific contributors to the canon of
formulations for how relational analysts work. In his books and articles, Donnel
has been articulating a particular vision for how to understand therapeutic action
based on ideas about unformulated experience, novelty, courting surprise and
relational curiosity. Dr Stern will be presenting his recent paper “Relational
Freedom and Therapeutic Action” live from New York. In this paper, he offers
his most current and specific presentation of this vision.
The paper will be followed by a conversation with panelists from a range of
diverse psychotherapeutic orientations and will continue the tradition of “Building
Bridges” events. This seminar series is designed to provide a forum in which the
many psychoanalytically oriented groups in Sydney can engage together in
dialogue and explore commonalities. The panel will consist of:
Alison Clark Australian and New Zealand Association of Jungian Analysts (ANZSJA)
Celia Conolly Institute of Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (ICAPP)
Dr. Roberto D'Angelo Sydney Chapter of the International Association for Relational
Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (SCIARPP)
Dr Ken Israelstam Sydney Institute for Psychoanalysis (SIP)
Tim Johnson-Newell Australian Association of Group Therapists (AAGP)
Dr. Henry Luiker Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP)
Dr. Tessa Philips Australian and New Zealand Association of Psychotherapy (ANZAP)
Prof. Gill Straker Australian Centre for Psychoanalysis (ACP)
Dr Anne-Marie Swan NSW Institute of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (NSWIPP)
With the hope of building bridges and extending the reach of our dialogue beyond
Sydney, we will also be offering online participation for those who live outside
of Sydney, utilizing Zoom video-conferencing. “Zoom” participants will be able to
see and hear the presenter as well as the panel and audience, but will not be able
to interact with them. As we are still trialing this technology, we will not require
payment for Zoom registrants until after the event. If the technology fails, you
will not be charged. Please contact Roberto D’Angelo roberto_d@optusnet.com.au
for more information about Zoom participation.
