Program Abstract 

Based on 25 years of psychoanalytic and intensive psychotherapy work with patients and his experiences as a teacher, supervisor, and mentor, Dr. Klafter will describe how psychoanalysts are affected by their relationships with their patients. Drawing on object relations theories of psychological development, he will describe how the patient inhabits the analyst's representational world, and how the analytic situation catalyzes unprecedented changes in the analyst’s self-representations and adult personality development. Dr. Klafter will also discuss how these changes can impact the analyst's marriage and romantic relationships, parenting, political views, religious beliefs, and friendships.
