No regis trations are possible after this time.\n\nThe New Center for Psychoanaly sis is pleased to welcome\n\n-- Dr. Ofra Eshel --\n\nThis presentation, as well as Dr. Eshel's writings over the years, explores a fundamental d imension of analytic work created by the analyst/therapist’s “presen cing” (being there) within the patient’s experiential world and the grip of the analytic process, and the ensuing deep patient-analyst inter connectedness or “withnessing” that may grow into at-one-ment with t he patient’s innermost emotional reality of unthinkable breakdown and catastrophic psychic trauma (Winnicott and late Bion). This dimension, w ith its profound ontological implications, engenders markedly new possib ilities for extending the reach of psychoanalytic treatment to more dist urbed patients and difficult treatment situations. It goes beyond recent analytic notions of intersubjectivity and witnessing to more radical pa tient-analyst deep-level analytic oneness. Dr. Eshel will provide four c linical examples (Symington, Ogden, and two of her own), and a personal example by Israeli writer David Grossman, and highlight how withnessing presence converges with and differs from other ways of profound intercon nectedness, as described by Ogden, Ferro, Grotstein, Eigen, Botella & Bo tella’s ”Psychic Figurability,” and de M’Uzan’s “Psychologic al Chimera.”\n\n \n\nIn Dr. Eshel's view, the ontological experience of analytic oneness becomes an experience and language of new possibilit y, especially within states of breakdown, devastation, core deadness, an d emptiness. It is the place wherein lies the very heart of psychoanalys is and, she would add, its wonder.\n\n \n\n \n\nAll times are PACIFIC TIME\n\n \n\nSchedule\n\n \n\n10:00 - 10:15 am\n \nWelcome and introd uctions\n\n10:15 - 11:30 am \n \nOfra Eshel: The Spectrum of Analytic Oneness\n\n11:30 am - 12:00 pm\n \nQ&A & discussion with the participa nts\n\n12:00 - 12:30 pm\n \nBreak\n\n12:30 - 1:15 pm\n \nDavid G.
