Learning Objectives:
As a result of attending this session, participants should be able to:
-
Differentiate normal versus pathological (compulsive) creative acts and their contexts
-
Explain the dynamic group tension as multiple individuals attempt to work together under racial pressure to manifest a position that manages the tension coming with differing ideals
-
Recognize the conscious and unconscious compromises, including disavowal of needs and the diminishing of self, in patients who search desperately for acceptance and connection—within the self and with others
