For addressing the intimacies of the relational\, intersubjective field? For attunement to deep affect and the complexities of our experiential worlds? What does it mean to work with “vulnerable populations\,” with trauma\, in a time when many across the left and right claim the mantle of “victimization”? When “protecting the vulnerable” can both be a rallying cry for social justice and a logic legitimizing draconian immigration and criminal justice policies to target racialized “military age males” and “men in women’s bathrooms” to protect (white) “women and children”? Drawing on a decolonial perspective grounded in the work of Frantz Fanon\, this workshop will work-through these tensions by articulating an integrative approach to case formulation and treatment that mentalizes the intrapsychic\, interpersonal\, and sociopolitical simultaneously. Beyond case formulation and treatment\, this workshop will also provide clinicians with tools for mentalizing politically on the role of “protecting the vulnerable” outside the consulting room and make sense of how the language of trauma and victimization serve reactionary\, indeed psychopathological\, ends. Case vignettes will be offered throughout to illustrate these points\, and gesture toward pragmatic tools for addressing such quandaries and enactments in-session and without. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n LEARNING OBJECTIVES\nUpon completion of the program participants should be able to: \n\nIntegrate the intrapsychic\, interpersonal\, and sociopolitical in their case formulations.\nIdentify in culture and media how the language of trauma and victimhood can both articulate a call for justice and re-enshrine systems of oppression.\nVerbalize how to balance attention to the psychic and the social in the transference-counter-transference relation.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n PRESENTER\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n DANIEL JOSÉ GAZTAMBIDE\, PSY.D. is assistant professor of psychology at Queens College\, where he is the director of the Frantz Fanon Lab for Decolonial Psychology\, and a faculty member in the Department of Critical Psychology at the CUNY Graduate Center.
