A Silent Journey of Discovery | Sabas Castillo
Book ticketsOrganised by:
British Psychoanalytical Society (incorporating the Institute of Psychoanalysis)
Description
This seminar explores the early stages of psychoanalytic work with an adolescent, focusing on the emotional and clinical complexities that emerge in the first weeks of treatment. It highlights the challenges of engaging a young person with a difficult relational history, and the powerful countertransference responses experienced by the analyst.
Led by Sabas Castillo, the session offers insight into the delicate, often “silent” process of building understanding and connection in adolescent analysis, and the role of the therapist’s own emotional experience in shaping the work.
