SUMMARY:SICP Friday Lecture: Erotic Entanglements: Traversing the Forcefield of Dependency and Desire
DESCRIPTION:SICP Friday Lecture:\nErotic Entanglements: Traversing the Forcefield of Dependency and Desire\,\nwith Sarah Schoen\, Ph.D.\n— Earn 2 NYS CE Credits —\nat ICP\nfrom 7 – 9 pm EST\nREGISTER HERE\n  \nPlease note: This event will not be streamed or recorded. \nHow can psychoanalytic clinicians engage the generative potentials of eroticism while navigating the intensity\, ambiguity\, and anxiety that accompany such experiences? In this presentation\, Dr. Schoen explores how erotic material can carry both defensive and progressive meanings\, with the aim of expanding clinicians’ capacities to invite\, tolerate\, and think about erotic dynamics in the analytic relationship. Drawing on contemporary relational and developmental perspectives\, Dr. Schoen will present a detailed clinical account illustrating sexuality’s dense entanglement with basic issues of vitality and coming alive. Developmental trauma\, sexual charge\, disintegrative anxieties\, core fantasies of transformation\, and concretized longings for physical touch permeate eroticism in the space of breakdown.Highlighting how both patient and analyst regulate anxiety by avoiding these unstable intersections\, Dr. Schoen proposes that it is through delving into these overlaps that the central issues of being and becoming can emerge. \n \n  \nSarah Schoen\, Ph.D.\, is Faculty\, Supervising\, and Training Analyst at the William Alanson White Institute\, Adjunct Clinical Professor of Psychology at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis\, and Invited Faculty at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. She is Executive Editor at Psychoanalytic Dialogues\, on the editorial board of Contemporary Psychoanalysis\, and co-editor of Patriarchy and its Discontents: Psychoanalytic Perspectives (2023). She is in private practice in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. \n\nAn important note about CEs: ICP is an approved provider of continuing education credits for social workers\, mental health counselors\, marriage and family therapists\, creative arts therapists\, psychologists and psychoanalysts through the New York Department of Education.

SUMMARY:The Complicated World of Family Cutoffs\, Part II: The Work of Repair and Reconnection
DESCRIPTION:About This Event \nThe Complicated World of Family Cutoffs\, Part II: The Work of Repair and Reconnection \n\nPresenters: Tracy K. Ross\, LCSW & Judith Aronowitz\, RN\, LCSW\nFormat: In-Person & Live on Zoom\nDate: October 30th\, 2026\nTime: 2:00PM to 4:00PM (ET)\nContinuing Education: 2 NYS CE Credits\n\nRegistration \nExpanding on concepts introduced in our previous presentation\, but of equal value for those who didn’t attend\, this advanced clinical workshop focuses on therapeutic intervention with families experiencing estrangement\, emotional cutoff\, and significant relational rupture. The workshop moves from understanding family cutoff to the clinical work of assessing readiness for repair\, identifying conditions that make reconnection possible\, and intervening with family members whose experiences and narratives may differ substantially.\n\nThe workshop integrates family systems theory\, particularly Murray Bowen’s concepts of emotional cutoff\, differentiation\, triangles\, and multigenerational transmission\, with contemporary clinical approaches to attachment\, relational trauma\, mentalization\, and family estrangement. Karl Pillemer’s research on family estrangement and reconciliation also informs the workshop’s examination of the conditions that may facilitate repair.\nWhat you will learn: \n\nUse Bowen Family Systems theory to accurately spot the difference between protective relational distance and emotional cutoff.\nTo identify clinical indicators that suggest a family is ready to begin repair or reconnection work\nRecognize multigenerational patterns\, alliances\, and relational injuries that may contribute to the development and maintenance of family estrangement\nFormulate realistic treatment goals that distinguish repair from reconciliation and allow for multiple possible outcomes.\n\nPresenters: \nTracy Ross\, LCSW \n \nTracy Ross is a licensed clinical social worker\, couples and family therapist\, mediator\, collaborative divorce professional\, and parenting coordinator with more than 30 years of clinical experience. Her practice focuses on couples and families navigating relational rupture\, estrangement\, divorce\, and major family transitions. She has developed a particular area of clinical expertise in working with parents and adult children experiencing partial or complete estrangement and in helping families determine when and how relational repair may be possible. \nJudith Aronowitz\, RN\, LCSW \n \nJudith Aronowitz started her career as a Pediatric Nurse before realizing she was most drawn to healing relationships. She trained at the Ackerman Institute for the Family where she was a faculty member for 10 years on the Resilient Family project. She is also trained as a certified Discernment Counselor. Currently\, she is in Private Practice in NYC working with Individuals\, Couples\, and Families. She is passionate about systems thinking and theories and along with Tracy Ross has developed courses on Family work and presents throughout the country.

SUMMARY:SICP Friday Lecture: Wrestling with the Body: When Somatic Preoccupation Serves as an Escape
DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DATE | Registration coming soon\nSICP Friday Lecture\nWrestling with the Body:\nWhen Somatic Preoccupation Serves as an Escape\nAbigail Walch\, Amy Ragsdale\, Diana Halperin & Jess Eipper.\nFriday\, November 13\, 2026\nfrom 7 – 9 PM\nIn-person at ICP\nRefreshments and conversation following the lecture. \nPlease note: This event will not be streamed or recorded. \n  \nHow do clinicians work with patients whose bodily preoccupation serves a dissociative function and threatens to overwhelm the treatment? While psychoanalysis has historically diminished the importance of the body\, this presentation grapples with the challenges of listening to and thinking psychoanalytically about somatic manifestations. Through clinical vignettes from four distinct treatments\, this presentation will explore difficulties in symbolizing somatic expressions for both patient and analyst\, as well as illustrate ways therapists can utilize their own somatic experiences\, countertransference reverie\, and theoretical reframing as therapeutic tools and means of creating transitional space. \nBy situating these bodily manifestations within a psychoanalytic framework\, the presentation will demonstrate efforts to help patients move from unmetabolized somatic expressions and enactments toward an expanded capacity to mentalize. Attendees will gain insight into ways analysts can transform the overwhelmed clinical space into a collaborative arena with potential for psychological integration and symbolic meaning. \n  \nAmy Werner Ragsdale\, LCSW\, is a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst in NYC. She completed both the two-year Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and the four-year Psychoanalytic training programs at ICP. \nAbigail Walch\, LP\, treats individual adults and couples from her office in midtown Manhattan.
