SUMMARY:Historical\, Intergenerational\, and Cultural Transmission of Trauma
DESCRIPTION:Historical\, Intergenerational\, and Cultural Transmission of Trauma\nwith Irit Felsen\, PhD \nThursday\, March 6th\, 2025 6:00 pm-8:00 pm at ICP\nApproved for 2 CE Credits! \n\nIrit Felsen\, Ph.D.\, will be presenting on the intergenerational transmission of parental/ancestral trauma in different groups\, highlighting the most important aspects of these processes; many of which are common and some unique differences. The lecture will focus on empirical research and clinical literature on survivors of the Holocaust and their families\, as this is still the largest body of literature in this field. The research has by now covered the lifespan of survivors and their children\, who are now entering old age\, The mental health professions have not readily accepted the validity of the concept of historical trauma\, and the evidence from Holocaust families has opened the gate for research of historical trauma in other groups\, including the Indigenous nations of America and the descendants of Black slaves in America. \nPotential risks for loss of empathy inherent to the confrontation of trauma therapists with stories of brutality and sadism presented by their patients will be also discussed\, as well as strategies to prevent such emotional biases from interfering with good therapy. \n\nAbout Presenters:  \nIrit Felsen\, Ph.D.\, is a clinical psychologist born in Israel\, living in NY\, specializing in the treatment of trauma and traumatic loss. Her clinical work has focused on Holocaust Survivors and their descendants\, and her research on intergenerational transmission has been published in peer-reviewed journals and book chapters. She taught for 14 years at Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology and is an Adjunct Professor at Columbia University in NYC\, Co-Chair of the Trauma Work Group at the NGO Committee on Mental Health in Consultative Relationship to the United Nations\, and Chair of the Older Adults Work Group within the Covid-19 APA Interdisciplinary Task Force. \nFor any questions\, including those about accessibility or to request accommodations\, please contact Daniella Ortiz at facts@icpnyc.org.\nAn important note about CEUs: ICP is an approved provider of continuing education credits for social workers\, mental health counselors\, marriage and family therapists\, and psychoanalysts through the New York Department of Education.

SUMMARY:It’s Complicated: Navigating Infidelity and Consensual Nonmonogamy in Couple Therapy
DESCRIPTION:It’s Complicated: \nNavigating Infidelity and Consensual Nonmonogamy in Couple Therapy\nwith Jean Malpas\, LMHC-D\, LMFT-D and Michele Scheinkman\, LCSW \nFriday\, February 28th\, 2025 3:00pm-7:00pm at ICP\nApproved for 4 CE Credits! \nAll couples navigate a delicate balance between freedom and loyalty in their relationships. Decisions about sexual fidelity and loyalty\, whether explicit or implicit\, are shaped by each partner’s temperament\, vulnerabilities\, identities\, family legacies\, cultural norms and\, sometimes\, by fractures that arise in the primary relationship. Impasses often evolve in these situations. This workshop integrates Michele Scheinkman’s approach to infidelity\, the Vulnerability Cycle\, and Jean Malpas’ integrative framework on gender and sexual complexity to provide therapists with effective tools for addressing these challenges. Participants will explore key conceptual dimensions and interventions designed to help couples move beyond reactivity toward mutual understanding\, negotiation and deeper connection. Through theoretical presentations\, video demonstrations\, and group discussions\, clinicians will gain: \n\nA non-moralistic understanding of impasses related to monogamy and non-monogamy;\nGreater sensitivity to intersectional factors\, including intrapersonal dynamics\, multigenerational legacies and cultural influences;\nPractical skills to interrupt destructive interactional cycles and work compassionately with both partners to promote repair and agreement.\n\nThe workshop will start by presenting Michele Scheinkman’s Vulnerability Cycle and Multi-Level Approach as well as conceptual and clinical approaches to gender diversity and consensual nonmonogamy in couple therapy. It will review the tenets of intersectional integrative couple therapy\, including the understanding of individual and couple’s dilemmas through the lenses of familial\, contextual and cultural experiences of self\, relationship\, belonging and inclusion. A couple of case vignettes will be presented through hybrid case summary and videos\, emphasizing effectively dealing with affairs\, desire inside and outside the relationships\, as well as exploration of non-monogamous arrangements. The clinical material will be used to demonstrate the therapeutic frameworks as well as specific couple therapy skills\, including tracking a vulnerability cycle\, identifying intrapsychic conflicts and motivations as well as the impact of sociocultural dynamics on the couple’s impasse and dilemmas. \n  \nAbout Presenters:  \nJean Malpas\, LMHC-D\, LMFT-D\, is a queer-identified psychotherapist and trainer in private practice in New York City. He founded of the Gender & Family Project at the Ackerman Institute for the Family and co-founded the Couples & Intimacy Project with Peggy Papp and Michele Scheinkman.

SUMMARY:In-Person Lecture: Risking Intimacy and Creative Transformation in Psychoanalysis\,  Lauren Levine\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:In-Person Lecture: Risking Intimacy and Creative Transformation in Psychoanalysis\, \nLauren Levine\, PhD \n \nIn this presentation\, I will consider the transformative power of stories to create shared symbolic meaning and coherence out of ungrieved trauma. Through evocative clinical stories\, I'll explore creativity as transformative\, emergent in the clinical process\, drawing on film\, dance\, and dreams as frames for experience exceeding what words alone can capture. In analysis\, we dwell in stories\, in associations\, echoes and reverberations. Apres coup. In the enigmatic and ineffable. As an analyst and writer\, I’m interested in the stories we tell\, individually and collectively\, the interstitial gaps created by unmetabolized trauma\, and the potential for an intimate psychoanalytic process to help patients reclaim their memory and creative agency and become the storyteller of their own lives. \n  \nFriday\, January 24\, 2025\, from 7 to 9 pm\, in person at ICP\n Refreshments and conversation at 9 pm following the lecture\nApproved for 2 NYS CE Credits!\n\nDr. Lauren Levine is Joint Editor-in-Chief of Psychoanalytic Dialogues. Her book\, Risking Intimacy and Creative Transformation in Psychoanalysis\, was published by Routledge in April 2023.

She is on the Faculty of NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis\, and The Stephen Mitchell Relational Study Center\, where she’s former Co-Director of the One Year Program in Relational Studies. Lauren is Visiting Faculty at the Institute for Relational and Group Psychotherapy in Athens\, Greece\, and the Tampa Bay Psychoanalytic Society.

SUMMARY:In-Person Lecture: The Gendered Body as Home: Two Analysts’ Journeys “Coming Out” to Their Patients
DESCRIPTION:The Gendered Body as Home:\nTwo Analysts’ Journeys “Coming Out” to Their Patients\n  \nwith Gabriel DeCicco\, LCSW-R and\nBalin Anderson\, LCSW with\nSandra Silverman as discussant\nFriday\, November 15th\, 2024 7pm-9pm\nRefreshments and conversation at 9 following the lecture\n  \nApproved for 2 NYS CE Credits!\nTogether\, Gabriel DeCicco\, LCSW and Balin Anderson\, LCSW explore the clinical impacts of an analyst’s pregnancy and an analyst’s gender transition; the attendant body changes impact treatment in significant ways. Transitioning to a congruent gender identity or choosing to gestate brings a therapist face to face with their own embodiment; heightened attention to embodiment saturates the therapeutic dyad. A pregnant body is home to the growing baby; a pregnant person grapples with feeling at home with oneself alongside unprecedented changes. A gender transition reflects an effort to come home to one’s body; to belong within the contours of one’s own body. Balin and Gabriel will highlight the interplay of gender\, sexuality\, and identity inherent in these embodied gestational experiences - that of the analyst giving birth and of the analyst being re-born. \nAbout the Presenters: \nGabriel DeCicco\, LCSW-R is a transgender psychoanalyst who has worked in the field of mental health for 20 years. He has an MSW from NYU School of Social Work and is a graduate of both the Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program and the Psychoanalytic Program at ICP. He was a Clinical Assistant Professor at NYU Langone Medical Center from 2008 to 2015. He is the President of DeCicco Psychotherapy & Consulting\, LLC\, and has a full-time private practice in Manhattan\, where he sees patients both in-person and virtually in the tri-state area. \nBalin Anderson\, LCSW\nA psychoanalyst in private practice in Denver\, Colorado\, Balin Anderson LCSW is a graduate of the ICP's Psychoanalytic Program. She earned her MSW from the George Warren Brown School of Social Work at Washington University in St. Louis\, Missouri. Balin began her career as a social worker at Planned Parenthood of New York City; she also served as a medical interpreter for Spanish-speaking patients. Balin is a faculty member at the Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis. \nSandra Silverman\, LCSW\n \nSandra Silverman LCSW is faculty and supervisor at ICP\, NIP\, and the Stephen Mitchell Center for Relational Studies where she is also co-chair of the committee on Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion. Sandra is an associate editor of Psychoanalytic Dialogues. She is in private practice in New York City and the Hudson Valley. \n  \nFor any questions\, please contact Dominika Mazurová at SICP@icpnyc.org. \nAn important note about CEUs: ICP is an approved provider of continuing education credits for social workers\, mental health counselors\, marriage and family therapists\, and psychoanalysts through the New York Department of Education.

SUMMARY:Cultivating Change: Case Studies Illustrating the Use of Multiple Lenses in Engaging Substance-Using Clients
DESCRIPTION:Cultivating Change:\nCase Studies Illustrating the Use of Multiple Lenses in Engaging Substance-Using Clients\nwith Jen Levy\, Ph.D\, Sonya Lazarevic\, MD\, and Nicole Kosanke\, Ph.D \n\nSaturday\, October 26th\, 2024 10am-2:45pm on Zoom\nApproved for 4.5 CE Credits! \n\nThis is an interactive\, multi-presenter day of programming for clinicians working with individuals and families with substance use challenges. This workshop will provide the essentials of a harm reduction/mindfulness approach with Jen Levy\, Ph.D.\, how to use addiction and functional medicine with Sonya Lazarevic\, MD\, and treatment approaches for families and loved ones of those impacted by substance use issues with Nicole Kosanke\, Ph.D. \nAddressing Addictive Issues from a Harm Reduction Framework \nFollowing an overview of the current status of the addiction treatment field\, there will be a discussion of a harm reduction-informed approach that encompasses a range of positive change goals. Case presentations will address both the underlying meaning and function of addictive issues\, along with offering mindfulness-based skills to support the change process. The impact of trauma on the development and treatment of addictive issues will be explored as well. Participants will learn practical skills to work with cravings and reduce risk through guided practices that can be applied in a range of clinical settings. \nConventional and Integrative Approaches in Addiction Psychiatry \nThe discussion will outline medications prescribed in stages of use\, from abstinence to harm reduction\, focusing on the most common substances of use. An integrative approach will be mapped out\, including layers of care from a functional and regenerative approach. Psychotherapists' role as critical pieces in front-line engagement will be explored. A case example will be used to encourage an interactive discussion. \nThe Invitation To Change Approach: How to Help a Loved One Change \nBeing in a close relationship with someone who is using substances is often stressful and confusing. Outlining the Invitation to Change approach will highlight three major areas of research-based strategies for having a positive impact on a loved one: 1) understanding motivation and the change process in a constructive way\, 2) using positive reinforcement and effective communication tools\, and 3) practicing skills of self-awareness/compassion. Participants will learn practical applications within these categories for how clients can take care of themselves while also influencing a loved one in positive ways. \nAbout Presenter:  \nJenifer Levy\, Ph.D.\, is a licensed psychologist with a private practice in New York and New Jersey.\nDr. Levy specializes in the treatment of addictive issues and trauma from a harm reduction framework that is collaborative\, compassionate\, and non-judgmental.
