鈥榃hat do we really know about one another's actual way of behaving as analysts?鈥櫶齛sked James Strachey in 1943, complaining that what goes on in the consulting room 鈥榗ontinues to be wrapped in an unholy mystery.鈥 听In 2002, realising that many years of meetings and conferences had still not enabled psychoanalysts to share with each other what they actually do in their consulting rooms, the European Psychoanalytic Federation (EPF) created a Working Party on Comparative Clinical Methods to investigate. 听The CCM team conducted over one thousand workshops across four continents exploring different analysts鈥 ways of working using a method designed to promote understanding rather than judgement. 听The project鈥檚 findings have just been published along with a new framework created to enable structured reflection on clinical work.

In this conference, we will share our discoveries about the kinds of assumptions that different analysts necessarily make (1) about the analytic setting, (2) about how the unconscious ideas that patients have are to be inferred, (3) about how those unconscious ideas and impulses create a patient鈥檚 troubles, and (4) about how the analytic process brings about change. 听We will introduce participants to eleven questions they can ask themselves about any analytic session to clarify and reflect on their own assumptions. 听There will be ample time for discussion and networking and those attending in person can participate in clinical seminars road-testing the new framework.
