Object Relations Technique
Spring Quarter, Second Year, 2007
Instructor: Jeanne Bailey, M. D.
11:30-12:45
In this course we will be augmenting the previous courses on Klein and Object
Relations in the Theory Track. Looking at the writings of British and American
psychoanalysts as they apply and modify ideas about the relationship between
intrapsychic drives and external objects as they form internal representations. We will
consider how the emphasis placed upon intrapsychic or environmental factors effects
technical work in the consulting room. In particular we shall consider the role of the
environment in determining the shape of internal objects and the analysand's ability to
make use of the analyst through concepts like projective identification, countertransference
usage, object usage, and symbolization. We will consider the contrasts
between Winnicott, Klein and Kohut's ideas. Modern Klein , Self Psychology and
Relational Theory and Technique will be explored further in the Third year. Several
papers are taken from several books and the books are listed below. The * marks those
papers available on PEP CD-ROM. I look forward to our discussions on these topics.
