What are the patient’s unconscious fears, needs, and desires? What is the particular trajectory of the material in a clinical hour? In a brief crash course supported by a powerpoint presentation, Cordelia Schmidt-Hellerau will elaborate on her revised drive theory and how it helps to analyze the patient’s unconscious fantasies, conflicts, and aggression. Dhipthi Brundage will present a case to invite the discussion of the clinical usefulness of these concepts.
Learning Objectives
- Participants will be able to explain the ways in which drive theory can inform the analyst’s responses to patients’ unconscious conflicts and fantasies.
- Participants will identify two clinical manifestations of the preservative drive.
