SUMMARY:The Significance of The Sibling Experience: Its Impact on Development\, Identity and Character
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsoring with MPG Consulting NYC \n\n\n\n Invite you to our Sunday Dialogue Program \n\n\n\nThe Significance of The Sibling Experience: \n\n\n\nIts Impact on Development\, Identity and Character \n\n\n\nSusan Klett\, PhD\, PsyD\, LCSW-R \n\n\n\nSunday\, October 15\, 2023\, 1:00-3:30pm (EDT)\, on Zoom \n\n\n\n3 CE credit hours for Social Workers\, Mental Health Counselors and Licensed Psychoanalysts holding Licenses in New York State    \n\n\n\nAlthough siblings accompany us within our family of origin throughout all of our developmental stages and are often the longest relationship in our lives\, scarce attention has been paid to conscious and unconscious influences of siblings in psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice. It is our sibling(s) who first socialize us into the world of peers. The aim of this presentation is to widen the scope of clinical practice to include listening for lateral (sibling) transference and countertransference; to recognize and understand how a patient can “other” or be the recipient of “othering” by a sibling and its’ lifelong internal and external implications. Juliet Mitchell’s concepts of “the Law of the mother” and “Seriality\,” will be used to examine significant ways a mother can diminish the potential of “othering” and enhance sibling relationships. We will also examine Juliet Mitchell’s “Sibling Thinking Theory” in opening up ways to listen for both vertical and lateral dimensions of psychic life and for recognizing when they intersect\, contributing to shifts in the intersubjective fields\, altering relationships and shaping development. I will introduce “Developmental Sibling Relational Systems Theory” and open up space for an in-depth dialogue. Clinical examples will illustrate the necessity of both concepts to fully understand the complexity of an individual’s psychic life. \n\n\n\nPresenter: \n\n\n\nSusan A.
