Upcoming Program in collaboration with: The Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute What is Mine, Yours, Ours? Unpacking Enactments and the Threat of Being Known Presenter: Dale Gody, PhD, FABP Tuesday, May 20, 2025, at 7:00 – 9:00 PM Central time In person at the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute, And By Zoom
Dale Gody, Ph.D., FABP is a Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst at the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute where she teaches relational and advanced relational theory, psychoanalysis and feminism, and case report writing. She previously served as the Director of the Exploring Psychoanalysis Program at CPI. For over forty years she has presented papers at APSAA, APA Division 39, CAPP, IASPP on topics such as chance encounters between patient and therapist, maternal desire, analyst vulnerability, and countertransference. Her articles are published in the Journal of Psychoanalytic Psychology, International Journal of Psychoanalysis, and The International Journal of Controversial Discussions in Psychoanalysis. She is currently in private practice in Salt Lake City.
Drawing upon both relational and object relations theories, this presentation will explore the challenges the therapist faces in coming to understand “What just happened here?” From a two person model of mind, enactments are unconscious, inevitable, mutually co-constructed, and always contain an interaction of the patient’s and therapist’s attachment and object relationship patterns. The therapist’s anxiety about being known by the patient is often an impediment to the resolution of enactments. Using case material we will explore the possibilities not only for working through frustrating repetitive impasses, but also for enlivening generative enactments which move treatment forward and facilitate emotional growth not only for the patient, but also for the therapist.
