THE EROTIC TRANSFERENCE:
MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES
THE WILLIAM ALANSON WHITE INSTITUTE
20 WEST 74TH STREET
NEW YORK, NY 10023
SATURDAY, MAY 17TH
10:00 AM to 3:00 PM

This workshop will explore from a variety of perspectives both the
theoretical as well as clinical data on the complexity of the erotic
transference/ countertransference matrix. To ensure a diversity of
perspectives both gay and heterosexual, female and male analysts will
participate in the workshop and present clinical vignettes for discussion.
Some of the issues that will be examined are: How central is the erotic
transference to our work? Are there technical approaches that may
unwittingly inflame or suppress erotic material? How does one’s model of
therapeutic action affect the emergence of sexual feelings? Does the
erotic transference mask other conflicts and desires? How significant is
the analyst’s gender?
