One-Session Program (2 CE Credits) Presenters:Jack Novick and Kerry Kelly Novick Discussants: Jane Hall, Kimberly Kleinman, and Donna Roth Smith
Date: Friday, May 18, 2018 Time: 8:00-10:00pm Location:Mt. Sinai’s Goldwurm Auditorium, Madison Ave @ 98th Street, NYC
At this event we will celebrate Jack and Kerry Novick’s contributions to our field, with special emphasis on their most recent book, “Freedom to Choose: Two Systems of Self-Regulation.” This is a fitting focus, as the book articulates a central strand of their developmental and clinical thinking from early work on beating fantasies in the 1960s, through writings on sadomasochism, to more recent formulations of a model of two systems of self-regulation.
The evening is planned as a collaborative engagement among the speakers and the audience, with the goal of thinking together about how psychoanalytic ideas evolve and can be made useful and accessible. Well known for their clarity and warmth, the Novicks will share experiences to illustrate their work. They will be joined by two distinguished colleagues, Donna Roth Smith and Kim Kleinman, who will talk about ways they have applied some of the Novicks’ concepts and technical approaches.
