PINC International Visiting Scholar Joshua Durban

with Jed Sekoff, Rachael Peltz and Facilitator Alice Shaw

Saturday May 4, 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM

What is the sense of an internal home? A complex achievement developed in states of object relating, it can be severely disrupted by infantile, transgenerational and immigration traumas. “Nowhere-ness” arises from overwhelming anxieties of being, leaving the self in states of nameless grief, dread and devastation. Durban, Sekoff and Peltz will discuss the psychoanalyst’s role in promoting the creation of an internal home through enlarging the patient’s capacity for grief and mourning and in the transformative processes of linking and mantling, the “double helix” of mental life.
