⌬ Lecture №16 | Lacan, Part I: Imaginary, Symbolic, & Semblants
In this podcast lecture, I will discuss some (but definitely not all) of the concepts that make up the much broader field of Lacanian psychoanalysis. I've struggled to prepare for these lectures. I've struggled a lot. I've spent many years working to understand Lacan's ideas and his ideas'…

⌬ Lecture №14 | Object Relations: Winnicott [OPTIONAL!]
Hi, Welcome to the fourth in a series of podcast lectures, which will focus on the work of Donald Winnicott. This lecture follows lectures on the work of Melanie Klein and Ronald Fairbairn, and I'll be referring back to concepts I talked about in those prior lectures. So, while it is not…

⌬ Lecture №13 | Object Relations: Fairbairn [OPTIONAL!]
Fairbairn is one of the more difficult-to-understand thinkers we will be tackling in this class. His work is not easy to read, and I'd even say it is impossible to read if you don't already have a good grasp of Freudian concepts. This is because (I think) so much of what Fairbairn is doing is...

⌬ Lecture №12 | Melanie Klein [OPTIONAL!]
Hello, This is the second in a series of podcast lectures on Object Relations Theories. This podcast lecture, and the several that will come after it, will focus on one specific object relations thinker. I hope that this will result in several short podcast lectures that add to what your text had...

⌬ Lecture №11 | Object Relations Theories: An Overview
Hello! This is the first of two podcast lectures that will cover Object Relations Theories. You, my astute listener, will notice that I said object relations theories --plural. I did not say theory --singular. This is important! Your text pointed out. Object relations theory is the term that has...

⌬ Lecture №10 | The Relational Turn
I want to start with a bit of a disclaimer. There are some psychoanalytic theories I know a lot about and some I know less about. Relational theory is definitely in the latter group. It is a theory that I've only dabbled in but I have not spent nearly as much time with as I have in interpersonal...

⌬ Lecture №9 | Attachment
Review Ego psychology – Made mainly in America, has the goal of making the individual's ego stronger more flexible. This means increasing what is called ego functioning and become less defensive. This theory relies on the economic model, which postulates that there is a finite and limited amount…

⌬ Lecture №7 | Ego Psychology
No review today, for two reasons. First reason - because everything that we’ve covered before now, at this point you know it. And if you don’t know by now, then you’re probably just not gonna know it. The second reason - all of the podcast lectures before this one or one unit, the first unit, the...

⌬ Lecture №6 | Transference, the Ego, & the Stories We Tell to Make Stuff "Makse Sense"
Intro: In this Podcast lecture, I do a more extensive review of the concepts of transference & the ego. After that, I try to explain how both of these are stories that we tell, filled with errors, and how it is impossible to have no errors in these stories. I also try to explain how the process…

⌬ Lecture №5 | Pleasure & Instinct v. Enjoyment & Drive; The Shift to the Structural & Economic Model
In this lecture, I talk about Pleasure & Instinct v. Enjoyment & Drive, the shift from the topographical model of the unconscious, pre-conscious, conscious to the structural model of id, ego, and superego. I also do a short bit on the economic model of the mind. Review 1. The unconscious is a…

⌬ Lecture №4 | Transference
Review: Psychoanalysis is more interested in things (behaviors, patterns, desires, etc.) that don't work and less interested in things that do. Things like the unconscious, the return of the repressed, and drive objects. The Unconscious is a part of you that has a mind of its own. That mind is...

⌬ Lecture №3 | The Drive & Other Things that Don't Make Sense
The opening paragraphs of the chapter for this week speaks to how much we (and by "we" I mean social workers and others who work in mental health) like things that make sense, we enjoy being able to explain stuff. For this reason, we are, by and large, drawn to theories and systems that help us…

⌬ Lecture №2 | The Unconscious Ex-sists & The Return of the Repressed
Content: Review -- The unconscious is a part of you with a mind & desires of its own. Sometimes what the unconscious desires/plans is not what you consciously desire/plan. The unconscious is like a ghost haunting our day-to-day lives. The unconscious ghost (desire) is trying to tell us something,...
