Systemic Re-Transmission of Trauma: Defending Against the Lost and Found (Online Presentation)
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM (Eastern)
2 CE Credits for Psychoanalysts, Psychologists, and Social Workers
This case presentation will discuss the ongoing societal intrusions that emotionally handicapped the interracial therapeutic relationship of the psychoanalyst and the patient. The treatment began in an institutionalized setting with the children, who were searching for their lost maternal object, and then the therapeutic work centered on the mother and her search to find the lost self. The case illustrates various ways the human bond is disrupted by the intergenerational transmission of trauma and its impact on relational value.
