Psychodynamic Consultation Group for Therapists
Clinical work inevitably brings moments of uncertainty, curiosity, and emotional intensity. Even experienced therapists encounter situations in which the meaning of a patient’s behavior, the emotional atmosphere of the treatment, or their own responses feel difficult to fully understand. Psychodynamic consultation offers a reflective space to think deeply about these moments.
This consultation group is designed for psychotherapists who wish to explore their clinical work through a psychodynamic and psychoanalytic lens. Together we will examine clinical material with attention to unconscious processes, relational patterns, and the emotional experience of both patient and therapist.
Particular attention will be given to:
Transference and countertransference dynamics
The emotional field of the therapeutic relationship
Unconscious communication and enactments
Defenses and character structure
Impasses, stalemates, and therapeutic ruptures
The therapist’s subjective experience in the work
The group emphasizes deepening clinical understanding. Participants are invited to present ongoing cases and reflect together on the psychological meaning of the material that emerges in treatment.
Consultation groups often provide therapists with a thoughtful and collegial space for slowing down and thinking about the work.
This group is appropriate for:
Psychotherapists interested in psychodynamic thinking
Clinicians seeking consultation on complex or long-term cases
Therapists wishing to deepen their understanding of transference and countertransference
Early-career and experienced clinicians who value reflective clinical dialogue
Participants may present cases or attend as observers depending on the session. The atmosphere is collaborative, respectful, and grounded in the shared commitment to understanding the complexity of therapeutic work.
Format
Ongoing small consultation group
Case-centered discussion
Open to licensed clinicians and advanced trainees
Held via telehealth
