Introduction

This course will use a psychoanalytic lens to view the progression from early adolescence to emerging adulthood. We will examine sub phases of adolescence, then move into common treatment issues. We will address working with issues around gender and sexuality, individuation, and the role of adolescence in treatment of adults.

If you would like an overview of child development, please use Gilmore and Meersand, (2015), The Little Book of Child and Adolescent and Development. New York: Oxford Press.

Learning Objectives

Participants will be able to:

  1. identify the characteristics associated with early, middle, late adolescence, and emerging adulthood.
  2. understand primary developmental themes: individuation, identity, gendered experience, sexuality, and developing resilience.
  3. describe the manic defenses, transference implications, and common countertransference experiences when working with adolescents.
  4. apply knowledge of adolescent development to work with adults.
