Learning Objectives
By studying the termination process the clinical associates will gain:
- a deeper understanding of the importance of the termination phase in analysis. This increased understanding will help the clinical associate co-create a terminations experience that consolidates the work of analysis and deepens the analytic experience producing more durable and lasting intrapsychic changes for the analysand.
- an understanding of the analytic material that suggests a readiness for termination, combined with an understanding of the potential resistance to and avoidance of experiencing termination will result in the clinical associates and their analysands being better able to recognize and analyze the affects stimulated and the conflicts that emerge during terminations.
