March 10, 2023 — Film: “Reflections on Empathy” with comments from Strozier
This film was Kohut’s last presentation, given a few days before his death. He reflects on the importance and relevance of empathy, taking him back to the beginning of the development of Self Psychology. “The Two Analyses of Mr. Z” is a provocative piece, describing the unsuccessful classical analysis of a patient followed, five years later, by the successful analysis of the same patient, by the same analyst, employing Self Psychological techniques.
Optional Reading
Kohut, H. (1979). The Two Analyses of Mr. Z. Int. J. Of Psychoanal. 60: 3-27.
