A More Usable Winnicott

Presenter: Kenneth Newman, M.D.      Discussant: Paul C. Holinger, M.D.

Kenneth Newman, M.D. is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis.  He co-authored, with Howard Bacal, Theories of Object Relations: Bridges to Self Psychology (Columbia University Press, 1989). Dr. Newman has published several articles on the usable object, including (with C. Kligerman and D.M. Terman), “Countertransference: Its Role in Facilitating the Use of the Object” (The Annual of Psychoanalysis, 1988); “Winnicott Goes to the Movies: The False Self in Ordinary People” (Psychoanalytic Quarterly, 1996); “Disclosure, Countertransference, and the Promotion of Usability” (The Annual of Psychoanalysis, 1996); and “The Usable Analyst: The Role of the Affective Engagement of the Analyst in Reaching Usability” (The Annual of Psychoanalysis, 1999).  

Paul C. Holinger, M.D. is a Training and Supervising Analyst, Child Supervising Analyst, and Co-Chair of the Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Training Program at the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis.  He is Professor of Psychiatry at Rush Medical College.  Dr. Holinger has authored articles and books in psychiatric epidemiology, psychoanalysis, and infant and child development, including (with D. Offer, J.T. Barter, and C.C. Bell) Suicide and Homicide Among Adolescents (The Guilford Press, 1994) and Violent Deaths in the United States (The Guilford Press, 1987).  His most recent book, What Babies Say Before They Can Talk: The Nine Signals Infants Use To Express Their Feelings (Simon & Schuster, 2003), was a Book-of-the Month Club Selection and has been translated into several languages, including Spanish, Chinese, and Arabic.  Recent publications include, “Further issues in the psychology of affect and motivation: A developmental perspective” (Psychoanalytic Psychology, 2008) and Winnicott, Tomkins, and the psychology of affect (Clinical Social Work Journal, 2009).

Purpose: This presentation will examine how we can conceptualize the inner world of a child following failure in good enough caretaking.  The purpose is to more fully appreciate how Winnicott’s model of development, or of failures in this area, explains anxiety and the need for significant internal reorganization.  The resultant character will reflect, especially in its pathological form, the way the child had to shift adaptively/maladaptively to manage unintegrated tension and unmanaged affects.

Educational Objectives: Participants will: 1) expand their knowledge on the central role of affects and especially the failure in their early management in the creation of pathological adaptation; 2) obtain a clearer understanding of the relationship between early environmental failure and the nature of anxiety within a Winnicott model; and 3) formulate an expansion of the concept of leading edge of need by conceiving of two dimensions of failure and hence needs for not only a new experience with responsiveness to the “true self” but also for a new experience with affects.
