What unconscious processes may be active within the analytic field of patient and analyst when clinical moments enter the awareness of one or both participants initially feeling random or arbitrary? As these seemingly random and arbitrary moments emerge unbidden, what shape may these emerging experiences take as they effervesce at the fringe of our awareness? How might we capture these emerging experiences in their embryonic form and hold them long enough to grow them into meaningful moments of relational contact? In this presentation I aim to illustrate how clinical moments that initially feel arbitrary or random may capture unconscious bidirectional communications within the analytic field that hold the potential for significant meanings if we can linger in these seemingly random moments long enough to let our imaginations act.
Learning Objectives:
1. Participants will be able to provide a clinical example where moments that initially feel random or arbitrary may capture unconscious bidirectional communications that hold potential for significant meanings.
2. Participants will be able to identify how the use of an imaginative objecta shared scenecan form a bridge between initial seemingly random moments and moments of meaningful relational contact and understanding.
3. Participants will be able to discuss how Interpersonal/Relational Field theory may inform technical ways to think about and work with these seemingly random or arbitrary moments.
