10:00am – 3:00pm est
a daylong Zoom seminar led by
Susan Schwartz, PhD
Contact hours: 4 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program.
The absent father effect is a love story, but an unrequited one. Harm is done due to the presence of absence, affecting a daughter—and the father--in body, mind, and soul. The father is an essential aspect of the psyche and significant for the daughter’s psychological and physical life as it is expressed personally and culturally. This also includes males who have absent father issues as well.
Aspects of the psyche, according to Jungian psychology, affected by the absent father include the negative father complex, puella archetype and updating the concept of the animus. The identification with or denial of the absent father effect has serious ramifications for development. The presentation focuses on the bleaker side of daughters and fathers’ relationships, taking seriously the ramifications from the lack as well as discovering the repair and hope.
Learning Objectives:
The participants will be able to:
1. Describe how the daughter carries the shadow of the father
2. Explain why the father is so absent in psychological theory
3. Describe how therapists work with the father projection in the transference and countertransference
4. Describe how the father absence can become filled
