The Erotic Transference: When Murder is a Possibility
Andrea Celenza, Ph.D.
It's been said that in psychoanalysis, everything is about sex . . . except for sex, that's about aggression. What is meant by this clinical lore? What is an erotic transference, does it always happen, do we take it at face value and/or is there something behind it? What is the role of others and or the wider culture? This discussion will address these questions and place the erotic transference in clinical context. How to recognize and intervene with an erotic transference will also be forefront in the discussion. The use of clinical material will illustrate many of these questions.
Andrea Celenza, Ph.D. is an Assistant Clinical Professor at Harvard Medical School and Faculty at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and Massachusetts Institute for Psychoanalysis. She has authored and presented numerous papers on the evaluation and treatment of therapists who have engaged in sexual misconduct with a focus on training and supervisory issues. In 2006, she was the recipient of the Karl A. Menninger Memorial Award and the Felix & Helena Deutsch Prize for her paper, "The Threat of Male to Female Erotic Transference." Her book, Sexual Boundary Violations: Therapeutic, Supervisory and Academic Contexts, was published by Jason Aronson in 2007. She is in private practice in Lexington, Massachusetts.
