2020-2021 ALUMNI ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION SERIES
Participants will discuss approximately three journal articles per monthly meeting. The readings include a few classic papers, but most are contemporary. While they include theoretical,developmental, and applied topics, most have a clinical emphasis. Each meeting will be facilitated by a CFPS faculty member, alumni (or guest facilitator), two of whom authored articles on the reading list this year.
Meetings are scheduled on the 1st Friday of the month from July 2020 through May 2021. The group will meet from 11:30 AM until 1:00 PM, through video sessions only (until further notice). Log-in information will only be sent to those who register at least two hours before each session

Alumni Group Round Table Discussion Series
September 11, 2020 11:30 am to 1:00 pm - Video Session
Shared Trauma: 9/11, Hurricanes, and COVID-19
Facilitator: Jean Goodwin, MD
This discussion will focus on how the clinical process is affected when clinicians and their clients are experiencing the same trauma. It seems fitting that our discussion will take place on the 19th anniversary of 9/11 in that one of our readings (Saakvitne, 2002) focuses on a therapist’s practice in the aftermath of the terroristic attacks on New York. In cases of shared trauma, according to Saakvitne, the clinicians are subject to the combined effects of direct trauma, secondary trauma affecting significant others, and vicarious trauma from our clients. Boulanger (2013) and our own Jean Goodwin (2019) described how Hurricanes Katrina and Harvey affected clinical practice on the Gulf Coast. Goodwin reminds us that trauma does not occur in isolation, but dredges up memories and rekindles emotions about prior crises as well. Boulanger found that the clinicians’ efforts to contain client anxieties may challenge boundaries between self and other, inner and outer, signifier and signified, public and private, and fantasy and reality. Finally, we will explore how the coronavirus pandemic recently left us feeling raw, vulnerable and/or sad and grief-stricken, while wreaking havoc on our lives and practices. The pandemic is changing the most basic ways in which we meet with clients, and yet somehow forcing adaptations.
