Description: Even for those of us with prior tele-analytic experience, our sudden immersion in practicing tele-analytically during the pandemic caused a seismic shift in our ordinary way of practicing with all the psychic reverberations such a change evokes.
Now that the dust has settled some, we have an opportunity to reflect on what we’ve observed about the essential conditions for effective psychoanalytic work, the role of the external setting and physical presence, the role of the analyst’s internal setting, and what’s necessary for establishing and maintaining a useful analytic relationship.
