Current controversies in psychoanalysis include ideas about action and enactment in the treatment. Is
action necessary? What does it communicate? What is the difference between action and enactment? Is
enactment, a mutual engagement in action, perhaps subtle, by therapist and patient, the only way to
access preverbal memory and unmentalized impulses and emotional states? Or is it a form of countertransference
resistance? How can the therapist become aware of an enactment and use this knowledge to further
the treatment? This seminar addresses these and other questions through discussion of case material.
