Course Description:
What defines analytic listening and distinguishes it from any other kind of psychotherapy is that it attempts to listen to the unconscious. In this class we will look at a variety of examples of analytic listening, and how it differs from ordinary listening. Analytic thinking and analytic speech are also unique to the analytic process because the analyst is constantly attempting to think about, understand, and communicate that understanding through interpretation of something of what is being unconsciously, rather than consciously, communicated.
