This ambitious project required knowledge of racial and class challenges and the way I approached it was to say: I am here to learn about you and your community. In the first six months, I sat in the classrooms and met with the director on a weekly basis. What follows is what I learned and how I think our mental health team was effective in having a strong therapeutic impact on the school environment, the teaching staff, and the families. By the third year of the project, the school environment was transformed into a growth-promoting, good-enough caregiving environment where attachment relationships developed between the children and the teaching staff. This model of early childhood mental health intervention/prevention in a high-risk community can be replicated in other public preschool settings. Even though, initially, this model requires significant funding, in the long run it is an economically advisable way to prevent a significant number of at-risk children from ending up in special ed programs or in the juvenile court system at great cost to the community and state.","PeriodicalId":45962,"journal":{"name":"Psychoanalytic Study of the Child","volume":"76 1","pages":"217 - 226"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44232022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although not a child psychoanalyst himself, his interest in children and adolescence was immense, perhaps due to his upbringing in Vienna and to the influence of his parents Marianne and Ernst Kris. He liked to joke about having been on Freud’s couch himself, as his mother was pregnant with him during her analysis with Freud. His father was a founding editor of this Annual in 1945, and his mother stepped into his role following his death in 1957. Tony’s knowledge about the theory and technique of psychoanalysis, as well as its history, and his warmth and sharp intellect were matched by the major contributions he made to the field. He was a regular contributor to these pages for more than four decades. In his 1981 paper, “On giving advice to parents in analysis” (PSC 36: 151– 162), he took the position that analysts of adult patients who are parents should at times temporarily address the well-being of their child directly, when failure to do so “would be a breach of trust.” Tony will be deeply missed.

Refusing to change our traditional ways of work and training will lead child analysis to go the way of the dinosaurs. There is already ample evidence that our field is dying as manifested in decreasing numbers of child analytic cases, child analytic candidates, and child analytic teachers and supervisors. This paper introduces a section devoted to various contemporary shifts and ideas that represent the sort of evolutionary changes required to ensure the survival and revival of child and adolescent psychoanalysis. These transformations involve expanding the role and presence of child analysis, integrating child and adult psychoanalytic curricula, redefining child analytic frequency, and incorporating parent work into child analytic theory of technique.","PeriodicalId":45962,"journal":{"name":"Psychoanalytic Study of the Child","volume":"75 1","pages":"315 - 326"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"58906507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
