There can't be many therapists in America who didn't watch—and have an opinion about—the complicated clinical relationship between HBO's Mafia don Tony Soprano and his psychiatrist, Jennifer Melfi. Both the show and Dr. Melfi won awards from the American Psychoanalytic Association, and Tony's treatment is the only fictional therapy subject to attract a book-length analysis by a prominent psychiatrist, not to mention thousands of intense online therapy chat-room discussions. In this workshop, we'll explore how The Sopranos presents the clinical and ethical complexities of treatment, and what we can learn from the drama about facing risks and blurring boundaries when we ourselves do therapy. We'll also consider the possible benefits and potential drawbacks of doing traditional psychotherapy in a world of convoluted loyalties and moral danger. Finally, we'll watch lots of clips and have a good time. Note: this workshop fulfills many state board requirements for training in ethics and risk management.
