Jason will look at where emotions sit within the CAT model before suggesting a way of grouping them in CAT terms under four broad headings: Borderline group, Narcissistic group, Attachment group and Healthy group. We will cover the CAT re-statement of important Kleinian concepts such as envy, gratitude, jealously and projective identification (malignant fusion) and do some work on putting emotions clearly on the client’s map.
In the afternoon session you will help develop the CAT model as a way of working with a group of disorders that have within them ‘overvalued ideas’ – almost delusional, fixed and demanding ideas concerning weight, body image or obsessional fears. These ideas seem paramount to the client and in some ways are ‘off the map’ and not open to dialogue. Where does this leave the therapist? What is the driving force behind the persistence of these ideas? Why is it that ‘more is more’?
Suitable for those with some CAT experience
