Conversation with Rune L. Mølbak.

Using LacanianPsychoanalysis in (Non-Analytic) Clinical Practice:

Theoretical Principles and Case Based Illustrations

Abstract

The theoretical ideas of French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan are frequently not well understood by the psychotherapeutic establishment in the United States. This essay seeks to introduce Jacques Lacan’s ideas about clinical practice to therapists and counselors who are not analysts but would like to integrate psychoanalytic ideas into their work with clients. Using definitions of key terms and case based illustrations from my own work with clients I seek to demonstrate the utility of Lacanian ideas for bringing about therapeutic change. Lacan’s idea that symptoms are metaphoric substitutions that have fallen out of the client’s unconscious signifying chains is explained and clinical illustrations are provided of how clinicians can effect change in a client’s symptoms by intervening at the level of language rather than at the level of conscious meaning.

Rune L. Mølbak has a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA. He is currently a practicing psychologist in Houston, TX and works at Counseling and Psychological Services at the University of Houston. He has published many articles on humanistic, phenomenological, and alternative philosophical approaches to clinical practice.

La Traviata 
Love, sacrifice and redemption: La Traviata’s dazzling heroine embodies all three in one of opera’s most beloved stories.

The story of Violetta Valéry—a Parisian courtesan who makes the fatal mistake of falling in love—has defined romantic tragedy since La dame aux Camélias, the Dumás novel that inspired Verdi, appeared in 1848.

Verdi’s opera paints a picture of a glittering Second Empire Paris, the serenity of Violetta’s country estate and the heroine’s fate on a cold, pre-Lenten morning.
