Longing for Breakdown in the Analytic Couple:
Repetition, Reparation, Mourning, Generation

Schaupp proposes a formulation of fear of breakdown that encompasses both a breaking down of archaic, false inner organizations and a drive for growth and self-creation. In this formulation, the transition from the breaking down of archaic inner structures to the breaking through, accompanying growth and self-creation is achieved via (re)experiencing of breakdown within the analytic couple. In this context, Schaupp elaborates upon the notion of (re)experiencing as not just a transferential (re)experiencing of breakdown, but also as a more primordial dwelling together in the broken place of breakdown—a process which inevitably entails the longings and unmetabolized losses of both patient and analyst.
Learning Objectives
As a result of having attended this presentation, the learner will:
- Conceptualize and expand upon Winnicott’s formulation of the Fear of Breakdown as encompassing both a breaking down of archaic, false inner organizations and a propensity for growth and self-creation.
- Understand the meanings of the fear of breakdown, including its repetitive, reparative, and generative aspects, through various theoretical lenses, including Winnicott, Milner, Ghent, and Bion.
- Understand, from a Field Theory perspective, the mutual influence between container/contained and the transformations occurring in the minds of both analyst and patient when working in the realm of breakdown, and the role these processes play in the mutative therapeutic action of relational psychoanalysis.
