Even if unacknowledged, sound is as omnipresent in treatment as air. In this clinical workshop we will discuss how sound, whether organized or unorganized, informs co-creation of the relationship, embodied interactions, symbolic play in ,child therapy, enactments, and experience of physical manifestations in the countertransference in response to our patients’ unrepresented mental contents. Freud used the word “instrument” in connection with the analyst’s use of the unconscious in treatments. We will ponder how unconscious affective elements accompanied by sound, can be re-conceptualized or repressed, by not having been validated or articulated because of inattention or negative response. Topics will include the physiological experience of sound, intimate and group experience, and music in empathy, mourning, and loss.
