Fall 2025 Events 

Getting Started with Klein and Bion: A Clinical Introduction

Presented by Dr. Timothy L. Hulsey 

Saturday, September 6, 2025 from 4:00 - 6:00 pm 

Will be held on Zoom. 

CEs: 2 

Target Audience: Licensed mental health professionals and graduate students
Instruction Level: Introductory 

Working psychoanalytically means listening beneath content for unconscious communication

and internal object dynamics. But for many beginning clinicians the process of doing this can
feel overwhelming. Worse, the theories that guide this kind of listening can seem mysterious
and opaque. This talk offers an accessible introduction to the core concepts of Kleinian and
Bionian thinking, with an emphasis on their clinical relevance. Together, we’ll explore how
early object relations shape psychic life, what splitting and projective identification look like
in interactions with patients, and how Bion’s ideas on containment and interpretation can
deepen therapeutic work. This introduction will not be a theoretical survey but rather an
invitation into a way of being with patients that can hold complexity, explore unconscious processes, and facilitate change.
