Case Conference Seminar w/ Nadine Tang, MSW

Course description

This class will provide an opportunity for each of the participants to present a client case. Each person seeking therapy presents a unique set of issues. It is what they tell us that provides pieces of a puzzle which both client and therapist work to put together.


My intention is to create a space where we can think together about a client and share ideas about what might trouble the person and how this is reflected in the transference and countertransference. We will also examine how understanding this can provide ways to further the relationship and the therapy.


The first meeting will be spent in introductions followed by case presentations and discussions.

To Register

Instructor

  

Nadine Tang (she/her) is a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in Berkeley. She worked for over 20 years in college mental health at both UC Berkeley and at Mills College. 


She has taught at both Ann Martin Children's Center and at Access Institute. She is currently on the adjunct faculty as an associate professor at UC Berkeley, Psychology department, and at Tsinghua University in Beijing. 


She is consulting for a number of therapists in practice as well as seeing psychotherapy clients.


Nadine's interest has been in understanding cultural differences, and how these impact the therapeutic relationship. Working with patients who are different from oneself present both opportunities and challenges. She has published a number of papers on this subject. Some of her papers include Different Differences: Revelation and Disclosure of Social Identity in the Psychoanalytic Situation; Race, Culture, and Psychotherapy: Transference to Minority Therapists; and The Eternal Triangle across Cultures: Oedipus, Hsueh, and Ganesa. 

Expectations of Participants

Barring extenuating circumstances, participants in TAACP’s courses agree to attend all sessions, arriving on time for the entire duration of class. 


As classes are online, ensure that you are in a quiet and private space that allows for both audio and video to be on. 


Classes are small to encourage dialogue. We encourage you to “take” your share of talking time and listening time. 

Keep other participants’ experience and clinical information confidential. 

All involved with TAACP (staff, volunteers, faculty, participants, guests) are expected to interact with each other with respect.


Issues that arise will be first discussed / addressed with the immediate folks involved and can be progressed to include faculty and/or TAACP’s administration.   

Frequently Asked Questions

Unfortunately, not at this time. If you can or know of someone who can help us get approved nationwide, please email hello@taacp.org.

Course fees are split between instructors and the Center. We believe in valuing the time and work of our instructors.  The fees to Center support operating costs for current and future programming.  At this time, our non-teaching staff are volunteers. 

Due to the size of the courses (8 participants), your presence is important so we hope that you make every effort to attend class. And, life happens. 


However, there will be no recordings of sessions. We want to encourage participants to feel at ease to share personal and/or clinical material. 

We want to offer a space for Asian / Asian American clinicians to be, to learn, to question, to create, and to support one another.  And, from this space, our hope is that we can have more nuanced conversations and in depth explorations of the intersection of Asian subjectivities and psychoanalysis.


Our one time events are open to all.  And, in the future, we might offer courses for non-Asian clinicians. 

If you need to withdraw from enrollment, full refund will be given to up to 2 weeks prior to class start minus a processing fee of $25.  If withdrawn with less than 2 weeks of start of class, you will be charged a $50 processing fee. 


No refunds once classes begin or for missed classes. Extenuating circumstances will be considered.


In the event that the Center has to cancel a course, full refund will be provided.
