The Stuff of New Selves: Insights and Tensions Treating Psychosis in a Therapeutic Community
This is one of three presentations given at the Residential and Community Treatment of Psychosis conference, organized by Ellenhorn, Gould Farm, and the Erikson Institute at Austen Riggs Center.
Brett Thatcher LICSW, MTS (he/him) is a clinical social worker and psychotherapist at Gould Farm in the Berkshires and in private practice. He has completed post-graduate training in intersubjective psychotherapy and mentalization-based treatment. He has presented professionally on issues of gender and sexuality, trauma, and intersubjectivity.
In this presentation, using Gould Farm’s treatment program as a case study, Brett illustrates principles and practices supporting an approach to psychosis that takes seriously the complexity and humanity of individuals with psychotic experiences. Such a stance requires a great deal of respect for symptoms as both meaning-making and self-making efforts. Thinking with Saketopoulou’s (2022, 2023) recent interventions in traumatophilia, the second half of the presentation will highlight tensions that arise in current approaches to psychosis in mental health systems and offer starting points for reimagining our practices. The critical analysis will consider the notion of recovery and our collective fantasies of cure, the equating of neoliberal coherence with health, and what psychotic experiences might (re)teach us about our world.

Wow, what a change - really impressive - nice music too 'I've never been in Love before' Guys & Dolls.
Well done, Gould Farm Administration, Board of Directors, Donors, Staff, Volunteers and Guests. You all are making a difference in the world. We wish you the very best in all you to do in the present and the future! Take good care.
Long may you flourish!
I'm really happy for you guys. I'm also really happy for the fact that Gould now has an improved gym and is emphasizing physical health as well. The work program is good for physical health and McKee's gym was a good introduction to weight lifting and physical health for me when I was there. The fact that you all have a state of the art gym now really warms my heart for how it will help guests now and in the future. Gould Farm is really a transformative place that takes care of not just the mental health of its guests but the whole person.
What a wonderful new space!
So happy to hear from so many old friends like Ben, Stan, Lisanne, Phyllis and Sam's family. Wow, so gorgeous. So glad to be a part of all of this and will send the link around to give others the same inspiration I received. I definitely got teary eyed....
