Working Group
on the Study and Development of Psychoanalysis
OUTSTANDING CONTEMPORARY PSYCHOANALYSTS
We see our task in spreading psychoanalytic knowledge among specialists working in the field of mental health, in attracting their attention to the proven, existing since the 19th century, developing and effective method of providing psychological help to people - psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis has had a tremendous impact on culture and human knowledge of the self and its discoveries have been of great interest for over 100 years and continue to generate much interest and ongoing discussion in various fields of human studies.
We invite internationally renowned psychoanalysts, representatives of various psychoanalytic fields, united in the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA), who are ready to share their many years of experience and theoretical knowledge. Their seminars and supervisions provide an insight into their personal style of work, allowing participants and supervisees presenting clinical cases to gain invaluable experience that influences the formation of analytic thinking, allowing them to deepen their understanding of the therapeutic situation, and to learn new perspectives and possibilities.
In addition, IPA analysts organise clinical seminars and supervisions, which you can receive regular newsletters about if you register on this website.
