Developing a Psychoanalytic Attitude

Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Gender and Sexuality:
​Elaborations and Revisions

​8-Week Group

What's this group about?

This 8-week study group for clinicians focuses on gender and sexuality as two of the many threads woven into the tapestry of the human subjective experience and its relational dimensions.

We explore the complexities of gender and sexuality, and their evolving conceptions, through (1) Psychoanalysis, from the classical position to the elaborations and revisions of feminist, relational, and queer practitioners, and (2) Contemporary discourses in the areas of gender, sexuality, and cross-cultural studies. In addition, the seminar will explicitly address how power is implicated in the theorizing about gender and sexuality. 
​
Participants will read and discuss contemporary psychoanalytic papers (45 minutes) and explore clinical material through the lens of psychoanalysis (45 minutes).

This is a great opportunity for networking, and expanding technique and theoretical frames. The group will meet either remotely or in-person depending on availability. The group is limited to 6 participants. The cost per session is $60.
