Bodies in Interaction: Finding Patients with Eating Disorders in Spaces Neither Here nor There

Save the Date: September 27

Bodies can be a place where co-construction of relational meanings between patient and analyst occurs. Sometimes patients with eating disorders may need to use our bodies as liminal space—a space between inside and outside, between self and other, between language and silence, between the uncanny and the ordinary and between body to body.


Presenter: Jean Petrucelli, PhD, CEDS-S

Losing, Hiding, and Seeking: What is to be found?

Bodies can be a place where co-construction of relational meanings between patient and analyst occurs.

Prelude to Training
Barriers to Closeness: Is Race an Obstacle? Or a Bridge?

Dr. Shirke conceptualizes racism and prejudice as the consequence of intergenerational transference of experiences and attitudes about the identities of self and of others. Two analytic theories of mind can be applied to grasp this intellectually, prior to integrating emotionally this sensibility.

​The Importance of Film for Psychoanalysis

By Herb Stein MD

Psychoanalysis changes lives.

 

At a time when training in most mental health fields is focused on time limited biological and behavioral interventions, we believe in the importance of training clinicians to do in-depth work with patients, providing effective and durable results.   

 

We believe in making affordable treatment available to the New York City community through our consultation and treatment service.

 

We are dedicated to providing the highest quality in psychoanalytic treatment and education.
