Saturday Double Feature: An Intro to Psychoanalysis + Why Divest from Legacy Psychoanalytic Institutions
Online, beginning at 10AM NYC
THIS SATURDAY, June 13th, my Introduction to Psychoanalysis course continues at RU Center for Psychoanalysis. In the previous class, we wrapped up Freud’s major works from the end of his life, including “Group Psychology and Analysis of the Ego” and “Civilisation and its Discontents.” In this next class, we’ll be focusing on the work of revolutionary psychoanalysts, Otto Gross, Wilhelm Reich, Otto Fenichel, and Erich Fromm, and also take a look at Anna Freud, Melanie Klein, and the Controversial Discussions, as well as D.W. Winnicott from the Middle or Independent Group.
You may join in this class anytime! The recordings of all previous classes in this course are archived under CLASSES, where you may watch them at your own pace. All paid subscribers at RU Center for Psychoanalysis Substack are automatically enrolled in this course! Check out the schedule of upcoming events HERE.
PLEASE NOTE: Class begins 2 hours earlier than usual!
We will meet online at 10AM NYC (7AM Vancouver/ 3PM London/ 16:00 Stockholm/ 17:00 Beirut/ midnight Sydney) for 2 hours. Class will be recorded and archived at RU Center Substack.
The reason being, I am encouraging everyone to attend Carter J. Carter, Ph.D LICSW talk “Why Divest from Legacy Psychoanalytic Institutions,” which begins directly after, at 12 NYC the same day, Saturday, June 13th.
You may read all about it here: APsA-lutely Not! Why you should really come to P-HOLE’s first Counter-Talk on June 13th. It’s free and you may register HERE. Please note: P-HOLE’s events are not recorded!
I am very excited to see Carter present their research, as conversations had with Carter on Rendering Unconscious Podcast helped inspire the formation of RU Center for Psychoanalysis and my teaching this Intro to Psychoanalysis course in particular.
You may see us talking about abolishing psychoanalytic institutes here:
