Description

Our Adult World and it’s Roots in Infancy

In-person & Online Summer Study Day

Join us for a day of presentations and discussion which we hope will stimulate a lively, interactive exploration of how unresolved issues and trauma experienced in childhood can continue to impact functioning in adulthood.

Clinical material from an adult patient will be presented from which we will extrapolate the underlying anxieties and conflicts that stem from earlier developmental stages of life namely infancy, latency and adolescence. You will hear from several Child and Adolescent psychotherapists/psychoanalysts who also trained as Psychoanalysts to work with adults.

An attendance certificate can be provided.
