Without Borders: IPCAPA/bpf seminars
Book ticketsOrganised by:
British Psychotherapy Foundation (bpf)/IPCAPA
Description
Without Borders’ is a monthly series of IPCAPA/bpf seminars, exploring international psychoanalytic texts to understand how theory and clinical practice has developed in other parts of the world. Papers discussing clinical, technical and theoretical psychoanalytic issues from all around the world will be explored. It will be an attempt to open up and maintain discussions in relation to clinical practice, informed by culturally diverse and clinically relevant issues that have developed in other parts of the world.
British psychoanalytic theory and practice is rooted in specific ways of thinking. Though psychoanalytic thinking has expanded and developed in other parts in Europe, Asia, Latin America, Africa, US and Canada. The main aim of the seminars is to think and explore psychoanalytic ideas from other parts of the current culturally pluralistic world.
Drawing upon other’s psychotherapists work from all over the world and explore different techniques and ideas, could help us to develop our clinical practice further. In each seminar there will be a summary from a paper/s, which will be circulated 2 weeks in advance of the seminar, presented at the beginning, followed by an open discussion. Then clinically relevant material will be presented and discussed in relation to the main paper, exploring the main ideas and their relevance to our current clinical practice.
The seminars will be recorded and be available for a short period of time after each seminar.
