Exploring Transgender Identities: Clinical And Ethical Considerations From A Psychoanalytic Framework with Alessandra Lemma, PhD
In this seminar, Dr. Lemma will critically review how psychoanalysis has approached the question of transgender identities and the challenges that have been proposed to the classical psychoanalytic understanding. She will introduce some key ethical points that are important for therapists working in this area. Finally, she will share some of her own clinical work with this group of patients to illustrate some of the challenges and adaptations to technique.
A Seminar on Transference Through the Lens of Jean Laplanche
Transference is ubiquitous. These inarticulable transferential processes enliven and/or deaden an analytic process. Further, they occur in all of our transactions with people, our communal relations, our history, our things (technological processes) and our ideological saturations that affect our way of being in the world. Post-Lacanian thinker Jean Laplanche extends the traditional ideas of transference into the cultural domain and considers what happens with transferential phenomena after analysis has ended.

Spring Clinical Seminar with Judy Eekhoff, PhD, FIPA
This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
- Polonius speaking to his son, Laertes. Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 3, Lines 78-80

Reflecting on the human condition and the mysteries of the human soul has been my lifelong career. This was my role in my extended and nuclear family. My best friend's mother called me 'the little priest' when I was 7. I could easily have entered religious life.

Following Ariadne’s Thread with Bev Osband (Meeting Three)
Looking back over the serpentine path that carried me from degrees in biology and anatomy, through nursing and on to counseling psychology followed by a second doctorate in clinical and depth psychology and finally psychoanalytic training, I know that nothing we do across our life-span is without value. Clearly I didn’t set out to become a psychoanalyst, but the universe took me there nevertheless.
