Discussions On Psychoanalysis

On this installment of Discussions on Psychoanalysis, your hosts, Grégoire Pierre and Edgard Francisco Danielsen, answer some questions from the audience, e.g. fantasy and note-taking, and delve deeper into the shifting demands and explorations regarding on how to do psychoanalysis in times of pandemic. The psychoanalytic frame has changed, in what ways does it impact the work with our patients? Both analyst and patient are immersed in the same external global reality, i.e. pandemic, what does this mean for the work of interpreting in the transference? In what ways the physical body is part of the analysis, e.g. lying down on the couch or facing a camera; phone or videoconference? What about the analyst's own mortality? Join your hosts as they ponder and unpack their thoughts around these and other questions from the audience.
