Seminars
Our seminars provide a reflective space for clinicians, trainees, and interdisciplinary thinkers to explore psychotherapy beyond technique. Rooted in relational, depth-oriented, and culturally attuned approaches, these sessions examine how clinical practice intersects with literature, the arts, and philosophy of mind.
Drawing on psychoanalytic and relational traditions, seminars invite dialogue on themes such as the role of narrative and metaphor in therapy, philosophical insights into consciousness and selfhood, and the expressive power of art and literature in emotional life.
Facilitated by our expert staff and guest contributors, seminars combine theory, case discussions, and experiential work to deepen understanding and enrich clinical practice.
Open to practitioners at all stages and anyone interested in the inner life, these seminars foster thoughtful engagement with the complexities of therapeutic work today.
