On the Clinic of Psychosis — Guy Dana  

Saturday, November 2, 2024
10:00 AM – 12:30 PM (ET)

In addition to a long-time concern with framework and setting, an ensuing search for new institutional strategies in treating psychoses leads to a proposal of two orientations: one based on translation and the other on the concept of perspective. The invention of perspective in the realm of pictorial representation may serve as a desirable model for analytic work with psychosis.

Location: In-person in NYC and online via Zoom.

Fee: $40; For students with ID: $20.

Guy Dana is a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who practices in Paris. Formed by Lacan, he has been head of a psychiatric hospital unit, served as president of the Cercle Freudian, and cofounded the international association Convergencia.
