Description
The BPA Summer Study Day | The Royal Road to the Unconscious: Dreams and Psychoanalysis
In-person & Online Summer Study Day
We consider the role of dreams in contemporary analysis, how work with dreams has evolved since Freud’s seminal publication of the ‘Interpretation of Dreams’ in 1900 and examine this through Winnicottian and Bionian and lenses.
Dream material will be presented and explored in small groups followed by an interactive discussion with a panel of BPA analysts and the audience.
