SHORT COURSES AT CFAR
CFAR offers a series of short courses on themes in Lacanian psychoanalysis. No prior knowledge of Lacan is assumed and the seminars will all include clinical examples involving the kind of problems and questions that are common to diverse currents in contemporary psychotherapy.
Spring 2025: ACTING OUT
What makes a patient act out? Is it always to correct the therapist’s mistakes? We are all familiar with the clinical phenomenon of acting out, but how can it best be addressed within the context of analytic work, and how does it differ from passages to the act? This short course will examine the theory of acting out and passages to the act in Freud, post Freudian theorists and Lacan, offering theoretical and clinical perspectives and practical indications for analytic work.
