Are there books or stories that capture, articulate or speak to the sensibilities we have developed as analysts? Writings that shape our understanding of reality; the frameworks we use to comprehend the world around us; the very nature of the way we formulate our questions, our thinking, how we conceive our ontology; the aspects of our thinking analytically that were there before we began a formation, before we even considered the possibility of becoming an analyst?

Come speak and think through the connections between the theory that works for you and how it emerged from those early texts. The stage that was set and rooted by those tales that you still remember from childhood. Particularly those of us that have entered psychoanalysis from a Latin American background- there is something “picardia” the way in which foundational characters of our youth are informed by a sensibility that now looking back we can plainly connect our practices within psychoanalysis.

Dig into your past- Bring tales and texts that can bring you back to that which came before and can extend into the future to continue analysis beyond analysis
