A unique opportunity for everyone who connects their professional life with psychoanalysis to come together, share experiences, and establish new professional and personal connections.
about the conference
In the age of modern reality, the psychoanalytic community faces new challenges. The online space, once perceived as foreign, has become a dialogue platform that transcends geographical boundaries. The ability for psychotherapists to work online, distance learning, and supervision with specialists worldwide is shaping a new landscape for practice. However, in this digital dimension, the value of live contact, physical presence, and the incommunicable atmosphere of “here-and-now” and “face-to-face” is felt particularly acutely.
The conference "Languages of Psychoanalysis: A New Reality" aims to explore how speech, symbolic exchange, and the very fabric of therapeutic relationships are changing in our transforming environment.

| WHY ISTANBUL? The conference "Languages of Psychoanalysis: A New Reality" is the second international conference held in Istanbul. We have chosen Istanbul as the location for the conference because it is an important international center. The city, connecting East and West, is perfect for bringing together specialists from different countries. Convenient air travel and the unique Turkish hospitality make Istanbul an accessible and attractive place for our conference participants to meet. About previous conference (2024) |
