CMPS Conference: Psychoanalysis in the XXI Century: A Clinical Conference
Click Here: for Info on this CMPS Conference
To introduce us to the twenty-first century, the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies has invited five outstanding psychoanalysts who have been closely associated with Hyman Spotnitz and who have participated significantly in the development and evolution of modern psychoanalysis: Arnold Bernstein, Evelyn Liegner,Robert Marshall, Leslie Rosenthal and Murray Sherman. These innovative thinkers have each made many contributions to the field over their long careers, as reflected in their work as educators, training and supervising analysts, in their many published writings, and as lecturers and speakers at conferences and workshops. For this conference they are coming together to exchange thoughts and feelings about their work, their experiences, their philosophy, and their ideas about psychoanalysis in the new century. They will invite us to join in dialogue with them.

Arlene Kramer Richards’s Letter to the New York Times
The excellent article by Maggie Jones on “Looking for Their Children’s Birth Mothers” happily coincided with a conference on international adoption this weekend. Both your article and our conference came to the conclusion that cross-racial succeeds best when parents respond to their children’s questions rather than force answers on them. One presenter at our conference told of her own gratitude that she had been included in her adoptive parents’ culture rather than being forced into a necessarily superficial and artificial submersion in the culture of her homeland. Parents, researchers, and therapists agreed that once a person develops an identity as member of the family in which she is raised she can become interested in the culture of her homeland and her birth family. The most important thing the adoptive family can do is to include the their child in what authentically matters to their family, and allow her to be the leader in restoring what interests her as she grows up. Readers interested in the papers given at the conference can find them on http://www.InternationalPsychoanalysis.net

Sigmund Freud set the cornerstone of modern psychology when he demonstrated that the unconscious mind is active in organizing conscious experience. He described how forbidden desires are repressed into the unconscious and then relum to consciousness in symbolic form. By the 1930s the Surrealist artists in this exhibition were inspired to depict their dreams and fantasies.
