Presenters: Daniel Polyak, MA & Diana Gil Velez, MS, LCAT

Moderator: Beverly Schneider, MSW, LCSW


Panelists will consider how the sociopolitical impacts psychoanalysis as an institution, a clinical practice, and a body of knowledge. Some of the issues that will be discussed include: psychoanalysis’s disavowed class problem; the ways in which the intersectional issues of class, race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and nationality construct and limit psychoanalytic training; and how analysts can develop creative ways to make psychoanalysis accessible to diverse populations.


Learning Objectives: After attending the presentation, participants will be able to

  1. To learn about the evolution of Freud’s thinking on the accessibility of psychoanalysis (from pre-WWI to post WWI)
  2. To explore whom psychoanalysis is currently for in 2020
  3. To explore ways in which psychoanalysis can rise up to meet the challenges of the next 10+ years.
