Retreat for NYPSI Members and Students

“Practicing Psychoanalysis Today and Tomorrow”

Sunday, February 2, 2020

9:30 am – 12:30 pm

The goal is community building, encouraging collaborative approaches to shaping and strengthening our institute and involving all interested members. We will begin with a large group introduction, then divide into small groups of 12-16 people for 50 minutes, and then join together again as a large group to share and respond to reports from each of the small groups.

The purpose of the small groups, whose members will be randomly assigned, is to discuss across a variety of viewpoints, topics that people have opinions about, wish to change, or want to explore.

The random assignment will hopefully ensure that people with different opinions will be in each group; the small group is to encourage a more detailed engagement with each other’s opinions than is possible in a large meeting.
