WEEKEND WORKSHOP WITH MARK SOLMS

A Practical Introduction to Neuropsychoanalysis: Clinical Implications

Day 1: Saturday, December 9, 2017

How do emerging models of the brain and mind inform clinical practice?  Join Mark Solms for an overview of key topics in neuropsychoanalysis that enrich our theory and technique. A series of in-depth lectures will be presented, followed by detailed discussions of clinical material.
