Working with Images in Psyche through the Lens of a Queer Analytic Attitude
In this experiential day of reflection and group process we will work towards a synthesis of material from Queer Theory and Analytic Psychology and will apply this synthesis to clinical material, working with fairy tale material from a Queer Energy perspective. In these tales we will encounter images of Jouissance, Exile, the Death Drive, the costs of Kinship Libido, and the phenomenological necessity of finding an embodied Home.
