👉29th of March 2026
Beyond the Psychoanalytic Therapy Couch: The Transformative Power of Group Psychotherapy 💡
The Study Day is a half-day seminar organised by the European Federation of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (EFPP). Its principal aim is to promote a clinical and theoretical dialogue between the four Psychoanalytic Sections under the Federation's umbrella: Adult, Child & Adolescent, Couple & Family, and Group.
This EFPP Group Study Day will be based on the clinical work of 📌Uri Levin, clinical psychologist, group analyst, and organisational consultant. He previously served for ten years on the board of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (EFPP) and was the chair of its Groups section.
The Study Day features 📌Uri Levin, M.A., as Main Speaker, with 📌Eugenijus Laurinaitis, MD, PhD and 📌Tove Mathiesen (IGA-Aarhus), Psychoanalyst (IPA), MD as Discussants moderated by 📌Anna Zajenkowska, outgoing Section Chair. The lecture integrates clinical case material and psychodynamic theory, followed by a large-group discussion.
This Online event is👉 open to all EFPP delegates and colleagues from all sections.
