Education
Scientific Programs & Workshops

LAISPS’s Program Committee offers three tiers of educational experiences to the community covering contemporary psychoanalysis and its application to culture, available both online and in-person.

  • Scientific Workshops

    Scientific Workshops bring in the leading contemporary thinkers in psychoanalysis for in-depth discussions of their work.  These events are available both on-line and in-person.  

  • Psychoanalytic Seminars

    The Psychoanalytic Seminars Series offers small, more informal, typically in-person events in which 10-30 people are led in a focused conversation on important clinical topics by a LAISPS candidate, member, or training and supervising analyst.

  • Inside Psychoanalysis Series

    Inside Psychoanalysis, our newest series, offers psychoanalytic thinking applied to contemporary culture, as we use psychoanalytic tools and concepts to understand movies, books, and contemporary art and theatre.
