Both didactic and experiential learning will be equally emphasized.

This seminar cultivates a Busch-informed clinical stance and technique, with close attention to reverie, countertransference as an instrument, timing of interpretation, symbolization, working through trauma and splitting, and fostering analytic creativity and ethical presence. Ideal for clinicians and training, psychoanalytic candidates, advanced psychotherapy trainees, early-career therapists, and clinical graduate students.

Friday, November 20, 2026 | 9:30-12 PM PST | Live via Zoom, The Contemporary Psychodynamic Institute presents: Reimagining the Core Competencies of Contemporary Psychoanalytic Therapy: From Freudian Foundations to Fanonian Fundamentals

In light of the Holmes Commission Report, contemporary psychoanalysis faces a divide between traditional clinical neutrality and emerging relational paradigms. In his presentation designed for practicing clinicians, Dr. Daniel José Gaztambide bridges that gap by connecting Freud’s original clinical notes with Frantz Fanon’s vision of therapy as a collective science. Through real-world case studies and practical principles, participants will learn how political and interpersonal dynamics naturally intersect within everyday treatment.

General admission price: $135. Student pricing available with .edu email.

CEU: 2.5 (pending approval), available as add-on to admission pricing.

What to Expect: This interactive, clinically-oriented presentation bridges historical inquiry and contemporary practice, moving beyond traditional debates to offer a integrated model of psychoanalytic work. Participants will engage with historical evidence, theoretical synthesis, and practical applications designed for immediate relevance in the consulting room.
All registrants will receive a copy of the recommended pre-reading via email, prior to the event:
