IPA Webinar: "Multicultural Aspects of Psychoanalysis"

Feedback is expected on how colleagues integrate local norms and values into their work. In addition, it would address the clinical implications of working with patients from diverse backgrounds, highlighting the importance of cultural sensitivity and competence in psychoanalytic therapy. The webinar would also discuss ethical issues related to psychoanalysis in a multicultural context, including the challenges and opportunities for practitioners in this dynamic and globalised field. Finally, it will promote a dialogue on best practices and strategies for effective and respectful psychoanalytic practice in an increasingly diverse society.
