The Maudsley Lectures in Psychoanalysis are a series of lectures and seminars run by the Institute of Psychoanalysis in partnership with the Maudsley.
This new series covers both core psychoanalytic concepts and their applications. The programme is orientated to be of particular interest to clinicians: psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists and others in mental health and allied professions. However it is open to all and no particular experience or qualification is required.
This year we are also offering the possibility of purchasing a ticket for the lecture without the group discussion. Individual lecture tickets are priced at £20 each and can be booked here. Multiple lecture tickets can also be booked.

Each week each participant attends a lecture (with reading material provided) and then joins a smaller group for a group discussion on the evening’s topic, facilitated by a psychoanalyst.
It's an opportunity for learning and discussion in the company of others interested in psychoanalytic ideas. Lectures will include core concepts in psychoanalysis, their application to clinical work and to broader understandings of art, society and politics.
