MLE Friends Talk with Leslie de Galbert
“Caring for Life through Language and Emotion: Psychoanalysis as Translation”
Can psycho-dynamic depth psychology be a missing link in our dialogues that explore the nature and the lived experience of consciousness? What can an exploration of psychoanalysis bring to our understanding of the concepts of cognition and enaction? Where does an unconscious mind fit into the picture? Addressing these and other reflections on her work, Leslie will seek to broaden our understanding of the dynamic processes of the psyche. She will unfold how, from concepts and theories that were conceived over a century ago and have since become a robust methodology, the practice of psychoanalysis engenders transformations of our lived life that might also be seen as translations.
