Centre For Freudian Analysis And Research Description
The Centre for Freudian Analysis and Research was founded in 1985 with the aim of promoting and developing psychoanalysis in the United Kingdom from within a Freudian and Lacanian perspective.
The work of the Centre involves the study of psychoanalysis through teaching, seminars and study groups and it trains psychoanalysts within the context of its clinical training programme.
The Centre has a public seminar programme where central issues in psychoanalysis and allied fields are discussed. It welcomes people not registered on its Training Programme to attend these meetings.
Throughout the year CFAR regularly organises seminars given by eminent psychoanalysts from France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Australia and elsewhere which comprise both theoretical and clinical presentations.
The Centre publishes a Journal, JCFAR, as well as a web journal and regular information bulletin which is circulated to all those registered with the Centre. The Journal contains articles on psychoanalytic themes from a Freudian and Lacanian perspective and is an important source of psychoanalytic articles translated from French, Spanish and Italian.

DIAGNOSIS
Lacanian psychoanalysis puts special emphasis on the question of diagnosis. This does not mean pigeonholing the patient, but elaborating a framework which will help with the listening process and attending to the particularity of each individual subject. Ignoring diagnostic issues often leads to acting out or passages to the act. This course will examine the Lacanian theory of diagnosis as it is used in clinical practice.
You can book in advance or pay at the door.

Autumn Term Short Course at CFAR
Transference and Interpretation // Christos Tombras
Saturday 9 November from 1:45pm - 4th and final seminar of the short course.
... Every therapeutic relation involves transference, but how has this concept evolved during the history of psychoanalysis? And how have the changes in the theory of transference had an effect on theories of interpretation? Most clinicians who work psychoanalytically agree that the transference needs to be interpreted, but at what moment? And what of the Lacanian critique of transference interpretation? This course will examine these questions from a Lacanian perspective, combining theoretical exposition with clinical examples.
You can pay at the door or book in advance.
