The Talking Cure
Our patients suffer mainly from feelings. It turns out that feelings provide the most reliable guide as to how we can help.
"Prof Solms introduced clarity to psychoanalysis in a way that no one has for me before. His input has deepened my understanding of psychoanalysis and greatly added to my capacity to help my patients."
Hi, I’m Mark Solms,
There are few pleasures greater than teaching psychoanalysis in ways that are both easy to grasp and filled with depth. These lectures not only introduce psychoanalysis, but they are also imbued with what I have learned through my scientific career and offer a glimpse into my own practice.
Bringing psychoanalysis to life and life to psychoanalysis is both my passion and life's work. I love teaching a discipline that is so interesting and such a pleasure and privilege to practice.
