The
European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy:
the past, the present and the future |
| |

The European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy was founded
in 1991 in London.
Brian Martindale, a British psychoanalyst was elected as the first
President and he formed, together with colleagues from the UK and
other countries from Europe the first Executive Committee. This
Board had as most important task to write the first version of the
constitution, something that demanded a lot of inspiration and transpiration.
The overall aim of the EFPP has, from the start, been to contribute
significantly to the wellbeing of mental health among people living
in Europe and to facilitate communication between psychoanalytic
psychotherapists in different parts of Europe. The EFPP is concerned
with extending the availability of psychoanalytic psychotherapy
and its applications in member countries, by promoting a European
community network.

Bridging Identities. Clinical
Impact of Groups.
EFPP Group Section Conference, May 28-31,
2009, Prague, Czech Republic
This Conference will be of interest to those who wish to take a
fresh look at group work inspired by psychoanalytic and group-analytic
understanding of group processes. As one of the foremost Central
Europe capitals, Prague provides a unique experience for integrating
group experiences from both former East and West Europe, from groups
run within health care systems as well as in private practice. The
clinical impact of social and cultural events on groups and vice
versa will also be explored. The Conference will be linked with
art exhibitions, multi-media presentations and other cultural events
reflecting the mutual impact of psychological and cultural processes.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Prague!

Letter
from the Executive Committee |
by
Eva Wold
Hon. Secretary of the EFPP |
|
|
The meetings in the Executive Committee take place
regularly twice a year and generally in connection with EFPP conferences.
This meeting was an arrangement by itself as there was no EFPP conference
at this time. It was arranged in Dublin in order to meet Irish colleagues.
In connection with this meeting, professor Paul Williams, who is
also the editor of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis (IJP),
gave a public lecture which was attended by 30 colleagues and other
interested parties. Paul William’s inspirational clinical
paper initiated an interesting and lively discussion.

Observation
|
|
workshop
December, 9th to10 th 2005
at Athens
|
 |
| |
During the recent EFPP conferences, presentations and discussions
on infant observation became an ongoing theme and led to the formation
of a small group with the intention to take the issue further. An
organising committee by Britta Blomberg (Sweden), Effie Layiou-Lignos
(Greece), Anne Holländer (Denmark), Miriam Rosenthal (Israel)
- delegates of the Child and Adolescent section of EFPP- was formed
to set up the First EFPP Infant Observation Workshop. It was advertised
on the EFPP-website and also through direct e-mail to all delegates
within the EFPP, who were asked to spread information about the
event in their countries and sections.
The Workshop took place in Athens, 9-10 December 2005. Effie Layiou-Lignos
from the Hellenic Association for Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic
Psychotherapy, was the local organiser.

from IJP

Dear
Colleague
The Editors-in-Chief are pleased to announce a new web-based editorial
management system for the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.
As of March 31st 2005, authors will be able to submit their papers
online to IJP directly from the journal's website (www.ijpa.org).
Online submission will run alongside the present system of submission
by email or by hard copy in the mail, although the preferred method
is online.
The new system offers a number of benefits to authors, reviewers
and editorial staff. Overall it will make the editorial process,
from submission of paper to final editorial decision, quicker and
more efficient. Further details can be found on the attached
document (please feel free to copy and distribute this to your
colleagues).
I hope you will use online submission for your next paper to IJP
and that you will encourage your colleagues to do the same.
Kind regards
Alison Gridley Editorial Administrator IJP, Byron House, 112a Shirland
Road, London, W9 2EQ, UK
