DAYLONG EVENT WITH DR. USHA TUMMALA-NARRA: SOCIAL, CULTURAL, AND POLITICAL STRESS IN PSYCHOANALYTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY

NCSPP is excited to host the esteemed clinical psychologist Dr. Usha Tummala-Narra in a day-long course on Saturday, September 19th. Dr. Tummala-Narra is well known for her scholarship on race, immigration, and multiculturalism within the field of psychoanalysis. In this workshop, she will discuss how culturally-informed psychoanalytic psychotherapy can engage social, cultural, and political stress and trauma. Specifically, she will focus on interactions between personality, social context, and relational stress as they show up in transference and countertransference dynamics, and how these dynamics carry new meanings in the current sociopolitical environment. 

This is an in-person only event, from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm at St. Clement’s Church in Berkeley.
