Don't miss out on Stefano Bolognini's lectures in September and October.

What happens when dreams are approached not simply as material to interpret, but as experiences that can transform the analytic process?

Stefano Bolognini invites us to rethink two central themes of psychoanalysis through the lens of contemporary clinical practice.

In the first lecture, The Dream as an Experience, he explores the dream as a living emotional experience within the analytic relationship, opening new perspectives on its therapeutic potential.

The second lecture, Hidden Unconscious, Buried Unconscious, Implicit Unconscious, expands our understanding of unconscious mental life beyond repression alone, introducing different layers of unconscious functioning that have important implications for psychoanalytic technique.

Drawing on decades of clinical experience, Bolognini combines theoretical depth with rich clinical material, offering fresh ways of thinking about the analytic encounter.

📅 Thursday 17 September & Thursday 15 October
🕗 8.00 pm Sydney time
💻 Online via Zoom
