    2 CE CREDITS FOR LICENSED PSYCHOANALYSTS, SOCIAL WORKERS, AND PSYCHOLOGISTS

    This talk will address the ways in which the Holocaust experiences of leading psychoanalysts—as refugees, survivors, and children of survivors—shaped and influenced their seminal ideas and praxis, and continues to do so. Kuriloff’s research includes original source material from the period, personal correspondence, and, most powerfully, interviews conducted with analysts who lived through and/or have studied the period.

    Emily Kuriloff, PsyD, is Director of Clinical Education, a training and supervising psychoanalyst, and instructor at the William Alanson White Institute in New York. She is the former book review editor and is on the editorial board of the journal Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Her interests include the intersection between culture and politics and psychoanalytic theory and practice, and the relationship between action and reflection, body and mind. Her book, Contemporary Psychoanalysis and the Legacy of the Third Reich (2014), explores how the trauma of the European Shoah transformed the development of psychoanalysis at its apex and beyond. A volume of essays written by psychoanalysts returning home after exile or emigration is forthcoming.
