In the hope of bringing this important matter to the forefront of our attention\, this conversation focuses on the embodiment of blackness and whiteness within therapeutic contexts.\n\nCOSTS\nProfessionals $50\nCandidates and Students $30\n\nTHE SPEAKERS\nUdesh Anda\, PsyD\, is a clinical psychologist\, a specialist in child and adolescent psychology\, and a clinical society psychologist.

In her upcoming co-edited collection: Creative Disruption: Psychosocial scholarship as praxis (2025)\, contributors explore power\, knowledge\, memory\, embodiment and the of potential of multidisciplinary approaches in fostering epistemic disruption.

Doris Brothers and Jon Sletvold have founded the Center. With it\, they are introducing an online forum for dialogues about the ways in which embodiment affects the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy.\nA wide range of approaches to embodiment have emerged in the last two decades that have led them to believe that a “turn toward embodiment” is underway. In the interest of furthering this turn they are offering a format that differs from the usual at psychoanalytic meetings. Rather than featuring a paper presenting a specific theorist or clinician followed by discussions\, they intend that each event will center around a specific topic. Speakers from around the world\, each of whom employs a different perspective on embodiment\, will be invited to participate in a roundtable conversation of the topic. Afterward\, online participants will be encouraged to join the conversation.\nLearn more about The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment
