Happy new year, good luck & welcome all emerging writers to the #TomGrassPrize #WritingCommmunity #writingprompts

This week's column is about the crux (or as I used to think it was called, the crotch!) of psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis: making the unconscious conscious. It's been life-changing for me and my patients. Thank you, Freud! theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

@cliffe_ali Congratulations!

Graduation this weekend. Officially a qualified, and ACP registered, Child & Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist. An extra surprise was winning the Eileen Curtis award for my qualifying paper 🙏🥳💜

We’re open! Announcing the inaugural Tom Grass Prize. In sad circumstances, so pleased to share this news & hope it brings good things. Thanks to & from all Tom’s friends & family. #TomGrassPrize #WritingCommmunity @nikkigrass @tom_grass_prize @JJERSKINE

Thanks to all who attended our conference: ‘Considerations on Continuity and Disruption’. We had lively discussions on our profession’s future, diversity, research & interdisciplinarity & celebrated 40 years of the British Journal of Psychotherapy. Here’s to another 40 years! 🎉

My new column is out. I've had a touching email from a reader who connected with it, which is the best part of this gig. Please do get in touch if it speaks to you, and if you feel inclined... theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/a…

‘If Only I Was a Boy’ received enough citations to be a #TopCitedArticle in its journal. Thanks to @wileyinresearch and the British Journal of Psychotherapy, who, before @Hilary_Cass report, dared to publish when other journals were reluctant.

#LovesLaboursLost @TheRSC is coming with these beautiful folks.

My paper was recognized as one of the top downloads last year! Despite the fact that this thinking is clearly in demand, I've had difficulties getting this work published in some PA journals. Thx @wileyinresearch Clinicians must be free to debate & think. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

There’s no ‘one size fits all’ model for understanding GD & while a psychoanalytic approach is not always appropriate, the model can provide insights into unconscious motives. Therapist need to see the individual behind the presenting issue. @genspect onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bj…

There are only a few places remaining for our upcoming Open Day on April 13th in London. Come along to learn about our BPC and ACP-accredited clinical and pre-clinical training programmes and what life as a trainee is like. Register here: britishpsychotherapyfoundation.org.uk/events/574/bpf…

When is giving up not failure, but a way of succeeding at something else? On the LRB Podcast, Adam Phillips explores the ways in which knowing our limitations can be an act of heroism. lrb.co.uk/podcasts-and-v…

Pulsating with excitement to do this with @DanielGwynEvans in his and Tamara’s stunning first season @TheRSC

🙏to Annie Pesskin for her review for journal of psychoanalytic psychotherapy: Chamberlain’s book is small but mighty..she packs such a fascinating and diverse range of subjects, all circle around the key question, ‘How does misogyny hide in plain sight in psychoanalysis?’

Stellar convo on how we relate today, and being able to be proved wrong 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Between @DrGuralnik and Devorah Baum at the @mcnallyjackson launch of her book On Marriage last week @yalepress @HamishH1931 @SotonEnglish
