Welcome to Issue 64 of The Letter, Irish Journal for Lacanian Psychoanalysis.
Excerpt from the Editorial:
"A crucial part of the work of the School of Psychotherapy in St. Vincent’s University Hospital, Dublin is to represent the contribution which the psychoanalytic field can make to our understanding and treatment of psychopathology.
On 9th December 2016 we held the fourth in a series of conferences in recent years which propose dialogue between psychiatric, medical and psychoanalytic practices. The conference asked a question: What is Anxiety? Treatment Challenges – Psychiatric, Medical and Psychoanalytic Approaches in Dialogue.
This Issue of The Letter Irish Journal for Lacanian Psychoanalysis carries the proceedings of the day. I am honoured to have been asked by its editor, Patricia McCarthy, to contribute this editorial. I am confident that this Issue will join its predecessors in providing very valuable and worthwhile reading for clinicians who are concerned about their practice, particularly when faced with the phenomena of anxiety."
