    The Return of Meaning. Psychoanalytic Principles in Psychiatric Practice. A Remedy by Truth (2024)

    Can psychiatry benefit from psychoanalytic thinking without abandoning scientific rigour? Drawing on Mark Kinet's Psychoanalytic Principles in Psychiatric Practice: A Remedy by Truth, this lively conversation between two virtual hosts introduces themes such as unconscious meaning, therapeutic listening, transference, subjectivity, diagnosis, and the place of truth in mental health treatment. The works of Sigmund Freud, Sandor Ferenczi, Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, Donald Winnicott, Jacques Lacan, attachment theory, infant research and neuropsychoanalysis are thereby integrated. Rather than opposing psychiatry and psychoanalysis, this episode examines how both perspectives can enrich one another in everyday clinical practice. Ideal for psychiatrists, psychotherapists, psychologists, trainees, and anyone interested in a more humane and reflective approach to mental suffering.
