On September 26, Dr. William Greenstadt Exposes the Hero Myth

Our upcoming 90-minute Zoom call — “Psychoanalytic Concepts of the Universal Myth of the Hero” — finds renowned analyst Dr. William Greenstadt using Euripides’ play Herakles as a springboard to discuss the seductive, timeless power of the hero myth.

Understanding the psychological roots of the hero (and how it factors into a patient’s worldview) can be a powerful analytical tool. Learn to harness it on Sunday, September 27 at 10:30 a.m. PST.

Non-members pay $65; Attendees can qualify for 1.5 CE Credits

Welcome to Your New Clinical Community

Inclusive.

SPEAK YOUR MIND. EARN CE CREDITS.

LTP was built from the ground up with clinicians in mind. A space to earn continuing education credits while engaging in brisk, relevant psychoanalytic discussion.

We’re building an environment where every voice has the freedom and safety to speak openly about psychoanalysis, and we don’t shy away from complex or controversial topics.

Each of our monthly seminars offers CE Credit to attendees. Because you deserve credit for becoming a better analyst, counselor, LCSW, or any of a variety of medical professions.

We invite you to explore LTP at your leisure. Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or comments. We can't wait to meet you.

Founded by Dr. Aisha Abbasi

Let’s Talk Psychoanalysis was created by Dr. Aisha Abbasi — a psychoanalyst, author, educator, and speaker.

Dr. Abbasi is a Fellow of the American Board of Psychoanalysis and a member of both the American Psychoanalytic Association and the International Psychoanalytic Association. She serves as a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Florida Psychoanalytic Center and supervises candidates at the Seattle Psychoanalytic Society and Institute.

With decades of experience in clinical practice, teaching, and institutional leadership — including over 20 years at the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute, where she served as president — her work has been dedicated to advancing psychoanalytic thinking in both clinical and public contexts.

She is the author of The Rupture of Serenity: External Intrusions and Psychoanalytic Technique and co-editor of Privacy: Developmental, Cultural, and Clinical Realms. A recipient of APsA’s Master Teacher Award, Dr. Abbasi has published widely and continues to contribute to the field through writing, teaching, and public speaking.

A published poet in her native Urdu, Dr. Abbasi’s work reflects a deep engagement with both the clinical and human dimensions of psychoanalysis.
