Reading Philip Bromberg: A 6 session reading group

Reading Philip Bromberg

A 6 session reading group on the work of Philip Bromberg.

Colleagues of Philip Bromberg have joined together to offer a program to discuss and celebrate Bromberg’s work.  There will be a series of six, monthly, online group discussion meetings, each focused on a single article of Bromberg’s, followed in July by a larger memorial to Bromberg’s life and work (the details of the larger memorial will be announced shortly).  All these meetings are accessible to members of all the professional communities across the analytic and trauma worlds who have followed Bromberg’s work over the decades. 

Each of the monthly online reading group meetings will be a discussion of a paper selected by the group leader(s), who are all people who Bromberg deeply influenced.  These meetings will begin in February and will continue monthly through July.

Attendance is free.  To facilitate discussion, attendance at each group meeting will be limited to 25 people.  In the interest of accommodating everyone who wishes to attend, we ask that you sign up for no more than two of the six meetings. Each meeting will be announced one month before it is to take place, and the announcement will be accompanied by instructions for registration.
