Introducing the Clinical Series — a collection of lectures detailing psychoanalytic theory as it relates to clinical practice.   In this lecture, the first in the Clinical Series, Dr Carveth discusses Freud, Klein, Kierkegaard, and Buber on anxiety and guilt.

In this lecture, the last in the 2017 Bion series, Dr Carveth returns to the text by Neville and Joan Symington, "The Clinical Thinking of Wilfred Bion".

In this lecture, the first in the 2017 Bion series, Dr Carveth introduces the group psychology of Sigmund Freud and Wilfred Bion.

In this lecture, the sixth and final in the 2016 Kleinian series, Dr Carveth discusses manic defences, reparation, manic reparation, early Oedipus complex, projective identification, and countertransference.     Delivered to the HamAva Institute, Tehran, Iran.

In this lecture, the fifth in the 2016 Kleinian series, Dr Carveth dives in-depth into Klein's depressive (or reparative) position, depressive anxiety as 'concern', depressive vs persecutory guilt, and manic defences.   Delivered to the HamAva Institute, Tehran, Iran.

In this lecture, the fourth in the 2016 Kleinian series, Dr Carveth dives in-depth into Klein's paranoid-schizoid position, the pathology of the paranoid-schizoid position, envy, and attacks on linking.   Delivered to the HamAva Institute, Tehran, Iran.

In this lecture, the third in the 2016 Kleinian series, Dr Carveth discusses Klein's paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions, a dialectical version of Kleinian theory, defences as phantasies, grief over what we are doing to mother's body (Mother Nature), and an account of Ridley Scott's "Alien" using a psychoanalytic lens.   Delivered to the HamAva Institute, Tehran, Iran.

In this lecture, the second in the 2016 Kleinian series, Dr Carveth discusses Klein's "Our Adult World and its Roots in Infancy" (1959). Notable is the fact that in this paper, published the year before Klein died in 1960, there is no mention whatever of the death instinct. Also notable is her constant emphasis upon the important role of the real mother, thus giving the lie to the widespread myth that Klein ignored the real environment and the real mother.   Delivered to the HamAva Institute, Tehran, Iran.
