Winnicott Online Theory Course

This course is an introduction to the main theoretical ideas and clinical practice of DW Winnicott. It will be based on his original writings, spanning his career as a paediatrician and child psychoanalyst for 40 years. The notions of the mother’s function as a holding environment, transitional objects, the role of play for authentic selfhood, the true and false self, and aggression and the anti-social tendency will be explored. This will take the format of weekly seminars centred around the reading, discussion and application of his ideas.
