Course Description

Overview

This second part of the Metapsychology series explores two influential psychoanalytic frameworks that expanded and transformed classical Freudian theory: Ego Psychology and Object Relations Theory.

Participants will examine the development of the concept of the ego, its adaptive functions, and its role in mediating internal conflicts and external reality. The training also introduces Object Relations Theory, focusing on how early relationships are internalized and shape personality, emotional life, and interpersonal functioning.

Building on the foundations established in Part One, this module provides a deeper understanding of personality development and contemporary psychoanalytic thinking.
