50 years deserves a proper celebration. On the evening of May 28, we are gathering at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum to honor the history, impact, and future of the Barr-Harris Center for the Study of Separation and Loss in Children. This is not just a party. It is a room full of people who believe deeply in supporting children and families through grief, and that is worth showing up for. If your organization is looking for a meaningful way to be present in the Chicago mental health and psychoanalytic community, corporate sponsorship opportunities are still available. Drinks, bites, speakers, and 50 years of stories. We hope to see you there. Thursday, May 28 | 5:30 to 8:30 PM | Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum Register here and learn more: https://lnkd.in/gZ3Se9-j #BarrHarris50 #Chicago #ChildMentalHealth #Psychoanalysis #CorporateSponsor #GriefAndLoss

About us
The Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute transforms the lives of individuals, families and communities using psychoanalytic knowledge to help them grow and thrive. Since its founding in 1932, the Institute has contributed to the field of psychoanalysis through education and scholarship. Today, the Institute offers a contemporary model of psychoanalytic thought relevant to individual and community life that is represented in all its education programs, providing advanced training in the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. The Institute’s Treatment Centers provide psychoanalytically informed services for children, adolescents and adults. Continuing education and community engagement programs from the Institute bring psychoanalytic ideas to public discussions of cultural and social issues. Psychoanalysis is both a theory of the mind and a method of therapy. As a theory of the mind, psychoanalysis offers a comprehensive, in-depth explanation of being human: why we do what we do; why we want what we desire; and how we become the people we become. As a method of therapy, psychoanalysis explores the individual within the context in which they live. Psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists work in mental health clinics, community agencies, schools and other organizations. They consult with mental health practitioners and also offer consultation to those who work with people in any setting, including neighborhood organizations, corporations, family businesses, lawyers, educators and many others. Human beings and being human are at the core of the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute’s mission. The Institute is dedicated to advancing the knowledge of human beings – their feelings, thoughts and behaviors – and to improving people’s lives.
