Join ISPS-US from November 6–8, 2026, at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in NYC (and hybrid online via Zoom) for Psychosis and the Social Link, ISPS-US's landmark 25th annual conference.
Rather than treating psychosis strictly as an individual deficit, we will examine how psychological distress reflects wider social fractures, intergenerational trauma, and systemic breakdown, and how healing occurs through relational connection, symbolic meaning-making, and "disalienation."
Rooted in the seminal work of Dr. Françoise Davoine and Jean-Max Gaudillière (Madness and the Social Link), this year’s conference features premier psychoanalytic authors and thought leaders, including Dr. Danielle Knafo (From Breakdown to Breakthrough: Psychoanalytic Treatment of Psychosis), Dr. Deborah Luepnitz (Schopenhauer’s Porcupines), and former APA Division 39 President Dr. Marilyn Charles.
