Freudian Reading Group facilitated by Garrett Tanner, PhD

This reading group is offered to explore the foundational texts of our field. Participants will engage in the seminal works of Sigmund Freud that all subsequent psychoanalytic theory – intentionally or unintentionally – responds to. Special attention will be given to texts on metapsychology and Freud’s corresponding case histories demonstrating these same dynamics. A chronological reading will allow one to observe how Freud amended and corrected his theory of the unconscious in real time as consequence to clinical feedback, or his own “reality testing.” This group will meet in person at the Central Austin Public Library once monthly on the first Sunday afternoon of each month from June – December 2025.
