THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST wants to give not only already internationally established psychoanalysts, but also still unknown psychoanalysts the opportunity to post a self-written and not yet published article on the FrontPage of our online magazine!
Our Users then can leave comments, ask questions or discuss the articles in our forum. Our aim is to provide an international platform where for the first time anyone interested in psychoanalysis can exchange ideas on certain topics.
Articles are welcome in German and/ or English.
If you are interested, please send your article to
leadingarticle@theviennapsychoanalyst.at
(For reasons of readability, the male form is used with personal names, however the female form is also always intended.)
William Shakespeare and Sigmund Freud.
“Everywhere I go, a poet has been here before me” (Sigmund Freud)
No analysis will ever do justice to the scope and literary brilliance with which William Shakespeare illustrated the depths of the human condition. His iambic pentameter, or blank verse, is said to mimic the rhythm of the human heartbeat. The key to understanding his plays is empathy as the famous playwright had a profound and unsurpassed understanding of the human psyche - a gift that inspired both great admiration and ambivalence in Sigmund Freud.

We are happy to announce the launch of our new column "On the Couch" with the psychoanalyst Michaela Heger-Holeschofsky, where our readers can ask questions and receive professional advice. You are welcome to submit theoretical questions as well as personal concerns. Mag. Michaela Heger-Holeschofsky will answer your questions – including those submitted by children and adolescents – to the best of her knowledge. The column’s goal is to make psychoanalysis accessible to a wider, psychoanalytically interested audience. We look forward to your submissions!
Born in Vienna in 1979, Mag. Michaela Heger-Holeschofsky completed her studies at the Sigmund Freud University Vienna, as well as at the Psychoanalytic Seminar in Innsbruck. She currently runs her own private practice in Vienna.

Dear Readers,
Just in time for the summer, we had the spontaneous idea to open a new section: FREUD’S JOURNEYS.
Sigmund Freud and his family travelled a lot. The often groundbreaking insights and theories that Freud brought back with him from these
excursions (or wrote there) created the basis for psychoanalysis.
In this section, we will gradually trace Freud´s journeys and hope to provide you, dear readers, with the one or other suggestion to trace
Freud´s footsteps, and thus approach his work from a somewhat different angle.
Some of the hotels, restaurants and cafés that Freud visited during his lifetime are still in operation today (and still remember his visits). We would also like to use this section to draw attention to them as a way to, perhaps, discover hidden treasures.
Enjoy browsing and good travels!

Dear readers and listeners,
Since May 2015, the psychoanalytic radio show series "UNBEWUSST – die Lust am freien Sprechen" has been broadcasted live on every second Wednesday once a month.
For the last months, the radio team has been searching for other moderators, with the support of THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST.
Here we would like to thank you again for all your emails and applications!
Now it´s time, the radio team has decided and two new moderators have joined the team.
But not only that, through these two new hosts, it is now also possible to invite English-speaking guests to the program, so the radio series will no longer be broadcast only in German, but we will also sometimes broadcast English-language shows.
We are very proud to be able to offer this new feature from now on and all this live from Vienna!
This week we will introduce you to the male new arrival!
Welcome to the team, Kaan ÖZEMEK!

Once upon a time not too long ago, Bernhard Staudinger (from Radio Orange) and Désirée Prosquill (from THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST) met and spoke about maybe bringing psychoanalysis on the radio.
After many wrong turns and detours through dark forests and deep valleys, THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST is particularly proud and happy to announce that Vienna will finally be enriched by a psychoanalytic live radio show starting on May 13, 2015.
The radio show will be available in our online magazine THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST for all without radio and for all interested in psychoanalysis worldwide!
How it came to this idea, is not at all that difficult to understand...

Dear Readers!
At the end of 2014, just before the beginning of 2015, we want to point out two poems by Sigmund Freud, which he wrote to Wilhelm Fließ.
The first poem was written on December 29, 1899, due to the birth of Conrad, the second son of Wilhelm Fließ, who coincidentally shared the birthday with his older brother Robert.

„Unluckily an author’s creative power does not always obey his will: the work proceeds as it can, and often presents itself to the author as something independent or even alien.”
(Moses and Monotheism, 1939)
“If we cannot see things clearly we will at least see clearly what the obscurities are.”
(Inhibitions, Symptoms and Anxiety, 1926)

FAQ
Why is the magazine named THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST?
The online magazine THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST attempts to create a context between the great psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud and the city Vienna in which the Psychoanalysis was born.
THE VIENNA PSYCHOANALYST can, of course, be personalized, but it would be better figuratively, it should be understood as a messenger or courier for international psychoanalytic contributions directly from Vienna.
