Vera Yung
Lacanian psychoanalyst in Berlin
Specialised in working with people with an international and migrational background.
About Vera
I maintain a practice of psychoanalysis in Lacanian and Freudian orientation, and offer individual psychotherapy for adults to address trauma, anxiety, differences (religious, political, cultural, class, sexualities), and family/relationship issues.
I am experienced in working with people of an international and migrational background.

My Approach
Psychoanalysis, unlike other forms of therapies, is not a method of neutralisation (forcing the patient to accept and become what others consider as "normal", "healthy", or "positive"). These forces and believes oftentimes exhaust the patients and left them no room to speak for themselves.
My practice of psychoanalysis offer space for those who want to speak to speak with dignity.
Psychoanalysis offers each person the opportunity to transform from a passive object of mental illness to an agent to sublimate our unique symptoms with dignity, to live with what we could not live without.
Qualifications and Experience
Education
Prior to my psychoanalytic training, I was pursuing an academic career in the interdisciplinary fields of philosophy, literature, and cultural anthropology.
As an active member of the Colorado Analytic Forum of the Lacanian Field, in the International of Forums-School of Psychoanalysis of the Lacanian Field (IF-SPFLF), I advocate for issues that concern the collaboration among English-speaking psychoanalysts around the world, I research on the politics of pathology (the politics in what is considered as an illness) and particularly, the conflicts and potential working-together between clinicians in medical science and psychoanalysis particularly on the treatment of psychoses and other severe mood disorders.
