About me
Tamara Dellutri, MA, LLM, is a psychoanalyst formed in the Lacanian tradition. She has a background in the visual Arts and British Public Health and Law, with a research focus on the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD). Her current psychoanalytically-oriented research examines how the CRPD principles are upheld within and outside the British judicial and penal system, as well as how this reflects the presuppositions of legal and mental capacity in the UK.
She is a member of the International of Forums: School of Psychoanalysis of the Forums of the Lacanian Field (IF-SPFLF), member of Foro del Campo Lacaniano de México, member of Lacan/UK and she is currently enrolled at the Collège de Clinique Psychanalytique de Paris. Ms Dellutri practices in the UK and lectures on psychoanalysis, art and culture, nationally and internationally.

Approach
For over a century, psychoanalysis’s clinical research has highlighted that the human subject must find a way to inhabit their own body, a body riddled with excitations, unknown processes, and unexpected events that exceed and bypass any attempt at mastery. Not only does the body fail to live up to the ideals and demands forged by the Other, but so do words fail to account for the ferocity of its experiences.
Unlike the various demands of self-regulation, a Lacanian analysis opens a space of transformation for our symptoms that is oriented by the singular marks of one and each human life.
I work analytically with patients from different backgrounds and presentations with a focus on so-called eating disorders, work-related anxiety, different ways of managing and living with psychosis, as well as relational, reproductive, gender and sexual-related conflicts. I have worked for NHS Wales (placement) and I currently have a private practice, in Swansea and in Fitzrovia, London. These two clinical settings put me in touch with a wide spectrum of patients across the British social bond including migrants, persons with disabilities, people from ethnic minorities, LGBTQ+ and other minority-representing communities.
An analysis is a choice you might want to make on the knowledge that there are no guaranteed outcomes. If you would like to initiate an analysis, please contact me to schedule a first appointment.
Unless specified otherwise, in the Lacanian School of Psychoanalysis, sessions are variable in length. We can talk about this form of treatment and intervention during our first interview.
