Conference in Los Angeles in March 2020

The Conference on Twins on LA was rescheduled to May 14/15 2021, and took place online. It started on Friday evening, with a viewing of the documentary film “Three Identical Strangers”, and comments about the film from Nancy Segal, and debated the ethical issues it raised. The following day Ricardo Ainslie presented his work with twins, followed by my paper, “Longing to be known. Twins and Identity”.

My paper generated a great deal of interest in the dynamics of twin relationships and how we work with this in psychoanalytic settings. A lively discussion opened up new ideas for exploration and further research. The paper is available to read on the Publications page.
