Welcome to the Centre for Lacanian Analysis.

The Centre for Lacanian Analysis was established in 2006 as the first New Zealand association of researchers and clinical practitioners whose focus stems from the psychoanalytic theories and orientation to clinical practices of Jacques Lacan. The Centre is a not-for-profit incorporated society and has formulated an annual program of seminars, lectures and clinical training sessions.


The Centre has a membership program, and current membership is composed of clinical practitioners, academic researchers, postgraduate research students, and individuals in professions, including those of visual arts and design, who have an ongoing commitment to engaging with the works of Lacan.


We have held three Conferences with distinguished local and overseas speakers and maintain a programme of seminars and study groups.
