Prof. Helena Martens

Professor, Psychoanalyst and Scholar of Classical Psychoanalytic Theory

Prof. Helena Martens is a psychoanalyst, professor and scholar of Freud, Lacan and Klein, with an editorial focus on classical psychoanalytic theory, institutional transmission and conceptual rigour. At Psychoanalytic Board, her texts examine the foundations of psychoanalysis through analytical, essayistic and theoretically dense writing. Her work addresses the unconscious, desire, drive, fantasy, transference, repetition, interpretation, symptom formation, object relations and psychoanalytic ethics. Her style is elegant, theoretical and profound. Rather than reducing psychoanalysis to emotional advice or simplified self-help, Prof. Martens preserves its complexity as a field of clinical practice, conceptual thought and ethical transmission. Her articles are educational and theoretical. They do not constitute psychoanalytic treatment, psychotherapy, diagnosis, clinical supervision or individual mental health guidance.
