Danielle Knafo, PhD
The New Sexual Landscape and Contemporary Psychoanalysis
In Conversation with Spyros Orfanos, PhD, ABPP
“This new volume is a truly outstanding contribution to psychoanalytic thinking. It is a wake-up call to all practitioners... We clinicians must adjust to a sea change in how gender and sexuality are evolving and how these transformations are related to our digital era. […] I highly recommend [this book] to anyone who is interested in the future of psychotherapy in an era dominated by technology.”
-Glen O. Gabbard, MD, Clinical Professor,
Baylor College of Medicine
