<br>
Yesterday at a day to give a tribute to Jean-Michel Vappereau<br>
I had the pleasure to reconnect to Scully-Robert Groom, a colleague<br>
living partly in Berlin and Los Angeles. He gave me great<br>
legal information regarding the legal statute of psychoanalysis in the USA.<br>
I discovered that except for New York State and Massachusetts, the<br>
statute is similar to France's!! Anyone in the 48 other states can<br>
decide they work as psychoanalysts as a private practice. They can put<br>
a placard saying so in front of their office.<br>
<br>
I have registered him on the lacanalyst mailing list. Robert can you be<br>
kind enough to explain the situation which is so seriously misunderstood<br>
by psychoanalysts in the US.<br>
<br>
Tell us<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
