Phillip Freeman

Psychiatrist and Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst, Boston Psychoanalytic Institute

Dr. Freeman has held faculty appointments at Harvard Medical School and Boston University Medical School, where he was Director of Medical Student Education and Vice Chair in the Department of Psychiatry. His recent publications focus on themes of reality and illusion in the analytic setting, virtual reality technologies, and the arts. His book, Adaptations: Disquisitions on Psychoanalysis 1997-2006, is a collection of satirical essays about the institutions and practitioners of psychoanalysis. He frequently discusses and consults on productions of films and plays in Boston and New York. His private practice is in Newton, Massachusetts.
