Short History
After Lithuania regained its independence from the Soviet Union, several people - the first generation of future psychoanalysts - went to Finland to study psychoanalysis. After his studies, one of them, Stasė Meškauskienė, returned to Lithuania and continued his work developing psychoanalysis in Lithuania, contributing to the growth of a new generation of psychoanalysts. The second generation of psychoanalysts studied in Amsterdam also at the Han Groen-Prakken Institute for Eastern Europe. Since 2011 Vilnius Society of Psychoanalysts has offered training in Vilnius.
