Professional Congress of the Albertinen Academy on Trust, Truth, and Deception in Psychotherapy
The Psychodynamic Days Langeoog have become a fixed date in the German-speaking psychotherapy calendar over the past years. The combination of a professionally demanding program and the special atmosphere of the car-free North Sea island attracts practitioners from clinics and private practice, as well as teachers and training candidates. Conversations arise between sand, sun, and sea air that would hardly be conceivable in an urban conference hotel.
Under the motto 'Questions of Trust – Truth and Deception in Psychotherapy,' the tenth anniversary edition addresses a central area of tension in therapeutic work. How does trust arise in a relationship where one person opens up without knowing exactly what happens to what has been opened? What role do self-deception, blind spots, and implicit truths play? How can therapists offer reliability in times of societal uncertainty – without oversimplifying?
The program is divided into keynote speeches, topic-specific forums, a panel discussion, and 27 seminars. The latter allow for in-depth work in small groups on clinical, methodological, and conceptual issues. The keynote speeches and panel discussion are video-recorded; participants receive access to the recordings, which is particularly relevant for those who cannot attend parallel program items.
The organizer is the Albertinen Academy from Hamburg, a central institution for psychodynamic continuing education in northern Germany. Through the academy's tradition, the congress connects with a broad network of clinicians, researchers, and educators. Registration is via the academy and the Med-Congress platform; places are usually booked quickly.
With its tenth edition, the conference series celebrates an anniversary that is also reflected in the program: Classic psychodynamic topics are supplemented with current references to society, media, and political reality. Trust is discussed not only as a therapeutic variable but also as a societal resource.
Unlike purely online congresses, Langeoog deliberately emphasizes presence – the island itself becomes a resonance space for conversations, self-experience, and collegial exchange. However, the parallel recordings allow for individual follow-up of the program.
The detailed program for 2026 with speakers and seminar topics will be published by the organizer in spring 2026.
