For the second date, I picked October 3, 1893. The most significant person mentioned in this date is Clara Thompson, born on this date, who was considered a progressive figure in American Psychoanalysis in the 1940’s. Her career focused on the psychology of women, psychoanalysis, transference and counter-transference, and psychiatry. In 1943, she founded a training institute that later became known as The William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis, and Psychology, which offers psychoanalysis training and treatment centers. Till this day, this institute offers the public a variety of affordable clinical services with different programs for professions and the community. In everything she did, Thompson promoted a feminist viewpoint.
