Amir Hakimjavadi, PhD Candidate

I am Amir Hakimjavadi, a dedicated member of the International Association for Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (IARPP), currently serving as an official board member of the Iranian chapter while pursuing a PhD in Health Psychology and Psychiatry at URV University in Spain. My academic journey is complemented by my translation of Stephen Mitchell's influential work, "Relationality: From Attachment to Intersubjectivity," published by a leading psychoanalytic publisher in Iran, which aims to establish a theoretical framework for the relational approach to psychoanalysis and promote its development within the Iranian context. My individual relational psychoanalytic practice has been significantly shaped by the mentorship of Dr. Shahin Sakhi, a UCLA instructor and former president of Grex, the West Coast branch of the AK Rice Institute, alongside several other respected supervisors, providing me with invaluable insights over the past seven years. I currently manage both individual therapy and a relational group therapy that has been operational for over a year, adhering to the principles of relational psychoanalysis. Additionally, I am actively involved in a journal club focused on relational psychoanalytic literature in Iran, where I am committed to organizing future meetings for the IARPP-Iran chapter to present foundational articles that enhance scholarship and interest among Iranian practitioners and students. As part of my interdisciplinary research during my PhD studies, I am exploring relational-oriented psychoanalytic immunology, particularly in relation to psychosomatic and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) patients, aiming to investigate the effects of psychoanalytic therapy on psychological well-being and its influence on the immune system in immunodeficient patients.
