FOUNDER · INSTITUTIONAL PRESIDENT
Carla Viviane Guedes Ferreira
Clinical psychoanalyst, supervisor, writer and researcher. Founder of REDE ELLe and responsible for its originating ethical, clinical and institutional direction.
From experience to thought. From thought to institution.
Carla’s trajectory is not presented as a line without ruptures. Clinical practice, study, writing, motherhood, work and personal transformations all shape how she understands psychoanalysis and what an institution must be able to sustain.
Rather than turning her history into automatic authority, Carla subjects it to elaboration, research and responsibility. Her books and the decision to build REDE ELLe emerge from this movement.
Founder’s statement
“REDE ELLe was born from a sovereign heart.”
For Carla, however, sovereignty does not dispense with dialogue, limits or structure. An originating vision becomes an institution only when it accepts being documented, shared and sustained by clear responsibilities.
One direction, different forms of work.
01 · Clinical practice
Psychoanalytic listening, personal analysis and responsibility toward the singularity of each path.
02 · Training and supervision
The construction of a clinical position, reading, writing, case elaboration and professional boundaries.
03 · Writing and research
Transforming experience into question, argument and work without turning intimacy into spectacle.
04 · Institutional leadership
Authorship of REDE ELLe’s vision and responsibility for its ethical, clinical and symbolic direction.
05 · Psychoanalysis, AI and subjectivity
The investigation that gave rise to the formulation “Psychoanalysis with Integrated AI”, preserving the human place of listening, authorship and decision.
Writing without using one’s own pain as a showcase.
Carla’s writing moves through memory, body, bonds, elaboration and questions of the present. Her books preserve the distinctions between testimony, essay, investigation and clinical practice. Life participates in the work; it does not replace the labour of thinking it through.
Patients are not proof of authority.
Clinical work builds experience, but the stories of those who entrust their speech to the clinic remain protected. REDE ELLe does not publish intimacies to produce impact, turn suffering into a promise or confuse exposure with truth.
