Daniel Widlöcher (8 June 1929 – 14 December 2021) was a French psychiatrist and academic.[1] He served as president of the International Psychoanalytical Association in 2001.
Widlöcher was born into an Alsatian family in Paris.[2] He started his career as a childhood psychiatrist at the Hôpital Ambroise Paré, directed by Jenny Aubry.[3] He spent his military service in Algeria, serving an adult military hospital.[2] Upon his return to Metropolitan France, he worked in neurology and psychiatry at Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital. He then earned his medical license and a doctorate in psychology.[2]
He became an assistant professor at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital. He served as consulting assistant from 1959 to 1980 and was subsequently a clinical professor from 1980 to 1996.[2] He was director of the psychopathology and pharmacology department at Inserm. He also held various positions at the French National Centre for Scientific Research.[2] He worked in the Ministry of Health from 1983 to 1984.[2]
Widlöcher became a psychoanalyst focused on childhood development.[4] He carried out analyses alongside Jacques Lacan from 1953 to 1960.[2] However, he later spoke out against Lacan's ideals, alleging that Lacan sought to be "the new Freud".[5] Alongside Donald Winicott and Wladimir Granoff [fr], he assisted in the foundation of the Association psychanalytique de France [fr].[6] He presided over the Association from 2001 to 2005. He was also President of the Association française de thérapie comportementale et cognitive from 1979 to 1980.[7] He then chaired the teaching committee of the Association psychanalyse et psychothérapies. He received a Sigourney Award in 1998.[8]
He died in Paris on 14 December 2021, at the age of 92.[9]
