Rodney Street Psychoanalytic Practice was founded in 2000 by Mark Fisher (known also to longstanding friends and colleagues as Simon).
Mark has experience of working for universities, the national health service, private clinics, and commmunity organisations. Born in Merseyside, he was educated in London, Israel, Texas, and Oxford. His interest in psychoanalysis began whilst he was a research fellow at Oxford in the 1970s and '80s. He returned to Liverpool in 1990 for a clinical post.
During two decades in NHS he achieved the grade of professional lead in psychotherapy. He is a member of the New Lacanian School of Psychoanalysis which has a branch society in London. For many years has been a member of The British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and regularly contributes to its journals.
Along with other analysts he founded the Merseyside Association for Psychoanalysis to promote the theory and practice of psychoanalysis in Merseyside and the Northwest. MAP holds regular seminars and case conferences for people interested in the teachings and clinical applications of psychoanalysis.
