נתן קלרמן
I was born in Sweden in 1953, studied psychology at the University of Stockholm, and then moved to Israel in 1980. In Israel, I created a family and worked as a clinical psychologist. After training at the Moreno Institute in New York, I became a practitioner of psychodrama and sociodrama, while trying to delineate their therapeutic and psychosocial effectiveness.
For many years, I worked in Amcha: an Israeli treatment center supporting Holocaust survivors and their families. Additionally, I lectured on Holocaust trauma at the International School for Holocaust Studies in Yad Vashem. As a child of Holocaust survivors, my primary area of study focused on the transmission of Holocaust trauma.
During the pandemic in 2020, I retired from my professional work and wrote a medical science fiction book about a psychotherapist who accepted the Coronavirus as a patient in therapy.
Reflecting on my seventy years life, it seems to have passed so quickly, almost like a single week, with each decade resembling a mere day. Looking back on this metaphorical week, I am struck by the twists and turns that have shaped my life's journey. Throughout these seven "days," I kept rediscovering the profound power of imagination, which enabled me to navigate the complex world around me.
