Arminda Aberastury
Arminda Aberastury
Arminda Aberastury (1910–1972), known as La Negra, was an early Argentinian psychoanalyst.[1]
She was born in Buenos Aires. Through her brother Frederico, who suffered from mental illness, she came to meet Enrique Pichon-Rivière, and married him in 1937. She joined a local, mostly European group interested in psychoanalysis.[1]
Receiving a training analysis from Ángel Garma, one of the group, Arberastury then developed the analysis of children in the style of Melanie Klein and Sophie Morgenstern. She led a seminar on the area, 1948 to 1952, for the Argentinian Psychoanalytic Association. She committed suicide in 1972, having been afflicted with a disfiguring skin disease.[1]
