Dr Kaplan-Solms is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and psychoanalyst in private practice. (She has trained under the auspices of the International Psychoanalytical Association (The British Psychoanalytical Society), and she has been instrumental - together with her colleagues - in the founding of the South African Psychoanalytical Initiative, of the South African Psychoanalytical Association and of the South African Psychoanalytic Confederation. The South African Psychoanalytical Initiative is now the South African Psychoanalytical Initiative College of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy). She has expedited the establishment of these organizations in her capacity as a SAPA Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst.
Currently, Dr Kaplan-Solms works comprehensively, with adults of all ages, as well as with parents (including parents-to-be). She consults in Paarl (in the Boland), Rondebosch (in Cape Town) and Online.
Dr Kaplan-Solms’s holistic approach integrates her experience across various disciplines (for example, the fields of speech, language and hearing pathology/therapy, neuropsychology, neuropsychoanalysis, education, occupational medicine/epidemiology, and otoneurology). Since 2001, she has volunteered as the Chairperson of a preventative, developmental organization; Youth Empowerment Action spans the developmental phases of conception to young-adulthood, as these phases unfold within the context of family life and social life, and of schooling. She focuses on inter-generational transfer of experience, and the prevention of social breakdown in general.
Dr Kaplan-Solms also offers supervision for all types of work, in all settings, within a conception-to-grave context. She teaches psychic development in part, and the meaning of psychoanalytical, developmental insight for the understanding and treatment of adults. Alongside the above professional involvements, she offers psychoanalytic reading groups.
Dr Kaplan-Solms also teaches and supervises Postgraduate Students and Interns in Neuropsychology at UCT (University of Cape Town), in Clinical Neuropsychoanalysis.
