Did not know 'bout this but not surprised...'tis sad. Happenin' in every field (pahrdon the vernacular, keeps the bots away plus fun fer this unemployed newyawk actress ;-)...
Analysis has its flaws (that's the "psycho" part!) but even if we just look at the women who contributed mightily in the academic realm... those contributions were massive! Also in terms of writin' 'bout films--havin' been quite "entrenched" in film semiotics back in the day fer a time--I crossed paths with many of the names you mention above in my "studies" (Lacan of course became the "darlin'" of the cinéastes & "profs"...) an' I studied at Paris III w/Lacanians incl. Christian Metz & also took classes w/ Lacanian Julia Kristeva (la machine we called her! so brilliant could talk for hours nonstop!)
That said, I think women ('specially we of the hebraic faith) better think twice before seekin' out help b/c with "therapists" like THESE who needs enemies?! (oy)
fwiw I find it disturbin' no end that in 21st C America both Einstein & Freud are bein' dismissed as "fakers" (we know why...)....vs the totally brilliant minds an' fallible humans ('specially the latter) they were...applies ta most any genius ferhecksakes. My "fave-o-rite professor I never had" Ruth Wisse (I've heard her speak in person an' avidly seek out her online lectures, articles) has one lecture lauding Freud's great exploration of humor (jooish humor as it were). What would Hollywood have been without Hitchcock (trooth & bullshart mixed in--his "fredian" films were non pareils!) tangentially.... Freud's niece Martha / Tom Freud was both talented and fascinating, also erased/eRAZED from the public eye....
Been enjoyin' yer articles on Tablet--so glad to have jus' found "yer stack!"

Worthy of a write-up?
Herbalism too! abolished now are all the gray haired, always white, slightly zaftiq ladies who studied with Susun S. Weed an' spent their days barefoot an' makin' tinctures & salves...to heal all of us who turned away from Big Pharma an' over the counter. These were the lovely ladies who filled pages of Mothering Magazine, my "bible" when my girls were little... So Stephen H Buhner was close with all the lovely ladies an' his "lyme remedy" cured me of that nasty "bug" sans meds / antibiotics.... He wrote about the new (younger / "fiercer") generation of bipoc woke uninformed "healers" (should be heels!) who have now ousted him (see below)...along with ejectin' the lovely aforementioned "Wise Women" who were the matriarchs of the movement... (I have a friend who did train with Susun!).... hate ta say it--the faux feminists were likely even "wurse" in this case....
At the risk of generalizing, it has been my long held belief that most female psychoanalysts are unknowingly drawn into the field to simply "fix themselves". (And alot of them need to)..

Your word for what the faux (foe) feminists have done to the 2nd Wave heroines like yourself, Matricide, is perfect. Ignorant ungrateful bints
Like most other institutions, psychoanalysis has been fully captured by the marxist anti-Zionist/antisemitic nutjobs.
