Johan Cullberg (6 January 1934 – 14 June 2022)[1][2][3] was a Swedish professor in psychiatry and psychology, researcher, psychoanalyst, and author of a number of internationally recognised textbooks.
Career
[edit]He started his career at the department of gynecology at the Karolinska University Hospital, Karolinska Institute, in Stockholm studying the effects of birth control. He became head of one of the outpatient clinics in the Nacka Project, doing groundbreaking work on psychiatric care outside the hospital in Sweden. He was recognised for advocacy of lower doses of antipsychotic medicine, reduction in compulsory treatment and more humane psychiatric care.[4] He was awarded the Dobloug Prize (Swedish: Doblougska Priset), a literature prize awarded by the Swedish Academy in 2008.
Cullberg was the son of bishop John Cullberg and brother of painters Erland Cullberg and Carin Adler, and of Staffan Cullberg, who has been head of the Swedish National Arts Council.
