Adult Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Training Program

2008-2009


Curriculum

A core series of clinical seminars and courses is designed to assist participants in conceptualizing and expanding their knowledge of psychodynamic psychotherapy.  The courses aim to deepen each participant's understanding of conceptual foundations and clinical methods of psychodynamic psychotherapy, and to encourage a critical and reflective attitude toward clinical work.  Courses are given on Thursday evenings beginning in September from 7:30 to 10:00 P.M. throughout each thirty-three week academic year. Additional seminars and study groups tailored to particular interests of participants may be made available on an elective basis upon application to the Director of the Psychotherapy Program. The Faculty is drawn from the membership of The New York Psychoanalytic Institute. The courses can be used for continuing medical education under the auspices of the American Psychoanalytic Association.
