New Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy One-Year Program

PSYCHOANALYTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY PROGRAMThe Cleveland Psychoanalytic Center has offered programs in psychoanalytic psychotherapy for over 25 years.  Students and clinicians learn to apply psychoanalytic ideas in a variety of clinical settings with a wide range of clients and patients.Our new one-year Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program is designed for practitioners who are eager to learn the principles and practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy to enhance their clinical skills and deepen their work. It is also designed for professionals from related fields who wish to further their understanding of human dynamics. The program offers a theoretical beginning with clinically relevant readings and case vignettes.  In addition, participants will study child development and its applicability to psychoanalytic psychotherapy with adults.  The course will cover important aspects of psychotherapy from the first phone call through termination.  We will address assessment, case formulation, the therapeutic relationship, and technique.All students enrolled in the course are strongly encouraged to be in supervision.  Many of our former students have affirmed the importance of supervision and its usefulness in enhancing the didactic experience.  We will help connect students with psychoanalytic supervisors.The program will begin in September 2017 on Thursday evenings from 6:30-8:00pm. The cost is $1550; student fee is $1085 with student ID. Payment plans are available and CEUs provided.Application is due by June 1, 2017.  Questions: Contact the Program Chair, Colleen Coakley 216-287-7480 or by email colleen_coakley@yahoo.com.
