TRAINING

Basic Training Graduates: 160 students

Advanced Training graduates: 50

​

Each year there are almost 100 applicants. We accept 40. Each applicant has two interviews -- please tell me if you are available to do a 45 minute interview. The applicant pool improves remarkably every year. We invite half of the best Basic Training graduates to the Advanced Training.

​

This year there are two fifth year electives: Infant Observation and How To Do Supervision. In the Spring and next year we will have a number of 5-10 session electives on specific topic. If you are interested in teaching such an elective, please contact Daniel Yu d.yu.lcsw@gmail.com.

​

SUPERVISION

There are more than 120 students in once a week supervision. Students in the Supervision Training course are supervising second year students. We need supervisors for the incoming students. Please contact Cathy Siebold for more information: csiebolddsw@gmail.com

​

TREATMENT

56 patients in 3-5 session/week analysis

69 patients in 1-2 session/week psychotherapy

​

The students now pay a minimum fee of $30/session. They are wonderful patients. Please contact Lana Fishkin MD to sign up. I think, I do not know for sure, that we may have the largest psychodynamic and psychoanalytic treatment program in the world.

​

TOUR

A great success. We were able to go to Tibet. Next year there will be a special 2-3 days for child analysts and therapists. Stay tuned.

​

NEWSLETTER

We hope to have the first issue in June. To submit and for more details---Contact the editor Carolyn Weyand .

​

NEWS FROM CHINA:

CAPA students and graduates are organizing local organizations that eventually will be part of a national organization. One group holds monthly movie meetings with a psychoanalytic discussion of the film. Another group has organized several national conferences. Gordon Warme is their mentor.
