Training in Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysis
This is one of the pioneering programs in child and adolescent analysis in the country, and of the most preeminent. The faculty has been instrumental in setting standards for training which are followed nationwide. In this program, training in child and adolescent analysis is undertaken in addition to the regular training in adult analysis. It comprises an additional two years of course work and the supervised analysis of at least two children and one adolescent. Students provide low-fee diagnosis and treatment whenever possible. Members of the program are also involved in community outreach that includes consultations to schools and nurseries.------------- more information >>
