IPE offers training in Child and Adolescent
Psychoanalysis. Graduates of this program are eligible for certification
as a child and adolescent analyst by the American Psychoanalytic Association.
Staffed by a highly qualified faculty
of child and adolescent analysts, a number of whom are leaders
in the field, the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysis has
gained a national reputation for the quality of its educational program.
The curriculum includes didactic instruction in the theory and technique
of child and adolescent psychoanalysis, continuous case seminars, and
supervised psychoanalytic work.
Admission is open to graduates and candidates of institutes
of the American Psychoanalytic Association and institutes affiliated
with the International Psychoanalytical Association. Candidates in adult
psychoanalytic training who are interested in child analysis may concurrently
attend a monthly ongoing child seminar, and may apply to join the child training program. Although candidates are best prepared to enter the child program after completing two years of the adult program, applicants may be considered for admission earlier in their adult training, depending on their previous professional experience.
Seminars
The Child Program course work consists of two years of classes conducted on a weekly
basis for three trimesters. The training program is integrated with
the Institute's Division of Adult Psychoanalysis so that many prerequisites
for child training are covered in the candidate's four years of adult
classes. Child courses given in the adult program include theoretical
and clinical courses on child development and treatment, psychoanalytic
theories of development, and infant and child observation. Pre-latency,
latency, and adolescent stages of development are covered in the adult
classes on developmental theory, clinical technique, and case conferences.
Candidates and graduates from other institutes who wish to enter the
Child and Adolescent program can discuss their training curriculum with
the Division Chair prior to entering the program in order to insure
that they have been exposed to core courses in developmental concepts
in their adult program.
Supervised Clinical Work
Candidates treat a minimum of three cases (pre-latency, latency, and
adolescent) in supervised analyses. It is highly desirable for candidates
in the child and adolescent program to be in a personal analysis when
they begin this clinical work. Institute candidates
in the Adult Division who enter the child program may, with the approval
of the Student Progression committee and the Child Progression Committee,
begin a supervised child or adolescent analytic case at any point during
their adult classes.
Graduation Requirements
Graduation requirements from the Child and Adolescent Program are similar
to those in the Division of Adult Psychoanalysis: analytic maturity
and the capacity for independent analytic work. This includes having
successfully completed the didactic curriculum and demonstrated analytic
competence in supervised and unsupervised clinical work with at least
three cases (as evidenced by supervisors' written evaluations and the
candidate's own written summaries of his or her cases). A terminated
case is not required. It is essential that at least one of the candidate's
current cases is headed for satisfactory termination.
Annual Tuition: $650
Fees for Child Psychoanalytic Supervision:
