“Trained as a psychiatrist, I worried about losing sight of the person behind the symptoms. Psychoanalytic training gave me a deeper understanding of my patients’ problems and a way to help them with their human struggles as much as their symptoms. ”

There's more to Understand

Psychoanalysis allows a deeper understanding — of one’s thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Because psychoanalysis invites greater awareness, New Center students form more effective relationships with their clients and effect more enduring change. The following New Center programs give clinicians deeper knowledge, better results, and ultimately — greater fulfillment.

The New Center for Psychoanalysis is affiliated with the American Psychoanalytic Association and the International Psychoanalytic Association.
