Continuing Education
The concepts derived from psychoanalytic theory and practice has application in
many areas of human endeavor. The Continuing Education Committee offers colloquia,
symposia, lectures, workshops and seminars for the members of the Institute and
for individuals and groups in the community. The Committee strives to present those
programs which are not currently available in the community such as (but not limited
to): child and adolescent psychoanalytic theories and process; contemporary and
historical psychoanalytic theories and practices; applied psychoanalysis, such as
an examination of the impact of culture, race, gender, sexual orientation and the
arts to psychoanalysis.
Instructors include SPSI faculty members and clinical associates, as well as prominent
psychoanalysts from this country and abroad. Although no degree or certification
is granted by the Committee, these offerings provide unique opportunities for continuing
education and enhancement of creativity and work.
Continuing Education credits in medicine, psychology, nursing, social work, etc.
are available.
