Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Fellowships
The PINE Psychoanalytic Center is offering a Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Fellowship Program for 2018-2019. PINE is well known for our small classes, collegial approach to learning, and careful attention to the professional development of each student. The Fellowship will be limited to 8 fellows and is designed for early career psychotherapists or therapists who wish to deepen their knowledge of psychodynamic theories and techniques.
The core portion of the Fellowship will consist of group discussions facilitated by one or two teachers on Thursday evenings from 7:30-9:30 p.m. There will be five teaching modules each taught by different teachers throughout the year. The Fellows' current clinical experience will be used as a springboard for questions about basic psychodynamic/psychoanalytic concepts and techniques alongside readings of related literature. Fellows will also be taught clinical writing skills and have the opportunity to write about and present a clinical case to Fellowship faculty, supervisors, and individual mentors in the last month of the Fellowship program.
Each Fellow will be provided with:
- an individual mentor for professional/career advising
- a clinical supervisor, if needed, to enhance the development of psychotherapy skills
- access to psychoanalytic literature through PEP-web
- participation in PINE's clinical discussion group and community programs.
Mental health clinicians of all disciplines are encouraged to apply. We welcome diversity in our Fellows to maximize learning from each other.
Tuition for the Early Career Fellowship: $2,800 ($1,500 is applied to supervision); if an applicant already has an outside supervisor, tuition will be $1,300. A $250 deposit is due with the application. Download the application here. The deposit will be refunded (minus a $50 processing fee) if the applicant is not accepted or withdraws. The remaining tuition is due by August 1st, although plans can be made to pay in installments. Up to 58 CE/CME credits are available. Limited scholarship assistance can be considered on request.
Applications will be accepted through June, 2018. We will be interviewing applicants to make our final selections, and the 2018-2019 Fellows will be announced on July 15, 2018. If there are additional places for Fellows beyond that date, applications will be considered on a rolling basis.
