The Institute offers a one-year Fellowship to introduce clinically-immersed professionals to psychoanalytic work and to PANY, and to supplement their education with a clinically relevant psychoanalytic viewpoint. Classes are held monthly on Tuesday evenings throughout the academic year. Each fellow is also assigned a mentor who meets with the fellow on an individualized basis to personally tailor the fellowship experience to the Fellow’s needs and interests. Fellows may go on to apply to the psychodynamic psychotherapy program, the Intensive-Bridge program, or to the psychoanalytic program.
In addition to academic study, training is enriched by ongoing case conferences and clinical psychotherapy supervision provided by PANY faculty. Patients are drawn from the clinical practices of students. Candidates are also required to be currently undergoing their own personal psychodynamic psychotherapy or psychoanalysis as an essential facet of their training. Successful completion of the program leads to a certificate in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.
