As we step into Spring 2025, we’re excited to offer a range of courses that deepen our reflections and enhance our clinical practice. Rachel Newcombe, LCSW and psychoanalyst, recently taught The Unconscious Goes Back to School, a dynamic course that brought together an interdisciplinary group of participants to explore the unconscious processes alive in the classroom and teaching.

The second course, currently underway, is led by Lisa Koshkarian, Ph.D., who uses a Freirean pedagogical approach to invite participants to explore the kinship object, a construct organized around our innate capacities for love and care and our inherent interdependence. 

Looking ahead, Clara Brandt, Psy.D., will lead a three-week workshop to support clinicians beginning their independent practices, when the frame becomes newly personal. The workshop will guide clinicians through frame-related decisions, setting fees, patient screening, and professional development. Sign up here.
