PCPG INTENSIVE STUDY PROGRAM IS ACCEPTING FALL 2023 APPLICATIONS

PCPG is excited to offer our Intensive Study Program in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy beginning in the fall of 2023. We offer a unique, theoretically-grounded immersion in psychoanalytic thinking about couple relationships and couple psychotherapy. PCPG’s program is designed to help clinicians build ballast by increasing their understanding of the pressures and dynamics that affect couple relationships through the study of contemporary psychoanalytic theory. 

PCPG’s program explores foundational ideas that have been developed over the last 50 years at Tavistock Relationships in London. We also include additional contemporary psychoanalytic thinking, such as relational psychoanalysis, self-psychology, attachment theory, link theory, and field theory, as they illuminate our understanding of couple life.

PCPG is committed to increasing access to its Intensive Study Program, and has funds available for tuition credit to support its mission of diversity, equity, and inclusivity. In an effort to encourage PCPG’s engagement with a more diverse community, the PCPG Board has established a tuition assistance fund for licensed therapists who identify as a person of color. These participants may be granted a tuition credit of up to a maximum of $500 per year to be determined by fund availability. 

We are dedicated to building a warm, rigorous, and creative community of psychoanalytic couple psychotherapists. You will be a part of the PCPG community upon completing the third year of study. PCPG offers ongoing, enriching educational events for its members.
