Psychotherapy Orientation

  • New Center for Psychoanalysis (map)

The PCFA invites you to a Psychotherapy Orientation.  We know that starting psychotherapy work can be quite anxiety provoking.  Our goal is to help you feel more comfortable with the transition from inpatient to outpatient care and to address the fears and anxieties that new therapists commonly feel.

Through a mix of didactics and small-group activities, we'll be discussing the basics of assessing a patient for psychotherapy and how to practically do psychotherapy in the first few sessions.  We'll also talk about how to utilize supervision and will have a Q&A period so that you'll have time to ask any questions you might have. 

The orientation is aimed at trainees who will be starting with psychotherapy patients in the upcoming academic year, but all residents are welcome to attend!  

Because of COVID-19, the event may be moved to Zoom. Updates will be sent via e-mail and the Evite.
