Training and education for therapists and clinicians in psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
Psychoanalytic Training And Continuing Education
NPI is a multi-faceted and vibrant psychoanalytic community dedicated to the study and practice of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
Our commitment is to present innovative, compelling and unique opportunities to experience psychoanalytic thinking and application via training, ongoing continuing education, consultation groups, special seminars and conferences. We offer classes and events in greater South Orange County.
Rigorous & Comprehensive Training in Psychoanalysis & Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
The practice of psychotherapy is a rewarding, but very demanding, occupation. Our patients continually challenge ways of thinking and practicing, which provides endless opportunities for growth and development, but can also leave the practitioner feeling unsure how best to work with the people who have turned to him or her for help. In some cases the work can feel isolating.
