One-Year Program: Modern Psychoanalytic Studies
Meets for six sessions | Participants may enter at any point in the sequence because courses are rotated regularly.
ACAP’s One Year Program will be offered again in Fall 2023-Spring 2024.
The One Year Program consists of four courses over one year and provides an opportunity for clinical practitioners and professionals in various disciplines to enhance their clinical skills by introducing them to innovative, Modern Psychoanalytic principles, theories, and techniques. Students learn effective ways to design interventions to reverse maladaptive emotional and behavioral patterns, and quickly begin to master new, practical clinical skills that can profoundly impact work with clients by promoting a collaborative, self-defining approach to growth. ACAP’s methods for working in challenging situations can make the difference between burnout and career satisfaction through covering basic concepts in modern psychoanalysis.

Mondays, 6:00 -7:30pm ET on 11/4, 11, 18, 25, and 12/9, 16/2024
This course meets on six dates and will introduce students to the unique way that a clinician listens as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist. By allowing clients to introduce topics without interference, the clinician listens to the client’s story, mode of communication and the story that is not being told. The untold story is analyzed silently as the unconscious communication is reported in dreams, projections, defense mechanisms, resistances and transference communications. After listening attentively, the clinician intervenes with questions, not interpretations, in order to strengthen the ego. 10 NBCC approved CE hours for counselors, marriage & family therapists & art therapists. 10.5 NJSNA approved CE’s for nurses #P297-5/21-24. 9 NASW-NJ approved CEUs for social workers #09232022-331.
