Child and Adolescent Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program

Child and Adolescent Pyschodynamic Psychotherapy Program

The child and adolescent psychodynamic psychotherapy program is a two year program offered to child psychiatrists and psychologists. The classes are held every Wednesday night from 7:30-9 PM. The program alternates between a small supervisory group one week and a didactic component on the alternate weeks.   Individual supervision may be available for eligible students.  The CAPP program requires child fellowship for psychiatrists and a PHD or PsyD and child training for psychologists. 

Our approach emphasizes normal development and its relation to developmental psychopathology, and includes psychodynamic perspectives on anxiety, behavior and mood disorders. Symptoms and resistances characteristic of each developmental epoch are described and illustrated with clinical material. Techniques for exploring transference and strategies for other psychodynamic interventions are discussed. Training in concurrent work with parents, central to successful child work, is discussed throughout the course of study.

The didactic program follows a developmental line starting with infancy and ending with the "odyssey years", ages twenty-three through thirty.  Reading and discussion of classical and contemporary papers will be interspersed with occasional special speakers and larger group case presentations. 

CAPP tuition will be $1,250 per component.  Students may enroll in one or both components.  For eligible students who elect individual clinical superivsion, a small additional fee will be charged.  This program does not qualify for the Columbia University Tuition Exemption Program.
