Psychoanalytic child therapists trained in the Toronto Child
Psychoanalytic Program are unique in the fact that they attempt to examine the inner
world of the child and to understand the child’s organized ways of thinking, feeling and reacting.
In the three years of training, leading to an advanced certificate in child psychotherapy:
Candidates will learn to integrate psychoanalytic theory as it has evolved for over a century, with the discoveries of contemporary observational research in infant and child development.
Candidates will come to understand how temperament and infant - caregiver relationships interact to affect personality development and relational patterns.
Candidates will learn about the common presenting problems in child psychotherapy, therapeutic action, and the therapeutic relationship.
The next 3-year program is beginning in September 2010.
