Psychoanalytic Association

Welcome to the Psychoanalytic Association (PA) of WCSPP.  The continued professional development of the members of WCSPP through various social and academic pursuits continues to be the focus of the Psychoanalytic Association. We are a network of clinicians from many backgrounds engaged in the field of psychoanalysis and welcome diverse perspectives from which to contemplate the ever-changing landscape of the field itself. 

Membership benefits include invitations to academic presentations of relevant psychoanalytic content such as: 

• Scientific Meetings
• Fireside Chats
• Psychoanalysis in Action
• The Annual Retreat
• PEP-Web – a comprehensive library of psychoanalytic journals and books
• Access to the WCSPP Listserv
• Directory of WCSPP Professionals

Finally, and most importantly, members of WCSPP have the opportunity to develop relationships and to share their work with each other, making WCSPP a special place in which to learn and to grow.
