Submission Guidelines for Free Associations from WCSPP as of October 2022
All current members of the Westchester Center for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis are eligible to submit blog posts.
Blog posts should be written towards a “lay audience” (no jargon!) with some professional or personal interest in the field of psychoanalysis, couples therapy, conducting supervision, child, adolescent and parenting issues, as well as for a more general audience geared toward practicing clinicians.
All content submitted to the blog must be original, composed solely by the writer(s), and previously unpublished.
Submissions must be 1,000 words or less, and include a proposed title and brief professional bio.
References must be in APA style.
To protect patient confidentiality, clinical material must be sufficiently disguised or written permission from patient must be given.
The editors select blog submissions based on topicality, current need, appropriateness, and quality of writing. Writers may be asked to revise and/or revisit material for further consideration. Submissions that do not meet editorial standards may not be accepted for publication.
Blog editors reserve the right to change post titles and edit content at their discretion, without final approval by writers unless specifically requested.
All blog posts must be approved by WCSPP Executive Directors before posting.
By submitting to the blog, writers agree to adhere to these submission guidelines.
To submit a blog post, please email the Blog Editors: Leslie Phillips- lphillipslcsw@gmail.com or Coren Schwartz- corensz@gmail.com
