THE
WOMEN’S THERAPY CENTRE INSTITUTE,
established in
1981, offers innovative clinical training based
on contemporary psychoanalytic theory integrated with an
understanding that one’s social location contributes to
the psychic construction of the individual. The WTCI
holds a unique place at the intersection of the
psychoanalytic community, the feminist community, and the
public at large.
The
mission of The WTCI is:
• to train psychotherapists in feminist relational
psychotherapy. The Institute
offers a one-year post graduate program in the treatment
of eating and body image problems.
•
to articulate a feminist voice and an understanding of
gender in the evolving dialogue of contemporary
psychoanalytic theory. The faculty
have published extensively on feminist psychoanalytic
theory and practice. They have lectured nationally and
internationally and are known to feminist organizations
throughout the world.
•
to sponsor educational programs for practitioners and the
general public. The Institute
sponsors an annual lecture series with feminist scholars
and clinicians, workshops and short term groups on issues
in women’s psychology, a biennial Speak-Out, a speakers’
bureau, a psychotherapy referral service, and in-service
training to schools, institutes, hospitals, agencies, and
professional organizations.
