Assessment/Evaluation/Examination for the NYS Psychoanalytic License Qualifying Program

Assessment is seen as an ongoing dialogue between the candidate and his/her Advisors, faculty members, and supervisor. It focuses on professional competence, mastery of the theory and clinical practices of psychoanalysis, including diagnosis, and treatment as outlined in the curriculum, as well as the development of the capacity to work symbolically. It takes place within three basic venues: immediate “point-of-contact” between candidate and faculty including a minimum of one meeting per trimester with a candidate’s primary Advisor, written evaluations at the completion of each course, and the assessment of clinical competence expressed in the Clinical Thesis written in the final year of the program.
