The New Center for Psychoanalysis (NCP) is a nationally recognized Psychoanalytic Center with an Institute providing post-graduate education programs in psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. The Institute teaches an inclusive curriculum developed and taught by our distinguished faculty. There are programs specially focused on work with adults, and programs centered on children and adolescents.
NCP is also a vibrant, multidisciplinary membership organization affiliated with both the American Psychoanalytic Association and the International Psychoanalytical Association. Many of our members are published authors and contribute articles to the national psychoanalytic journals. NCP sponsors a low-fee psychoanalytic clinic, continuing education programs, a Film and Mind series, and presentations by noted speakers from the local, national and international psychoanalytic communities. We are also affiliated with the Los Angeles Child Development Center, Center for Reflective Communities and THRIVE Infant-Family Program.
NCP was formed by the merger in 2005 of the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Institute and Society and the Southern California Psychoanalytic Society/Institute, who had a common beginning but split in the 1950s. We have a rich history and are actively creating a dynamic future.
