The Training in Contemporary Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
The Training in Contemporary Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (The TCPP) is a long established training under the aegis of the West Midlands Institute of Psychotherapy. It offers a training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy with adults to a standard which, if completed satisfactorily, will enable course graduates to apply for registration with the UKCP (CPJA section). Graduates of this course could expect to use this qualification as the basis for both independent practice or within the NHS.
This course in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, which commenced in 1990, leads to Associate Professional Membership of the West Midlands Institute of Psychotherapy and to registration with the CPJA Section of UKCP.
The requirements of the course include intensive personal therapy, which should start at least one year before and continue throughout the training, two supervised training cases, an experience of infant observation, a psychiatric placement and academic and clinical essays. There is a four-year programme of seminars, frequently conducted by members of the British Psychoanalytical Society. These take place in Birmingham at the Postgraduate Education Centre, City Hospital, on fifteen Saturdays a year. Work groups and case discussion groups are held on the same Saturdays.
The fees for 2009-2010 are £668 per term. Students meet their own fees for therapy and for individual supervision.
Applications for admission are now being considered.
