2026-27 Training Program Open House Q&A

You're Invited to SDPC's Virtual SDPC Open House!

Curious about psychoanalytic or psychodynamic training? Join us at the San Diego Psychoanalytic Center's Virtual Open House to explore two distinct training pathways designed to meet clinicians wherever they are in their professional journey.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program (2 Years)
A strong foundation in psychodynamic theory and technique, ideal for clinicians looking to deepen their everyday clinical work.

Psychoanalytic Training Program (5 Years)
A comprehensive path to becoming a psychoanalyst, guiding candidates through psychoanalytic theory, clinical technique, human development, and essential topics in the field, supported by close mentorship from experienced faculty.

At the Open House, you'll meet Kristin Whiteside, PhD, SDPC's Admissions Director, who will introduce you to the training program and answer your questions about the training experience. Come with your questions, whether you're considering formal training, exploring membership, or simply curious about a psychodynamic approach to clinical work.

Discover what makes SDPC San Diego's leading center for psychoanalytic and psychodynamic education.

Join us on Thursday, September 24, 2026, from 6 PM to 7:30 PM.
Admission is free.
*Zoom link will be provided upon registration.

We look forward to meeting you!
