The Adult Psychoanalysis Fellowship Program is a one-year program designed for individuals who have a significant interest in psychoanalysis as a body of knowledge and as a framework with which to understand and carry out therapeutic efforts.  Intended for advanced graduate students and residents as well as recent graduates in Psychiatry, Psychology and Social Work, the program at its core consists of monthly seminars presented by psychoanalysts on clinically-related topics.  Fellows are also welcome to attend Forums on Psychoanalysis and other conferences offered by the Institute and Society.

The Program Will Include:

▪ Special lectures, seminars and case conferences arranged for Fellows and held monthly on Saturday
   mornings for an hour-and-a-half throughout the academic year.

▪ An Institute or Society member assigned to each Fellow to meet individually and as a group to discuss
   therapeutic issues, papers, research and other relevant topics.

▪ Invitations to the scientific meetings held by the Baltimore Washington Society for Psychoanalysis.

▪ Waiver of registration fees for local conferences sponsored by the Baltimore Washington Institute for
   Psychoanalysis and the Baltimore Washington Society for Psychoanalysis.

▪ A welcoming luncheon held for Fellows to include the Director of the Institute, the President of the Society, the
   Chair of the Education Committee and members of the Fellowship Committee.
