Institute for Modern Psychoanalysis of Philadelphia

Institute for Modern Psychoanalysis of Philadelphia Our school welcomes a diverse group of mental health practitioners & others interested in the personal and professional benefits of modern psychoanalysis.

The Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis was formed in 1971 with the encouragement of Dr. Hyman Spotnitz and other experienced senior analysts. It was founded as a sister organization of the Manhattan Center for Advanced Psychoanalytic Studies. Classes were initially held at the Combs College of Music in Germantown. In 1975, PSP became a charter member of the National Association for Accreditation in Psychoanalysis (NAAP). Since then, PSP has followed NAAP and ABAP (American Board for Accreditation in Psychoanalysis) requirements for admission, training, and graduation. From 1975 to 1997, classes were held at Drexel University in West Philadelphia. In 1997, the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis moved to its present location, a beautiful and historic building in Center City Philadelphia, 313 South Sixteenth Street. The building is also home to our clinical training facility, the Philadelphia Consultation Center. The School and its Clinic do not discriminate against persons on the basis of age, s*x, race, religion, s*xual preference or ethnic origin with respect to any of its educational and administrative policies and practices.
