Internships, Post-Doctoral Fellowship, & Field Placements

in Psychology & Social Work

 The Hanna Perkins Center for Child Development offers the unique opportunity to complete an internship in psycho­analytic child psychology, social work, or a year of supervised postdoctoral training in psycho­analytic child psychology.  The program extends over 12 months, beginning each August.      

Since 1958, training in child and adolescent psychoanalysis has been available through the Hanna Perkins Center.  Although no prior commitment is required, a field placement student, intern, or fellow seeking a year of supervised clinical experience at Hanna Perkins should have an interest in psychoanalytic theory and practice and the possibility of pursuing further training toward qualification as a child/adolescent psychoanalyst.  Applicants should have previous experience in working with children and/or adolescents.  Some knowledge of and familiarity with psychoanalytic theory is preferred.

Each field placement student, intern, or fellow receives extensive clinical supervision, as much as one hour for each hour of clinical contact.  In addition to clinical work with children and parents, the experience includes observation in the Hanna Perkins School, attendance at selected clinical case conferences, and group meetings to discuss various aspects of psychoanalytic theory and its applications.
