The New Center for Psychoanalysis (NCP) is a nationally recognized psychoanalytic center with an Institute providing postgraduate education programs in psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. The Institute teaches an inclusive curriculum developed and taught by our distinguished faculty. There are programs specially focused on work with adults, and programs centered on children and adolescents. NCP is also a vibrant, multidisciplinary membership organization affiliated with both the American Psychoanalytic Association and the International Psychoanalytical Association. Many of our members are published authors and contribute articles to national psychoanalytic journals. NCP sponsors a low-fee psychoanalytic clinic, continuing education programs, a Film and Mind series, and presentations by noted speakers from the local, national, and international psychoanalytic communities. NCP was formed by the merger in 2005 of the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Institute and Society and the Southern California Psychoanalytic Society/Institute, who had a common beginning but split in the 1950s. We have a rich history and are actively creating a dynamic future.
