The Institute for the Psychoanalytic Study of Subjectivity (IPSS) was founded in 1987 as an organization of psychoanalytic clinicians and scholars committed to a program that offers training to those candidates whose interest in psychoanalysis, in addition to clinical practice, includes psychoanalytic scholarship and the development of psychoanalytic theory and research. Hence there is equal emphasis throughout the program on the acquisition of clinical psychoanalytic competence and the pursuit of scholarship. Candidates will acquire a background that includes classical psychoanalytic theory, ego psychology, object relations theory, and relational theory. In addition, a distinctive emphasis of the curriculum focuses on contemporary self-psychology, intersubjective theory, as well as infant research and attachment theory. IPSS founding faculty include George Atwood, Beatrice Beebe, Bernard Brandchaft, James Fosshage, Frank Lachmann and Robert Stolorow.
