YEAR TWO: PSYCHOANALYTIC THEORY AND<br />
RESEARCH ON INFANT DEVELOPMENT<br />
The second-year curriculum begins with the study of recent research in infant<br />
neurobiology focusing on the infant-parent dyad as a biologic entity. The curriculum<br />
then moves to psychoanalytic theories of infancy <strong>and</strong> the parent-infant<br />
relationship, including the foundational work of Freud, Klein,Winnicott,<br />
Mahler, Bowlby, <strong>and</strong> Bion, <strong>and</strong> the contemporary work of psychoanalytic theorists<br />
<strong>and</strong> researchers such as Beebe, Brazelton, Fonagy, Greenspan, Hofer,<br />
S<strong>and</strong>er, Shore, Steele, Stern,Tronick, <strong>and</strong>Trevarthan.Topics include: affect regulation,<br />
communication, assessment, attachment theory, separation-individuation<br />
theory, <strong>and</strong> the development of the self. In addition to the program<br />
faculty, numerous infant experts from the United States <strong>and</strong> Europe teach <strong>and</strong><br />
present their current thinking <strong>and</strong> research. Program participants also study<br />
the literature through an extensive bibliography.<br />
YEAR THREE: CLINICAL APPLICATION<br />
In the third year, program participants concentrate on clinical applications of<br />
infant observation <strong>and</strong> developmental theory <strong>and</strong> examine psychoanalytically oriented<br />
approaches to parent-infant therapy. Their clinical experiences vary according<br />
to their particular interests ranging from private practice based<br />
dyadic treatment to work in community-based programs <strong>for</strong> at-risk mothers<br />
<strong>and</strong> babies. As in the first year, ongoing presentations <strong>and</strong> discussions of clinical<br />
work are an essential part of learning. For graduation, students write a<br />
paper that integrates aspects of their three-year training <strong>and</strong> focuses on their<br />
clinical work.<br />
