For Patients

The Columbia Psychoanalytic Center is not only a place for learning and scholarship. It is also a treatment Center open to the entire community, offering psychoanalytic treatment in New York City for both adults and children. 

 

The psychoanalyses conducted through our Center are performed by licensed psychologists and psychiatrists who have completed their specialty training and have returned to Columbia for additional postdoctoral training in psychoanalysis. They represent a select, accomplished group of clinicians. Their clinical work is thoroughly supervised by our senior faculty. Because we are a training institution,we can offer high quality treatment on a very reasonable sliding scale. At Columbia, psychoanalysis consists of four sessions per week, generally ongoing over at least two years, though some treatments expecially for young adults, children and teens may be of shorter duration.

 

If you're interested in whether psychoanalysis may be the right treatment for you, please read on.   If you would like to explore beginning your own treatment, we encourage you to arrange for a consultation by applying for treatment or by either calling Sabrina Cherry, M.D., Director of our Psychoanalytic Clinic or Sarah Hartman, M.D. , Associate Director of the Clinic. 646-774-8625.

 

PLEASE NOTE: The Clinic is closed until Labor Day.  Applications may be mailed or faxed, but we will not get back to you until after Labor Day.
