The Greater Kansas City/Topeka
Psychoanalytic Center
In 1965, the Psychoanalytic Study Group
of Kansas City was incorporated as a Missouri not-for-profit corporation - a
professional society for psychoanalysts, providing them with a forum for
discussion of theoretical and clinical issues, and a place to discuss practical
issues of concern and an organized way to pursue advocacy for the profession. In
the 1990s the name was changed to the Greater Kansas City Psychoanalytic Society
and we became a component society of the American
Psychoanalytic Association. The organization immediately proceeded to
establish its training program, The Greater Kansas City Psychoanalytic
Institute. The first candidates were admitted in 1996, and subsequent groups of
candidates have begun classes in 1998, 2000, 2002, and 2007. Under the guidelines of
the American Psychoanalytic Association, the Institute originally developed with
the sponsorship of the Topeka Institute for Psychoanalysis. Upon closing of the
Topeka Institute for Psychoanalysis in 2001, many former candidates and faculty
members joined Kansas City, accelerating the Institute's growth and
strengthening its teaching resources. In 2003, the Greater Kansas City
Psychoanalytic Institute received Provisional Institute status from the American
Psychoanalytic Association.
