Center Application

The Center  has much to offer those who have an interest in psychoanalysis — whether professional or academic.  To help sustain and support the Center’s programs, we invite you to become a member.
 
The Center offers three levels of membership:  Regular, Sustaining, and Student

With a Regular Membership of $200, you will have access to local programs and workshops, as well as access to the Psychoanalytic Electronic Publishing or PEP-Web (www.pep-web.org) a searchable online database of psychoanalytic journals, books and videos. An individual subscription costs a one-time fee of $1,030 and $141 annually for access to the database. As part of your Center membership, you can enjoy unlimited access to this comprehensive online library. 
 
With a Sustaining Membership of $795, you show your commitment to sustain and support the financial stability of the Center and programming that enriches your practice and ensures continued opportunities for the psychoanalytic community.  As a Sustaining Member, you will receive all of the benefits of Regular Membership plus additional professional and financial leadership recognition.

Student Membership is offered for $75.  Students--undergraduate, graduate, interns, residents--from any academic discipline who are interested in learning more about psychoanalysis are eligible. Student members are eligible for all Center activities, including access to PEP-Web.
 
We continue to grow and diversify our membership through initiatives such as:

New programming

The Creative Assist Program

Community Seminars

Searching the Psyche through Cinema film series

Workshops

Our Spring 2017 Workshop featured Dr. Glen O. Gabbard and had a full house with overwhelming positive feedback from participants:

“This was an excellent workshop. Please have more of these in the future.”

“One of the best day-long workshops I ever participated in.”
“Outstanding presentation! Dr. Gabbard is an amazing presenter! His discussion involving therapeutic technique & interventions were quite helpful! And I appreciated his honesty & authenticity!”

The Center's main program, the Greater Kansas City Psychoanalytic Institute, which is already recruiting new applicants for 2018.
