Our Mission 

The Consortium for Psychoanalytic Research, Inc. was established for the advancement and dissemination of knowledge and research in the field of psychology and psychoanalysis.

We are a group of Baltimore-Washington area organizations interested in promoting excellence in psychoanalytic research. The Consortium stresses the importance of investigating through innovative scientific research the power of psychodynamic treatments. Each year we sponsors a day-long Research Conference which features formal presentations by an outstanding researcher, discussions, and a workshop ("lab session") in which all participants have an opportunity to learn and use a research tool.

Our Research Conferences provide Continuing Education credit for physicians, psychologists and social workers.  Full information is available in the brochures of individual conferences. Members of health care professions other than these three are most cordially invited to attend; and they will receive a certificate attesting to their participation.
