Supervision

The training program at IPPNJ provides for each candidate to have in-depth supervision experience with senior practitioners, as specified below. These may not include one's personal analyst.

Supervision in Psychotherapy
For completion of the psychotherapy program, a candidate must have been in supervision with two different IPPNJ analysts for a minimum of 50 sessions each. Appointments should be 45 minutes to an hour long, and will ordinarily be scheduled weekly. These supervisory experiences may be either concurrent or consecutive. Although fees are to be negotiated between the supervisee and the supervising analyst, IPPNJ members are strongly encouraged to offer supervision to at least one candidate per year at a rate substantially below the average hourly fee in New Jersey. The candidate and supervisor have joint discretion about what is covered in their meetings; ordinarily, one patient will be discussed in depth, but other clients and circumstances in the candidate's practice may be covered as well.

Control Analysis
For completion of the training program in psychoanalysis, two additional periods of intensive supervision are required, one comprising a minimum of 50 meetings, the other of 100 meetings, to run concurrently or consecutively with two different IPPNJ analysts covering two different analytic cases. Successful completion of the three-year program (or its waiver) is a prerequisite for supervisory hours being counted as control work. In control work, most of the consultation between student and supervisor will concern an in-depth examination of one patient seen in analysis, at a minimum frequency of three times a week.
