Providing post-graduate training in the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy

Advancing skill and scholarship since 1969

We Educate

The Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis, founded in 1969, is organized for the purpose of providing psychoanalytic education for qualified applicants, to advance scholarship and research in the science of psychoanalysis, and to encourage application of psychoanalytic knowledge to relevant fields of study and practice.


Our History


We Listen

Psychoanalysis offers a specialized, effective, long-term approach for persistent emotional issues and life challenges, often proving beneficial when shorter-term therapies or medication haven't yielded sufficient change. By deeply exploring a your inner life, psychoanalysis fosters transformative growth, leading to more flexible, adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving—ultimately enhancing one's capacity to work and love.

What is psychoanalysis?

We Serve

The Denver Institute's volunteer faculty provide both exceptional training for clinicians and compassionate care for the community.

We offer low-fee psychoanalysis, referrals, and supervision for state licensure.

Our faculty are also actively engaged in service at local, state, and national organizations.

Community Involvement 



Post-Graduate Education

The Denver Institute offers post-graduate training in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, designed for mental health professionals seeking to deepen their clinical skills and theoretical understanding.

Our programs provide rigorous academic study, intensive case consultation, and a vibrant community of colleagues, fostering transformative professional growth and preparing clinicians for advanced practice.

Whether you're interested in refining your psychotherapeutic approach or pursuing full psychoanalytic training, the Denver Institute provides a supportive and challenging environment for your development.
