Upcoming Courses & Events
This presentation will provide an introduction and overview of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP).
From November 8, 2024 - May 9, 2025
By delving into clinical aspects of cultural, social, and political upheaval, this course will create space for clinicians to process, grapple, and play with experiences of and responses to the ever-shifting reality in which we and our patients find ourselves. In a way unique to psychoanalysis, this course explores the nuances of these phenomena while also exploring potential limits to what psychoanalysis can offer and what interdisciplinary ideas can enhance the breadth and depth of our thinking.
Who gets to be a child? How does race play a role in how we view who a child is? Join us in thinking about these questions and more in a review of "The role of racism in who gets to be a child: Clinical and cultural reflections" with author David Cushman, Psy.D.

Who Is NCSPP?
Theresa Tan, Psy.D. My name is Theresa Tan, and I am an early career psychologist, working both in-person in Oakland and virtually. In my short time in private practice, I am discovering new ways of being with child and adult patients that I couldn’t quite do in training. I’m also confirming my passions that were previously ignited. |
