Supervision of Student Research Psychoanalysts
Registered student research psychoanalysts may practice psychoanalysis under the
supervision of a graduate psychoanalyst who has a minimum of five years of postgraduate
clinical experience in psychoanalysis following completion of his or her psychoanalytic
education.
The supervising psychoanalyst must provide individual supervision of each student
for a minimum of one hour for each week per case of patient psychoanalysis for the
first year of supervision, and no less than 1 hour per case each month thereafter.
A minimum of 50 hours of supervision must be provided for each case for a total
of 150 hours of supervision during training. The supervising psychoanalyst may supervise
no more students than, in the judgment of the training institute, can be effectively supervised.
