RPT is a deeply experiential learning experience that fosters an embodied understanding of psychodynamic psychotherapy. The learning frame always begins with a case, which shifts the learning from the head to the body and heart.

Our program is rooted in a layered, mentorship model. Each year begins and concludes with an immersive retreat where you’ll deepen your practice within rich, intentional community.

The program continues with bi-weekly clinical consultation groups where you’ll expand your clinical mind in community and bi-monthly meetings for the entire cohort, where you’ll participate in case presentations and dialogue with Dr. Roy Barsness, our seasoned clinical team, and your colleagues.
