Roster of practising UK members of the Institute of Psychoanalysis
 

UK Psychoanalysts

Members of the public considering psychoanalysis may want to consult this list to make sure that a practitioner describing themselves as a psychoanalyst is in fact qualified genuinely to practise this intensive form of treatment. Those named are properly entitled to hold themselves out to the public as psychoanalysts because of their Internationally recognised training.

The Institute of Psychoanalysis qualifies its members to belong to the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA) - a body with members on all five continents which safeguards professional standards and oversees the stages by which new societies are created.

Since the term Psychoanalyst is currently not yet protected in law anyone can, at present, claim to be a psychoanalyst.

If you have any doubts that a particular individual is qualified to represent themselves as a qualified psychoanalyst you may wish to consult the comprehensive listing of all qualified practising Institute trained psychoanalysts working currently in the UK.

List of Members of the British Psychoanalytical Society1



A listing, with contact details, of all currently practicing members of the British Psychoanalytical Society who have fulfilled the British Psychoanalytic Council's CPD requirements. (For details about this regulatory body see the website of the British Psychoanalytic Council [BPC])

 

Practising UK Psychoanalysts


1 The Institute lists exclude the names of those psychoanalysts trained by other organisations whose training and clinical experience is recognised formally by the IPA under their stringent equivalency procedures. To ascertain whether a particular individual not included in our list is a qualified psychoanalyst you should contact the professional organisation to which that individual belongs, or the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA).


A searchable listing of qualified and practising psychoanalysts, in particular areas of the UK, as well as psychoanalytical psychotherapists, can be found at the BPC Website from  here
