Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis - About Us Psychoanalytic education has been offered in Denver since 1956. Until 1969 the Denver Training Center operated under the auspices of the Institute for Psychoanalysis in Chicago. The Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis was granted provisional status by the American Psychoanalytic Association in 1969 and was recognized as an Approved Institute in 1972. The Institute is a nonprofit corporation for which the Faculty serves as the Board of Trustees. It is affiliated with the Department of Psychiatry of the University of Colorado Denver, School of Medicine. The Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis is a community of psychoanalysts whose goals are to provide education in psychoanalytic thinking and treatment techniques, to advance scholarship and research, and to encourage application of psychoanalytic knowledge to related fields. The Institute is committed to providing a continuous learning environment. As such, it is expected that trainees, faculty and those involved in treatment, will participate in activities related to evaluation and research.
