Celebrating 30 years of the Rhode Island Association for Psychoanalytic Psychologies!

Founded in 1993 in order to build a local gathering place for a community whose members shared interest in psychoanalysis, the Rhode Island Association for Psychoanalytic Psychologies (RIAPP) has provided a forum for scholarly and clinical exchange for 30 years. To that end, our primary focus has been psychoanalytic continuing education for local mental health professionals through our yearly lecture series and spring and fall conferences. Our programming is based on the recognition of the diversity present in contemporary psychoanalysis.  RIAPP’s philosophy encourages a comparative orientation that affords an integrative and pluralistic approach.
