SIPPI’s training program offers a structured path into the core ideas of interpersonal psychoanalysis.
The curriculum combines theoretical depth with practical understanding of human relationships
and psychological development.
The 100 Concepts Program
At the heart of the SIPPI training is a structured curriculum built around 100 core psychoanalytic concepts.
These concepts form a practical map for understanding human emotions, relationships, and the inner life of the mind.
The program is designed to make psychoanalytic knowledge accessible, systematic, and applicable to real human interaction.
It combines professional method and personal practice.
Rather than approaching psychoanalysis only through long academic study, SIPPI organizes the field into a clear sequence
of key ideas that gradually deepen the practitioner’s understanding of psychological processes.
Why 100 Concepts?
The 100 Concepts are organized into five major theoretical traditions within psychoanalysis.
Together, they offer students a structured path through the historical development of psychoanalytic thinking —
from Freud to contemporary relational and diagnostic approaches.
Each category introduces a different intellectual tradition and offers a small selection of concepts as an entry point.
Training and Certification Path
