The Manhattan Institute was one of the first psychoanalytic institutes in New York to develop specialized training in working with adults traumatized in childhood.

The Trauma Treatment Center (TTC), formerly the Center for the Study of Incest and Abuse, has been a division of Manhattan Institute since 1989.

TRAINING

Through its educational programs, the TTC serves the training needs of the greater professional community. Comprehensive coursework and continuing education programs reflect the Center's dedication to a clinical approach that integrates a contemporary psychoanalytic approach with recent advances in the field of traumatology. Regularly-scheduled seminars and case conferences offer support and continuity to therapists engaged in this challenging work. For more information on training opportunities in the TTC call the Manhattan Institute at (212) 422-1221.

CLINICAL REFERRAL SERVICE

Referrals to TTC staff therapists are available to adults with trauma histories who are seeking treatment from experienced, psychoanalytically-trained clinicians who specialize in treating physical, sexual, and emotional trauma. Therapeutic services are offered on a sliding-fee scale and are conducted in the private offices of participating therapists, with locations throughout the metropolitan New York City area. Referrals also are accepted from agencies and institutions.

In addition to those services listed above, lectures and seminars on various topics related to trauma may be arranged through the TTC.
