Training cost calculator

An estimate of what psychoanalytic training costs over its full length. Change any of the boxes and the totals update as you type. The starting numbers are placeholders, not a quote from any institute.

Analysis

Analysis, per sessionTry different numbers; the starting figure isn't indicative of anythinga$

Weeks per year (used throughout)44 assumes analyst, supervisors and patients/supervisees each take 4 weeks off, not overlappingbweeks

Annual cost of analysisAssuming 4 sessions a weekc = a × b × 4$22,000

Insurance reimbursement, per yearOut-of-network benefits can be substantial if you have themd$

Annual cost, net of insurancee = c − d$22,000

Years 1–4: classes

Annual costs other than analysis and supervisionn = k + l + m$400

Control case supervision

Supervision, per sessionCurrent typical cost, but confirm. Typically in the final 3–5 yearso$

Annual cost per control caseCase 1 usually runs 3+ years; case 2, 1+ yearsp = o × b$3,300

Totals

Total length of trainingTypical — some finish a little faster; others take longerqyears

Total years of control case supervisionTiming varies—years

Years 1–4 (classes)r = 4 × (e + j)$108,400

Years 5 and beyond (after classes)s = (q − 4) × (e + n)$67,200

Control case supervisiont = years × p$13,200

Total costu = r + s + t$188,800

Average annual costv = u ÷ q$26,971

This is a tool, and not a representation about any aspect of the costs associated with analytic training at any institute. I make no representations as to the accuracy or functionality of this tool. Use it at your own risk.
