Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Training Program
To: Students and Advisors
From: Edward P. Kaufman, Director, and Judith Feigon Schiffman, Asst. Director
Subject: Orientation to Certification Requirements for Diagnostic Evaluations and
Treatment Cases.
A. Diagnostic Evaluation
General Considerations:
Twelve (12) diagnostic evaluations are required of each student during the three years of the
program, under supervision of CAPPT program faculty. It is recommended that students begin
on diagnostics after the completion of first quarter of classes. Students can receive credit for up
to two diagnostic evaluations by fulfilling the requirements for the two year infant observation
sequence.
Diagnostic studies should include an process interview by the student with the child or
adolescent in addition to the diagnostic formulation. Student should have experience with a range
of ages, male and female,.
Age & Sex: Pre-school child, latency child, adolescent, parent. Both sexes should be
represented.
Some Examples of Types of Disturbances
Psychotic disorder, character disorder, organic brain disorder, neurotic disorder,
psychophysiological disorder.
Your first diagnostic evaluation and one diagnostic during each successive year should be with
your assigned advisor. Supervision for successive diagnostic evaluations should be arranged
between you and a faculty member of your choice. If you wish, you can contact us for
information regarding faculty members who have time for supervision. To provide continuity in
learning after the first supervised diagnostic evaluation with your advisor, students should
thereafter do three successive diagnostic with the same supervisor.
A diagnostic interview with the child, when the child is the patient, must be included in the
history. On the rare occasion when this is not possible, omission must be explained.
Certification Requirements

Procedures For Completing Diagnostic Evaluations:
1. All diagnostic evaluations should be current or very recent cases at the time they are
presented to the supervisor. Exceptions need to be justified. Students may call the
supervisors directly for their preference regarding the point in the evaluation process
when a case should first be brought in for discussion.
2. The diagnostic report need not be written before the supervisory session. The case
material should be presented verbally and diagnostic impressions discussed with the
supervisor.
3. Following the supervisory session or sessions, or at a point agreed upon with the
supervisor, the material is written up and submitted to the supervisor. The enclosed
“Suggested Outline for Diagnostic Evaluations” should be used as a guide. A
discussion and assessment of the write-up is part of the supervisory process.
4. Upon completion of the supervisory process with each supervisor, the student should
submit the diagnostic cards and the supervisory report to the CAPPT office to be
included in their file. The diagnostic cards are to be filled out by the student, and the
supervisory report be completed by the student and the supervisor.
5. Please try to limit your diagnostic reports to no more than five pages (single space).
The CAPPT office does not generally require copies of the diagnostic reports.
(However, diagnostic reports should be submitted to the CAPPT office for those
cases that are or will be in supervised treatment).
Timetable for Supervised Diagnostic Cases:
Completed Diagnostic Evaluations
By the end of the first year 1-3 cases
By the end of the second year 4-7 cases
By the end of the third year 8-12 cases

B. Treatment Cases
General Information
After the first quarter , you should begin to look for a case for diagnostic evaluation. A
diagnostic evaluation including the interview with the child should be done on a case being
considered for supervised treatment. If this case may be suitable for a treatment case , with the
supervisors agreement, the psychotherapy may begin.. credit will be given for and submit it as a
diagnostic evaluation in order that it may be screened and accepted as a supervised case by the
end of the first quarter. Three treatment cases with the faculty supervision are required during
the course of the Program.
Procedure for Supervised Treatment Cases
After having determined that you have a case that may potentially become a supervised case,
make arrangements for supervision with a treatment case supervisor, unless the diagnostic
supervisor will be the treatment supervisor. You will then complete a diagnostic evaluation with
your diagnostic supervisor. You are free to contact any faculty member or to check with us if you
have any questions regarding supervisions availability.
Frequency of supervision is determined between you and the supervisor based on needs of the
student and the needs of the case. The frequency, of course, may change as the case progresses.
Following the completion of each case, a treatment summary which has been approved by the
supervisor, and the supervisor's report of the clinical work is sent to the CAPPT office for
inclusion in your file.
Certification Requirements

Criteria for Case Selection
Three treatment cases are required with faculty supervision These are to be children, and/or
adolescents. of different age ranges. Both sexes are to be represented. The child and adolescent
cases should be three of the following four diagnostic categories: 1) psychotic, pre-psychotic, or
borderline; 2) neurotic; 3) character disorder, and 4) psychophysiological disorder. Exceptions
need to be discussed with the student’s advisor.
Frequency of Treatment
It is suggested that one child case be seen intensively at a frequency of two or more times a
week; the others should be seen at least once a week.
Work with Parents
Each student is expected to work with the parent or parents of at least one of the child cases. In
the work with parents, the goal will be to learn about the child and the environment and to
provide the parent with guidance around child-management problems.
Students and their supervisors are urged to b explicit in planning the concurrent contact with
and/or therapy of the parents.
Third Treatment Case
The kind of case chosen as a third treatment case is elective. The student may choose to treat a
child or adolescent of any age, an older adolescent under 21 years of age, or a suitable parent.
The Student Evaluation Committee may recommend that this third case be of a particular kind if
it seems indicated for the student’s learning.
If a parent case is chosen as the third case, the presenting request of the parent should be the
problems with the child or a disturbed parent-child relationship. Cases of marital counseling,
husband-wife treatment, or family therapy are not acceptable. The frequency of a parent case is
to be at least once a week.
Certification Requirements

Additional Requirements
One cases to be carried in supervision for a minimum of two years , one case for at least one
year, and one case for a minimum nine months.
Timetable for the Beginning of Supervised Treatment Cases
By the end of the first year ---------------------------------------------- 1 case
By the end of the second year ---------------------------------------------- 2 cases
By the end of the third year ---------------------------------------------- 3 cases
C. Supervision
The fee for supervision is no longer part of the tuition charged by the Institute for educational
programs. Students will pay $20 per session for supervision. directly to the supervisors.
Financial arrangements regarding payment are to be worked out with the supervisors.,
After the student has fulfilled the program’s time requirements for a supervised case, it is
recommended that some form of periodic consultation continue until the end of the treatment. A
specific plan to that effect can be decided on by the student and supervisor before formal
supervision ends.
D. Tuition and Fees
For tuition and fees consult the Institutes' website www.chicagoanalysis.org.
E. Scholarships
Limited scholarships are available.
Contact the program director for details regarding application for these scholarships
Certification Requirements

F. Attendance
It is the policy of the Institute, as determined by the Education Council, that the following
minimal requirements must be completed in order to be granted credit for any course:
1. The Student must attend all classes, with only one unexcused absence permitted.
Excused absences are obtained only from the program director, not from the instructor.
2. The Student must complete the evaluation form at the end of the course
REITERATION OF CRITERIA FOR CAPPT DIAGNOSTIC
AND TREATMENT CASES
:
1. Twelve written diagnostic studies must be completed for graduation. The
diagnostics must be current in-progress diagnostics. Supervision should be
arranged either prior to the start of the diagnostic evaluation or no later than the
second meeting with the patient or his/her family. This criteria enables the
student and the supervisor to observe the unfolding of the diagnostic process as
leading to the formulation of a diagnosis of the patient and his/her situation.
2. No diagnostics may be formulated with supervision from a retrospective situation;
i.e., the student has previously met with the family and child or adolescent prior to
receiving CAPPT supervision and is utilizing the circumstance to make an
academic diagnosis from this review. These “retrospective diagnostic evaluation
will not be given credit toward graduation.
3. Only cases that have an in-process diagnosis will be eligible for credit as a
supervised treatment case. Arrangements for supervision of the treatment must be
established prior to the completion of the diagnostic evaluation. The treatment
supervisor may be someone who was not involved in the diagnostic process.
4. In order to proceed with a third treatment case, permission must be received from
the supervisors of the first two cases and in addition, the request must be made
from the student to his advisor who, in turn, will submit this request along with
the supervisory recommendations to the Evaluation Committee for the student to
receive permission for progression for this third treatment case.
5. A student may do no more than three diagnostics with any given supervisor with
the exception of the four annual required diagnostics to be done with the student’s
advisor. The student may only do one treatment case with each given supervisor.
6. For further details, see the Memo to New Students regarding an “Orientation to
Certification Requirements for Diagnostic Evaluations and Treatment Cases.”

Procedure for Student Evaluation and Progression
The Evaluation Committee consists of faculty clinical supervisors. It is expected that the
students will consult with their advisors with any questions or problems they may have regarding
the program. The role of the advisor is to help you progress through the program.
A. All students are expected to start a first supervised treatment case and to
complete a minimum of 3 diagnostic evaluations by the beginning of the
second year of the program..
B. Students may begin a second supervised treatment case at any time they feel
ready with the approval from the first case supervisor.
C. Prior to beginning a third supervised treatment case, students must submit a
“Student Request Evaluation” form. This notification will set into motion an
evaluation by the Evaluation Committee. The advisor of the student is
responsible for discussing the Committee’s impressions and recommendations
regarding starting a third case.
D. Each treatment case must have a clinical case summary written by the student
and approved by the supervisor . An written evaluation from the three case
supervisors required for graduation.
Page 8
E. Twelve supervised written diagnostic evaluations are required in order to
complete the program. The following are the minimal yearly requirements for the
completion of diagnostic evaluations:
3 diagnostic evaluations by the end of the first year.
7 diagnostic evaluations by the end of the second year.
12 diagnostic evaluations by the end of the third year..
F. Any student may request an evaluation of his/her performance at any other time
than those stated above by filling out a “Student Request for Evaluation” form.
Also, any faculty member may for good reason request that a specific student be
evaluated at other than the above stated times.
G. The Evaluation Committee’s routine decisions will not be reviewed by the
faculty. However, in cases when supervision or probation are recommended, or
when decisions involving major changes in the status of the student are made,
these will be taken to the faculty for full discussion and approval.
H Forms for some of the above procedures are in this manual and also are
available in the CAPPT office.

Diagnostic Evaluation
(Outline for Loose Guidance only)
Reason for Referral and Identifying Information:
Johnny is an x year old Caucasian boy who was referred for evaluation by his parents on the
advice of his school social worker. Johnny’s father is an electrician and his mother a nurse. He
has two brothers, Jimmy, age x, and Bill, age y. Johnny has come to the attention of the school
social worker because of academic/social/behavioral difficulties in his fourth grade classroom.
The parents were surprised by the recommendation, as they had not been aware of problems at
home. (So: name, age, family structure, reason, and source referral. Obviously, many children
come from much less structured backgrounds- just try to briefly alert the reader to the current
situation.)
History of Presenting Problem: Recent (last 6 months? Whatever makes sense) history of
referral symptoms as seen by parents and reported to them by whoever else is concerned.
Social and Developmental History: Say something that alerts the reader to the social and
educational and occupational background of the parents. Married? Divorced? Re-married? Life
events that would have affected the parents’ capacity and/or the child’s course of development –
e.g. frequent moves, stressors on the parents, etc. Developmental history: planned/unplanned
pregnancy? Difficulties during pregnancy? Delivery? Early feeding and sleeping? Primary
caretaker? Age and ease of weaning to cup or bottle? Thumb-sucking? Pacifiers? Motor and
speech milestones within normal range or not? Difficulties around toilet training or not? Early
medical problems or healthy? Reaction to early separations for childcare or pre-school?
Reactions to arrival of sibs? Success or not of social and academic processes over the course of
the child’s school career to date.
Miscellaneous: Other background info. That may not fit anywhere else but is central to your
case.
Interview with Parents: The parents were seen for x number of sessions during the course of
the diagnostic evaluation. Say something about how they present –co-operative? Hostile?
Angry? Desperate? Informed? Say something about how they seemed to get along with each
other, or not. What was their attitude toward their child and toward the referrer? Is this their
first encounter with someone in mental health, or have they been the rounds? If they’ve been the
rounds, what’s the history or satisfaction/frustration with previous attempts at help? How
easy/difficult was it to get them there for first appointment? If divorce, who did you see and
why? Separately or together? Keep this to a few paragraphs, reporting facts as you gathered
them, and impressions as you experienced them. How did you feel with parents? Defensive?
Connected? Distanced? Eager to help? Put off? Suspicious? Trusting?
Sessions with Child: Describe unfolding of first 3-4 sessions, 1-2 paragraphs per session. How
did the child separate from the caregiver in the waiting room? How did the child engage or not
with you and/or the toys in the first session? Describe child’s level of anxiety, cooperativeness,
verbal engagement, etc. How did this evolve over three or four sessions.
Page 10
Use these paragraphs to give a flavor of what it was like to be in the room with the child over the
course of these sessions. No theory required here - just observations, a few direct quotes if that
will help give a flavor, plus a sense of the child’s emotional experience and your own with the
child. These paragraphs should allow the reader to join you in your office and have some sense
of what it feels like to be with this child.
Formulation: Using whatever theoretical model makes sense to you or your supervisor, put the
presenting symptom in some developmental context. Relate this both to whatever environmental
contributions you think may have been active, as well as whatever intrapsychic conflicts may not
have been mastered. For example, do you see the child’s presenting social or behavioral
difficulties as expressive of primary attachment problems? Failure to manage sibling rivalry or
Oedipal problems? Failure of self-object functioning? Compounding of some or all of the
above? A paragraph or two should suffice – just be sure to refer both to the presenting problems,
social and/or developmental history, and the child’s capacities to modulate and manage impulses
and feelings. Include also whatever strengths have allowed the child to manage as well as he has
- e.g., defenses, capacity for symbolic play, capacity for verbal language, and capacity to elicit
possible feelings and help in parents, teachers, other relevant caregivers.
Recommendations: Is treatment called for? Frequency? Parental involvement?
