Aims & Scope

Contemporary Psychoanalysis, a double blind peer-reviewed international quarterly, is the journal of the William Alanson White Institute and the William Alanson White Psychoanalytic Society.

We publish creative and original psychoanalytic writing from both new and experienced authors.

Although we very much encourage diverse perspectives, our primary focus is on interpersonal and relational psychoanalysis.

Our pages include a mix of the scholarly and the clinical, the heady and the playful.

We are committed to providing authors with thoughtful reviews and working one-on-one with them to craft articles that contribute substantively to the literature.
