The Michigan Psychoanalytic Foundation (MPF), a 501(c)3 organization, was established in 1987 to provide financial support for the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute (MPI), also a 501(c)3 organization.
MPI offers specialized training for mental health professionals in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. MPI’s advanced educational opportunities reach thousands of professionals not only in Southeastern Michigan, but also in other states and countries. The lives of thousands of people have been enhanced by the application of psychoanalytic principals in treatment, training, research and consultation. Our faculty of over 90 psychoanalysts and educators consult extensively on a volunteer basis at area universities, clinics, and agencies.
