Colloquium is psychodynamic psychotherapy.

The most effective psychotherapy is in its essence a conversation. It is an entering into a special kind of relationship to talk together and to speak with uncommon openness and honesty.

Colloquium is collaborative and career-long learning.

Our most transformational professional learning as clinicians is possible when we gather formally or informally for discussion. 

Colloquium is ongoing immersion in theory-to-practice.

The deepest work we can do as practitioners requires that we return to and draw upon the best of our clinical education and academic training.
