Frieda Fromm-Reichman Award
This award is named after the prominent psychoanalyst. In the words of Anne Alonso, the award "honors a great woman for her extraordinary contribution to the application of psychoanalytic concepts in working with seriously disturbed patients, and who made an impact as a stellar supervisor and theoretician as well. I hope it will provide a place in Fielding for recognizing excellence in the general area of psychoanalytic psychotherapy, to support research and scholarship in psychodynamic pursuit, and to publicly applaud a graduating student's achievements." Students do not need to be members of the Psychoanalytic Track to be nominated.
