Centro Psicoanalítico de Madrid

What Centro Psicoanalítico de Madrid does

Centro Psicoanalítico de Madrid (CPM) is a non-profit scientific association (Asociación Científica sin carácter lucrativo) founded in 1971 in Madrid, providing psychoanalytic education, professional accreditation pathways, and scholarly publishing throughout Spanish territory. Its core product is a three-year basic formation program in psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, delivered in Madrid and Murcia with 486 hours of theoretical study plus supervised clinical papers, accredited by FEAP (Federación Española de Asociaciones de Psicoterapeutas) and the International Federation of Psychoanalytic Societies (IFPS), and recognized by the Consejería de Sanidad de la Comunidad de Madrid.

The association operates an annual online journal (Revista del CPM, ISSN 1989-3566, since 2001) with a dedicated Factor PSI section for socio-cultural analysis, a library of psychoanalytic book reviews, and a recurring calendar of permanent seminars (including Lacan and intersubjective/relational tracks), national congresses, and jornadas (symposia). It also maintains a public, Spain-wide psychoanalyst directory connecting patients with affiliated practitioners. Technology use is administrative (CMS, Zoom delivery for seminars such as the March 2025 Lacan Seminar 7); there is no proprietary platform, software product, or AI component.

Revenue is generated through three channels disclosed publicly: annual training program fees (€2,950 per course year), recurring membership dues for associated members, and one-time event registration (e.g., congress fees ranging €90-€200 plus a €40 congress dinner, and €80 standalone workshops). The organization has roughly 8 employees, no external funding rounds, no parent company, and no M&A activity. Leadership is currently with President Reyes García Miura, succeeding Miguel Ángel González Torres, who took over after the death of Jorgelina Rodríguez O'Connor in May 2015. Customer segments are two: (i) graduates in Medicine or Psychology pursuing accredited psychoanalytic training, and (ii) individuals across Spain seeking psychoanalytic therapy through the public directory.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Asociación Psicoanalítica de Madrid: Madrid-based psychoanalytic association providing training and clinical services in the same city; closely overlaps CPM's geographic and functional focus on psychoanalytic formation.
• Sociedad Española de Psicoanálisis: Spanish psychoanalytic society offering training and clinical practice in Spain; directly comparable to CPM as a Spanish membership-based psychoanalytic training and credentialing body.
• British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC): UK-based registering and accrediting body for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, offering training programs and a public therapist directory - a close structural analog to CPM's combination of formation + directorio de psicoanalistas.
• Société Psychanalytique de Paris (SPP): Historic French psychoanalytic society providing clinical training, seminars, and a national registry of psychoanalysts; comparable as a long-established European psychoanalytic membership and training body.

Regional players

• Sociedad Española de Psicología Clínica: Spanish professional society for clinical psychologists - shares CPM's Spain-only footprint and clinical-mental-health training remit, but is an adjacent rather than direct competitor.

Others

• Federación Española de Asociaciones de Psicoterapeutas (FEAP): Spanish federation of psychotherapy associations that accredits CPM members and represents Spain at the EAP; comparison-relevant because CPM's value derives significantly from FEAP-credentialed status.

Broad incumbents

• International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA): Global umbrella body accrediting psychoanalytic training societies; comparable as the international parent of national psychoanalytic training associations like CPM.
• European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP): European umbrella for psychotherapy organizations; relevant as CPM's accreditation chain flows through FEAP to EAP, anchoring CPM's credentialing legitimacy at the European level.
• American Psychoanalytic Association (APsaA): Largest US psychoanalytic membership organization offering accredited training, publications, and a 'Find a Psychoanalyst' directory; provides a useful scale and operating-model benchmark for CPM's English-language analog.
• International Federation of Psychoanalytic Societies (IFPS): Federation of pluralist psychoanalytic societies that accredits CPM's formation programs; analogous organization at the international level.
