The PCC held its 2025 Holiday and Graduation Party at the Culver Hotel, a festive brunch and program on Sunday, December 14th. Thanks are due to Drs. Susan Mitchell and Shari Saperstein for organizing this beautiful space for us.

The party was great fun, attended by many members, candidates, students, and guests, accentuated by delicious food and marked by an atmosphere of warmth, connection, and shared commitment to our work.

Dr. Debbie Sandy, the chair of the PPP committee gave certificates of completion to our one year Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program graduates, congratulating Roxane Cohanim, Alison Picard, Garie Connell, Liesl Scalzitti, and Paul McLaughlin.

The heart of the event was the celebration of our newly graduated analysts. Our Dean, Dr. Jennifer Langham, presented certificates of completion to Natalie Hansen, Sarayana Sercarz, and Lisa Kersting. Each of these fine clinicians has completed the rigorous training at PCC. Their individual achievements are not just personal milestones but contributions to our field and to our institute. We welcome them formally as colleagues.

PCC President Dr. Eliane Hary, acknowledged recent publications and presentations by our members, Drs. Richard Tuch, Joseph Aguayo, Joshua Durban, and Annie Reiner.

The program culminated in a tribute honoring Dr. Jeanette Gadt for her many years of tireless service to our society.
