I'm having trouble finding a solid answer to this question:

Question

Do psychoanalysts-to-be have to be psychoanalyzed by someone already practicing, or do they just analyze themselves as part of their training?

Answer 1

From the Internet:

It may take as many as four years of training in a psychoanalysis program, on top of the time required to get a doctoral degree, to become a psychoanalytic psychologist. Students in a psychoanalysis program attend classes, participate in supervised clinical sessions, and may even undergo a personal psychoanalysis of their own. Psychoanalytical training is meant to enhance a practicing psychologist?s therapeutic techniques.
