Contemporary Psychoanalysis is a quarterly academic journal for the dissemination of psychoanalytic ideas.

For decades, the journal, which was founded in 1964, was the only one[citation needed] to publish articles from all schools of psychoanalysis, including interpersonal, relational, Freudian, Jungian, and Object Relations. It also publishes empirical research about human development and unconscious process.

The current editors-in-chief are Ruth Livingston and Susan Fabrick.

The journal has featured articles on interpersonal processes and intersubjectivity by authors such as Stephen Mitchell, Harold Searles,[1] Edgar Levenson, Benjamin Wolstein, Joyce McDougall, Philip Bromberg, Irwin Hoffman,[2] Jessica Benjamin, Silvano Arieti, Darlene Ehrenberg, Donnel Stern, and James Grotstein. It has published articles on psychoanalytic perspectives on prejudice due to race,[3] sexuality,[4] and religion.[5] There have been discussions of contemporary psychodynamic approaches to depression from the perspective of the patient and clinician.[6][7]

The journal is owned by the William Alanson White Institute and Society.
