Cassandra Sweet, PhD, is a Training Analyst at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies (NIP), where she works with individual adults.

Prior to entering the psychoanalytic field, Cassandra had a career as a political economist, teaching, researching, and publishing on political and economic development. She received her PhD from Cambridge University and taught at universities in the United States and Latin America. Her research examined questions of institutions, development, innovation, and social change, and appeared in a range of academic journals and publications.

Her transition to psychoanalysis grew out of an interest in moving from questions about societies and institutions to questions about individual lives: how our histories, relationships, and social worlds shape who we become, the choices we make, and the ways we relate to ourselves and to others.

At NIP, Cassandra practices from a relational psychoanalytic perspective while drawing from a range of psychoanalytic traditions. She works with adults seeking to understand patterns in their relationships and emotional lives, as well as people navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, questions of identity, work, creativity, and relationships.
