BRIEF PSYCHODYNAMIC THERAPY AS AN INTEGRATED CLINICAL APPROACH

Presenter: Ari Badaines

As there has been a significant increase in demand for mental health services and a requirement for economical ‘less is more treatment approaches’, skills in brief, focused therapies are becoming necessary. With Psychodynamic Therapy noted for its emphasis on the unconscious, transferences, childhood patterns, and defense mechanisms, one might wonder how it could be adapted to be an effective brief therapy. Yet, Brief Psychodynamic Therapy (TLDP) is proving to be an important adjunct to any integrated practitioner’s armory. This workshop is an opportunity to understand and enjoy its historical and theoretical development, methods, and applications.

Learning Objectives:

a. Be able to differentiate between long and brief psychodynamic therapy.

b. Know some of the historical development and current approaches to TLDP.

c. Discern which clients are appropriate or inappropriate for TLDP.

d. Be clear about the role and skills of the TLDP.

e. Understand the meaning and usefulness of Transference and Countertransference.

f. Develop the capability to stay focused on goals and modify the therapeutic approach so as to provide competent brevity.

g. Develop a familiarity of the three phases of the TLDP process.

This event counts towards 7 hours of category A CPD.
