And Shifts

From its early origins in the study of repressed memories and unconscious conflict to its more recent iterations as brief, relationship-focused treatments for increasingly diverse individuals, psychodynamic psychotherapy has adapted itself to the changing needs of its patients, practitioners, and the larger culture. At the same time, a clear tradition links the distinct phases of dynamic therapy. This chapter reviews seven articles that represent major themes and shifts in the work of dynamic therapy over the 125 years of its history. It presents the background for the genesis of each paper, the ways that the article responded to the context in which it arose, and the implications the article had for psychodynamic practice. Lastly, the chapter highlights how these landmark papers point to the continuing challenges and evolution of dynamic psychotherapy.

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop and trial a method of trainee evaluation of the supervision and training experience. Method: A questionnaire was developed and applied at the end of each of four 6-month clinical rotations. Results: The evaluation demonstrated areas of strength (punctuality and reliability, encouragement, educational value, clinical guidance) and weakness (journal club, clinical meetings). Many supervisors were not observing diagnostic or management interviews of trainees. Psychotherapy supervision received the highest ratings. Conclusions: Because of the privacy of supervision and the occasional nature of evaluations, reliability of scores cannot be demonstrated. However, within the context of a model of quality improvement, and supplemented by the education and supervision of supervisors, trainee evaluations can be useful in targeting specific areas of deficiency in training and supervision.

The Uk

The new Modernising Medical Careers agenda in the UK raises concerns about maintaining the standard of psychotherapy training (Mizen, 2007). In 1993 the Royal College of Psychiatrists made psychotherapy a mandatory rather than recommended work experience and there is now a competency portfolio outlining requirements for trainees. However, startling data have been revealed recently, showing that 91% of senior house officers did not meet the requirements of the Member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (MRCPsych) exam regarding psychotherapy training and 23% were not even aware of them (Agarwal et al, 2007). the quality and variability of psychotherapy experience in training have been surveyed in several papers (Podlesjka & Stern 2003; Carley & Mitchison 2006; Pretorius & Goldbeck 2006), and some solutions to practical problems with its provision have been proposed, for example, consultation from a consultant psychotherapist, utilising feedback from trainees, and focusing on practicalities and logistics at a local level (Wildgoose et al, 2002; Mitchison 2007). However, little has been said about trainees' own experiences of undertaking supervised practice in psychodynamic psychotherapy. This paper discusses trainees' outlook on psychotherapy training schemes.

Closed-circuit training is a unique setting developed by Habib Davanloo, the founder of intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy. The purpose of this setting is to achieve therapeutic benefits for the patient while providing valuable educational opportunities to the trainee. In this article, the authors present an intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy session that was conducted in a closed-circuit setting at McGill University Health Center. The primary goal of the article is to highlight several aspects of Davanloo's metapsychological principles and the application of their corresponding technical interventions. Another goal is to convey the trainee's reflection on his experience and perception of the closed-circuit training. The authors propose that closed-circuit training could be considered a potential alternative, or at least a complementary method, to the traditional settings of psychotherapy training and supervision.

Training in psychotherapy for junior registrars is often piecemeal and relegated to an after hours out-patient and supervision. We are fortunate in having had the opportunity for a whole-time psychotherapy placement at the Cassel Hospital, Ham Common, Richmond, itself an internationally renowned clinical and training centre devoted to psychotherapeutic treatment of in-patients and out-patients.

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Ein zentraler Faktor psychischer Gesundheit ist die Fähigkeit, Affekte wahrnehmen und adaptiv regulieren zu können. Die Verbesserung dieser Fähigkeit ist ein Ziel der psychodynamischen Psychotherapie. Psychodynamische Behandlungsmodelle, die sich aus der gut validierten Tradition der „short-term dynamic psychotherapy“ (STDP) ableiten und die heute unter dem Dach der International Experiential Dynamic Therapy Association (https://iedta.net/) versammelt sind, legen auf besondere Weise den Behandlungsfokus auf das emotionale Erleben. Ein derartiges psychodynamisches transdiagnostisches Behandlungsmodell ist die Affektphobietherapie (APT). Ziel der Arbeit (Fragestellung) Ziel der Übersicht ist es, den Leser mit dem Behandlungsrational und der Evidenz der APT vertraut zu machen. Material und Methoden Es werden die theoretischen Grundlagen der APT, typische Interventionen und Prozessinstrumente beschrieben. Die Evidenz des APT-Modells wird als narrative Übersicht der Studienlage dargestellt. Ergebnisse und Schlussfolgerung Die APT ist ein evidenzbasiertes psychodynamisches Behandlungsmodell. Das Rational ist schulenübergreifend. Ein Selbsthilfeprogramm auf der Basis der APT wird von Patienten gut aufgenommen. Manualisierung, Fertigkeitenorientierung und Prozessinstrumente machen es zu einem vielversprechenden Modell für die Aus- und Fortbildung.

Aims & method Learning psychotherapy can be difficult and stressful. We explore core trainees’ (n = 5) views on undertaking a psychodynamic psychotherapy training case using transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP), in an East London NHS Foundation Trust supervision group. We used framework analysis of focus group interviews to examine trainees’ concerns, their views about this experience and its impact on general psychiatric practice. Results Trainees described various concerns on starting: providing an effective intervention, insufficient experience and training-related pressures. However, they found that TFP addressed some of them and was helpful for learning psychodynamic psychotherapy. Difficulties around the countertransference remained at end-point. Trainees suggested that introductory teaching and learning through observation might be worthwhile. Clinical implications Trainees’ experience suggests that an evidence-based operationalised approach such as TFP can be integrated into the core psychiatry curriculum as a psychodynamic psychotherapy learning method. Trainees report benefits extending to other areas of their practice.
