Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy is known for its visually stunning unlockings and rapid transformations. But these breakthrough sessions are built upon a series of smaller, yet critical turning points between therapist and patient. This seminar will use lecture and videotaped clinical material to illustrate the key moments that fuel a strong working alliance and set the stage for a major unlocking of the unconscious. Special attention will be given to:
- Cultivating positive feelings in the therapeutic relationship
- Staying out of the parent’s shoes
- Speaking directly to the unconscious
- Sparking curiosity and hopefulness
- Prioritizing process over outcome
- Celebrating your own therapeutic style
