FULL-DAY
GKCTPC Workshop on April 17, 2021
Join us on Zoom with Jonathan Shedler, PhD
*6 CEUs/CMEs included with registration fee and attendance*
The Efficacy of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy:
A lecture and clinical workshop
6 CEU/CMEs
Psychodynamic therapy is an evidence-based treatment. In the morning lecture-based on the internationally acclaimed article, The Efficacy of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy-Dr. Shedler will describe the seven core features of contemporary psychodynamic psychotherapy in clear, jargon-free language.
Dr. Shedler will discuss scientific evidence for the benefits of psychodynamic therapy and how it compares to other evidence-based treatments like CBT and antidepressant medication. Dr. Shedler will also describe how the active ingredients of all effective psychotherapies draw on (often unacknowledged) psychodynamic principles, such as enhancing self-knowledge, identifying problematic relationship patterns, and addressing these patterns in the "here and now" of the therapy relationship.
The afternoon will have a practical, hands-on clinical focus, building on concepts from the morning lecture. Participants will develop a deeper understanding of contemporary psychodynamic therapy through clinical case presentations by workshop participants with case discussion, "live" clinical supervision, and role playing to demonstrate clinical interventions. Dr. Shedler will emphasize the role of clinical case formulation as a road map to effective psychodynamic treatment.
