This fall on Saturday and Sunday September 19th and 20th, I will be offering a two day ISTDP foundations training. This training is appropriate for therapists who are relatively new to ISTDP as I will be covering the building blocks of ISTDP theory and technique. I teach using Powerpoint slides along with videotapes of my work that demonstrate how theory directly informs the clinical application of ISTDP. The ability to see the work on videotape makes for a powerful learning experience.
The training will be from 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. each day with an hour break for lunch. It will take place in my house in Hollywood. The cost for the training is $350.
I think that this recent email from a psychiatry resident speaks to what I hope you will gain from the training:
“I really enjoyed your lecture series on ISTDP. I feel those have been the most influential lectures of my training to date. A couple of my patients…have been very responsive to my introduction of more of an ISTDP approach to our therapy and have said that we have now “hit the nail on the head!” They seem more enthusiastic about the therapy, relate well to this model, and I am finding therapy more engaging and enjoyable…I think you have made a very significant impact on our training and lives.”
