Back to basics
The following year-long course aims to provide an immersive and rich learning experience for clinicians interested in deepening their knowledge of Davanloo’s ISTDP. Incorporating in-person and online modules, this training group will offer an advanced curriculum on the fundamental aspects of Davanloo’s methods, with a heavy emphasis on effective management of resistance.
Jonathan and Mikkel will offer didactic presentations and audiovisual demonstrations of actual case material to enhance integration. Further, each online module will include a Davanloo case study session, where the group will choose a single case in Dr. Davanloo’s oeuvre to review in-depth for the purpose of deepening our understanding of metapsychology as well as technique.
Every group participant will be supervised each meeting, both in-person and online. Jonathan and Mikkel will take turns leading these supervisions. In addition, members will be asked to take an active role in offering feedback to their peers, ensuring a high level of group activity throughout the supervision period.
Finally, in-person meetings will involve experiential learning components such as role play and other exercises to increase integration of techniques and enhance our own emotional flexibility. We think this will be a fun, challenging, and rich year of learning!
