PSY-5400D: Process of Psychotherapy III A Relational & Gestalt Perspective

This is an elective course designed to deepen the student’s skills in and understanding of relational and gestalt psychotherapy. The major focus will be in developing skills such as working in the present moment, moving toward the client’s affect, following the client’s agenda, sitting more comfortably with uncertainty (the therapist’s and client’s), recognizing and dealing sensitively and effectively with issues as they arise (including shame), exploring the relationship between therapist and client including transference & countertransference issues and understanding how context shapes our perspective and influences how we operate as therapists. In addition, the class is structured to aid students in gaining an increased awareness of and confidence in their own therapeutic style including recognizing their own limitations and how they are affecting the therapeutic work.
