A Multimedia/DVD Approach to Training Clinicians in Two Psychotherapy Modalities

Training therapists can be challenging when considering they must effectively develop a strong therapeutic alliance and obtain a clear assessment of patient problems, often in a limited number of sessions. This book seeks to present two different models of psychotherapy to address these needs. Psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral theories are combined to provide one model. A family psychology model is presented to provide a more systemic and global perspective. The training tool offered for implementing these models is a multimedia environment with DVD (Digital Versatile Disk) technology that combines multiple learning factors including pictures, text, video, and audio in an easy-to-use format.
