Training Seminars
Family Therapy Seminar

The Family Therapy Seminar has a didactic portion which includes a review of the major theoretic orientations in family therapy with an emphasis in object relations, attachment and system's theory. Interventions and techniques utilized are derived from these theories. Transference and countertransference issues are discussed. Emphasis is placed on the role of projective identification in understanding clinical phenomena and in forming intervention strategies. Interns submit cases via live observation, videotaped sessions or case presentation. Live observation cases are viewed by the group via a one-way mirror. A faculty member specializing in this area of treatment then leads a discussion of the family dynamics observed. Interns are also encouraged to participate as co-therapists to enhance treatment outcomes and enrich the training experience. The seminar is presented on a weekly basis for two and one-half hours.
