APA - OFFICIAL VIDEO - ISTDP with Patricia Coughlin

In Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy, Dr. Patricia Coughlin demonstrates and discusses this evidence-based approach. Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy, or ISTDP, is a brief psychotherapy originally developed by psychiatrist Habib Davanloo based on his examination of videos of therapy sessions. The goal of this therapy is to help clients move past their defenses to get at and process their true feelings. ISTDP has been successfully used for common presenting issues such as anxiety and depression as well for other issues, including some considered the realm of physical medicine such as pain, digestive issues, and neurological disorders. In this program, Dr. Coughlin works with a client who presents with a dilemma involving career choice. As the session proceeds, Dr. Coughlin identifies the defenses that are keeping the client from engaging with her life. This therapy demonstration is framed by an interview conducted by Dr. Jeffrey Magnavita in which Dr. Coughlin first provides a concise overview of ISTDP and, after the demonstration session, discusses key highlights that vividly illustrate this approach.
