Harnessing power of transference and countertransference in CBT
20th Euro Congress on Psychiatrists and Psychologists
August 07-08, 2017 | Rome, Italy
Diana Kljenak
University of Toronto, Canada
Keynote: J Psychiatry
Abstract:
Cognitive Behavior therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based therapy used to effectively treat a number of mental health disorders. Traditionally, CBT has been thought of as a treatment modality that is technique-based and not as concerned with the therapeutic relationship as other forms of psychotherapy. Basic CBT model will be reviewed. Participants will learn how transference and countertransference can be understood through a CBT lens. Case examples will be used to illustrate how cognitive and behavioral techniques could be effectively used to recognize and manage countertransference. Participants will be able to reflect on the use of these techniques in their own practice regardless of their preferred psychotherapeutic modality.
