Description

Are you interested in working with people who struggle with mental health issues and day-to-day challenges? Do you want to learn how to become a psychodynamic psychotherapist and learn new techniques that you can use in your work?

Then I would like to welcome you to this course!


In this comprehensive course you will take 36 informative lectures which you can listen to at home or on the way to work!

You will be guided with the step-by-step approach in becoming a therapist or a coach who specialises in using a psychodynamic approach in your work.


Here you will learn for example:


- several defence mechanisms that people use in everyday life to block out their unwanted thoughts and memories, for example through 'denial', 'repression' and 'projection'

- various psychodynamic techniques  created by Sigmund Freud and his followers and which are used as a part of the psychoanalysis process - e.g. 'free association', 'symbolism' and 'dream interpretation'

- how to provide ethical and positive environment for your client

- how to conduct an assessment session

- how to write a consent and get permission from your client about the treatment

- how many sessions you need to provide to your clients and how often


As a bonus material at the end of this course, you will have access to 3 SPECIAL BONUS LECTURES on:

-  ‘additional techniques in psychotherapy’

- ‘stress and anger management’

- ‘acceptance and commitment therapy’ (which has become increasingly popular!)


P.S. This course is now fully accredited by the IAOTH - International Association of Therapists!

P.P.S. At the end of the course you will see the instructions on how to obtain your certificate of completion


See you in my class! ;)

The instructor goes deep into the subject of the unconscious, and she explains it very well. There were some things I knew that I needed a refresher on, while there were also things that were new to me. I’m really enjoying this course.

Thank you very much for all your OUTSTANDING work! I started as a person with interest in psychology at few years before, and was taking your courses, now I happy to say that I became a university student here, in Canada that provides complimentary access to all udemy courses as a part of the learning process and from now and on I definitely will go over all your courses in my student journey))) So happy to be here again!

This is the second course I have completed with Elmira Strange. I find her very listenable and easy to understand, and her knowledge base is extensive. The course is set out well, and the benefit gained was extensive.

Loving this course, the most in-depth psychology related course I have done from Dr Elmira. Also, I've realised that I have become part of some of the examples mentioned in Section 3.

Den grössten Dank für die Möglichkeit online Kurse zu absolvieren. Der Kurs ist gut präsentiert, aber ist wenig stimulierend im Vergleich zu anderen Kursen , die ich im gleichen Themenbereich gemacht habe

Fantastic course! Comprehensive, informative whilst being accessible. I wish this is one of the first courses I had taken before studying counselling, I now feel equipped to counsel others! Before taking this course I always thought that counselling and psychotherapy were synonymous, but now I know that although they overlap they are two separate things. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to become a psychotherapist or even to understand their own personal development. Best course yet.

Succinct and well-delivered course giving a strong overview and key points of the subject, and laying the foundation for further studies on the topics discussed. Enjoyable to watch and learn.

Tutor is not a trained psychodynamic psychotherapist. This is not advanced level, this is very basic level information.

Although I am taking many courses as a refresher and review, Elmira's courses are packed with excellent resources. She adds simple, clear instructions, which helps with staying focused whilst expanding knowledge base!

The course was really basic. The tutor just read out the slides rather than adding any value. This content is taught in Psychology 101.
