Full textRationally selected Comprehensive System (CS; Exner, 1991, 1993, 2003) Rorschach variables and suitability for psychodynamic psychotherapy were investigated in four studies with different designs. The participants comprised three clinical samples (n = 52, 25, and 69) of patients applying for and/or selected for dynamic psychotherapy. With few exceptions the CS variables were the same in the studies, and in all the studies the Rorschach was independent of clinical ratings/assessments and/or selection of patients for treatment. The first study dealt with the relation between 17 rationally selected CS variables and suitability for psychotherapy as represented by ratings of Dynamic Capacity and Ego Strength and by selection of therapy applicants for psychotherapy. The second and third studies concerned CS score differences between groups of patients differing in suitability for dynamic psychotherapy. In the second study, differences for CS variables were predicted for three groups of dynamic psychotherapy patients with mixed diagnoses. In the third study, CS score differences between two groups, differing in suitability but similar in comprising personality disordered patients, were predicted and tested. In the fourth study, correlations were predicted between 18 pre-therapy CS variables and patient post-therapy satisfaction with therapy and also with therapist post-therapy ratings of their patients’ suitability for dynamic therapy.
For the four studies taken together, positive results were obtained for EA, FC, the D Score, Blends, Zf, F%, MQo, and AG. The results for m, SumT, WSUM6, X-%, S, and FrrF were negative, whereas the results for YFY, FD, COP, and PER were too weak to permit interpretation.
The main limitation of the research in this thesis is the lack of psychometric data concerning the clinical ratings whereas the strength is the ecological validity. The results are positive for some of the CS variables selected, mainly concerning control and cognition but also touching upon emotional integration and interpersonal forcefulness. The usefulness of the CS in psychotherapy assessment may be enhanced if only those CS variables that are found valid for the purpose are used and general personality descriptions are avoided.

Full textThe present thesis has two main aims. The first of these is to examine the reasons behind the author's finding during his training for the MA (Clinical Psychology) degree that there is a tendency in the Jungian literature for analytical psychology to be presented in a way which is distanced from the practical realities of the clinical situation. This examination is conducted through an appraisal of the Jungian literature and several clear, substantial reasons are revealed. The second aim has two parts to it. The first part is to attempt to justify using Jungian theory in the diagnostic and assessment context of clinical work. This is done by showing that two models, the individuation and medical models, both exist in analytical psychology but that the medical model has been under-emphasized. Following this, the psychodynamic formulation is situated in the context of clinical psychology in order to show its relationship to the diagnostic and assessment context of clinical work. The second part is to attempt to partly fill the gap in the Jungian literature through providing a format for the psychodynamic formulation in a Jungian framework and to show how the Jungian psychodynamic formulation informs management planning, with particular emphasis being placed on the assessment of patients for psychotherapy. This is done through providing provisional guidelines for the construction and use of the psychodynamic formulation in a Jungian framework in the context of a training programme such as the one the author has been in. Finally, a brief comment is included about a contrast which the author sees between the thesis of pluralism and his own views on the theoretical diversity that is employed in the present thesis.

Full textThe aim of this study is to develop a framework for the assessment of children for short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy, with a particular emphasis on the training of child therapists. For this purpose the literature on brief child psychotherapy is reviewed, and selection criteria mentioned in the literature are collated and summarized. These criteria are then applied to 5 cases seen by trainees or newly qualified clinicians in order to assess their usefulness in a training setting. Potential sources of difficulty for inexperienced clinicians in the assessment for and process of this specialized form of child psychotherapy are considered, and guidelines as to how this approach could be usefully employed in a training institute are suggested. On the basis of the literature and case discussions, a format for the assessment of children for brief psychotherapy is devised in order to assist the trainee.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This paper aims to provide an understanding of the psychodynamic implications of battering on the victims of this form of abuse. Three dominant approaches to trauma (one descriptive, one explanatory and one phenomenological) are briefly discussed. Available empirical data is then explored to ascertain whether the empirical research correspond to these dominant theories. The research indicates that the theories all highlight different aspects of battering and all have important implications for treatment.

Full textFor many years psychodynamically oriented research into homosexuality has been a topic for controversy. The "gay" community as well as many more sociologically oriented researchers see any investigation of the psychodynamics of this orientation as implying pathology and therefore contributing to stigmatization of homosexuals. More recently, however, psychoanalytic writers have questioned traditional assumptions and pointed to a need to look at the diversity of homosexual adaptations. Of interest in a more recent perspective is Socarides' (1979) classification, distinguishing between pre-oedipal and oedipal types of homosexuals. This paper argues that while generalization about "homosexuals" is impossible, a psychodynamic approach is useful in looking at the meaning and adaptive function of the homosexual orientation in each individual client and thus understand it in relation to personality organization and behaviour. A brief summary of psychoanalytic theory of male homosexuality is given with an emphasis on Socarides' classification. Two case studies are presented in an attempt to illustrate the usefulness of a psychodynamic approach and of the oedipal - pre-oedipal distinction. It is suggested that this distinction be seen more as a continuum of varying levels of ego-functioning.
Jacobs, H. Sean. "The psychodynamic psychotherapy of a male transvestite : a case study." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 1988. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/14321.
Full textThe present study provides a description of selected core psychodynamic issues pertinent to a male transvestite patient. Case material from an ongoing 11 month psychodynamically-oriented psychotherapy is used for illustrative purposes. The theoretical roles of the 'core complex', castration anxiety; aggression and a particular ego style are thematically outlined and illustrated by a discussion of the therapeutic process. An attempt is made to demonstrate an increased capacity for depression, increased object-relatedness and disidentification from a symbiotically related female introject as the aim and partial gain of the therapy. The transference, case management difficulties and the therapeutic process of what has occurred as well as what is likely to, are considered. The unexpected outcome, in that the patient has ceased to fetishistically cross-dress, given the short space of therapeutic time is discussed. It is concluded that this be viewed tentatively. Finally, some thoughts are raised as to the utility of the psychoanalytic approach as against the general psychiatric-diagnostic approach.

Full textThis dissertation explores the unique ways in which trauma affects adolescents as opposed to children and/or adults. This is an area of research that has not received sufficient attention. The various approaches in defining the concept of trauma are outlined. Developmental challenges and difficulties regarding the period of adolescence are discussed. Emphasis is placed on particular vulnerabilities evoked during adolescence and the importance of looking at a case in its developmental and environmental context. The impact of the environment, which forms the backdrop to the study, is addressed with reference to the South African context. It is observed how trauma and underlying conflicts augment stress already present in adolescence and complicate successful resolution of developmental tasks, such as autonomy in late adolescence. The research takes the form of a case study of an adolescent girl, who experienced a traumatic assault when she was already struggling with the demands of an unplanned pregnancy. The study illustrates the manifestations in late adolescence of the adverse effects of violence-induced trauma as well as the impact of secondary trauma on the family. The adolescent was seen in the context of exploratory family therapy, which was conducted weekly for 8 months. This offered an opportunity to gain insight into the ways she presented symptoms of trauma to other family members. In this respect a psychodynamic approach is shown as a useful way to explore the emotional features after trauma, such as loss, guilt and difficulties with trust, intimacy and safety. This approach highlights the subjective experience of unexpected violence-induced trauma that overwhelms the ego and produces a state of helplessness. Psychodynamic phenomena, such as regression, defenses and the inner world of the adolescent are discussed in relation to trauma and provides the context in which the meaning of trauma can be understood.

Full textAddressing the aftermath of trauma is among the most important contributions of psychology. As the numbers of individuals experiencing posttraumatic symptom sequelae continues to increase, it becomes imperative to research and explore a wider range of trauma treatment approaches in order to provide more individualized care. The goal of this study was to gain insights into the body-based approach of Somatic Experiencing®, a short-term naturalistic approach developed by Peter Levine (2007), through experiences of practitioners. The participants practice the Somatic Experiencing® in integration with psychodynamic psychotherapy. Based on a phenomenological case study approach, 4 licensed psychologists and Somatic Experiencing® practitioners were interviewed in order to learn more about how their integration of the 2 approaches impacts their clinical approach to working with trauma symptoms. Among the key themes that emerged from the analysis was the significance of integration in positive outcomes for individuals experiencing posttraumatic reactions by reducing or resolving their symptoms through a novel approach. The implications of this study for the field of clinical psychology are in further elucidation of the integration and its distinct contributions to treatment of trauma.

Full textThe purpose of the study is to evaluate how to set up school management of Salesian Educational System, gauged by evaluating institutional procedures and psychodynamic. It is, therefore, a descriptive field in qualitative and quantitative approach through a case study. Through a questionnaire and two sociometric tests, 105 employees participated in the study, being 16.19% and 69.5 faculty administrators. For the qualitative analysis, we used content analysis and for the reliability calculations and extraction of factors in addition to descriptive analysis, were analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Based on the analysis fatoral the items, you realize that the Salesian System has several positive aspects, however, still needs to develop strategies for improvement, especially in relation 1) to support the management of educational activities, 2) the transparency of management and institutional assessment and 3) to maintain the quality of education. Regarding institutional assessment, the institution may develop in relation to two factors that are concerning to i) meet the objectives of the school management and ii) support for teacher training and staff. In sociometric tests, we realized that the management group has 1) difficulties of dealing with negatives and 2) difficulties of dealing with the authority of the hierarchy. We consider the study by contributing to the improvement of the planning and actions of the group manager with the actions pedagogical and evaluative institutional as well as leverage in other institutions Basic Education reflection of the need to evaluate in order to make decisions.
O objetivo do estudo à avaliar como se configura a gestÃo escolar da Rede Salesiana de ensino, aferida mediante a avaliaÃÃo institucional e dos procedimentos psicodinÃmicos. Trata-se, por conseguinte, de uma pesquisa descritiva, bibliogrÃfica, documental, em campo, com abordagens quantitativa e qualitativa consubstanciando um estudo de caso. Por meio de um questionÃrio e de dois testes sociomÃtricos, participaram do estudo 105 funcionÃrios, sendo 16,19% gestores e 69,5 docentes. Para a anÃlise qualitativa, utilizou a anÃlise de conteÃdo e em relaÃÃo à anÃlise quantitativa, aos cÃlculos de confiabilidade e extraÃÃo de fatores, alÃm da anÃlise descritiva, os dados foram analisados atravÃs do SPSS versÃo 20.0; e, com base na anÃlise fatorial dos itens, percebe-se que a Rede Salesiana tem vÃrios aspectos positivos. Entretanto, necessita desenvolver estratÃgias de melhoria, principalmente, nos que se refere aos seguintes pontos: 1) ao apoio da gestÃo as aÃÃes educativas, 2) a transparÃncia da gestÃo e da avaliaÃÃo institucional e 3) a manter a qualidade da educaÃÃo. No que refere-se à avaliaÃÃo institucional, a instituiÃÃo pode se desenvolver em relaÃÃo aos dois fatores que estÃo relacionadas a i) atender aos objetivos da gestÃo escolar e ii) ao apoio a formaÃÃo docente e de funcionÃrios. Nos testes sociomÃtricos, percebe-se que o grupo gestor tem 1) dificuldades de lidar com pontos negativos e 2) dificuldades de lidar com a autoridade de hierarquia. Considera-se que o estudo contribui para o aprimoramento do planejamento e aÃÃes do grupo gestor junto Ãs aÃÃes pedagÃgicas e avaliativas institucionais, bem como potencializar em outras instituiÃÃes de EducaÃÃo BÃsica da Rede Salesiana de Ensino a reflexÃo da necessidade avaliar-se a fim de tomar decisÃes.
Blow, Tracy Jacqueline. "The constellation of the archetypal feminine : a psychic process essential to psychodynamic psychotherapy." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 1994. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13464.
Full textThe aim of this study is to explore and demonstrate the necessity for a psychodynamic psychotherapy which embodies and thus evokes the qualities of the Archetypal Feminine. C.G. Jung's concept of the coniunctio, or union of psychic opposites, forms the central theoretical premise on which the study is based. It is with the constellation of the coniunctio that psychic tranformation is achieved. The re-evocation and hence constellation of the archetypal feminine is viewed here as essential for the attainment of psychic integration, in view of the denigration and splitting off of psychic feminine aspects so evident in the histories of most cultures. The role of the feminine in personality development is described by way of an analysis of the archetype of the Feminine, and a documentation of early infant object relations as posited by such Analytical Psychotherapists as Michael Fordham and Mara Sidoli. These early infantile experiences can potentially be re-evoked in the therapeutic transference, particularly when a regressed psychic state is facilitated. This is well documented by analytical psychotherapists, and it is posited here that in order for this process to occur, a therapeutic approach which reveres and hence evokes the Feminine in all her manifestations is critical. This theoretical proposition is examined by way of an analysis of a series of dreams. The dreams were recorded by the dreamer while in a psychodynamically-oriented psychotherapy. The dreams occurred over a seven month period, and were presented in written form to the researcher with accompanying associations. Without gaining any further insights from the dreamer, the researcher analysed the dream series by utilising the associations provided, and amplifying archetypal material. In this way, the need for a therapeutic approach which facilitates the spontaneous emergence of feminine symbolism is demonstrated, and hence the gradual constellation of the coniunctio is shown. The implications for psychotherapy which emerge from this analysis involve the need for an approach to psychic healing which allows for the facilitation of the constellation of the archetypal feminine. Such an approach would provide a sense of secure therapeutic boundaries which would evoke the qualities of the containing vessel. Within this holding environment, a state of regression would occur in which the patient could re-experience infantile levels of relating, levels at which original damage occurred. With an awareness of the dynamics of such early relating, and the potential for their re-evocation,the therapist would facilitate healing and psychic transformation. Myth and fairytale would provide a rich source of reference for the interpretation of dream symbols, and for understanding the myth being lived out by each patient.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Community psychology in South Africa has been defined in antithesis to more traditional psychotherapies such as psychoanalysis. It has been necessary, in the formative stage of community psychology, to be clear about what it is not, in terms of establishing a progressive psychology that meets an urgent need. So too, psychoanalysis started out needing to be very clear about how it differed from previous practices, and what its aims were. Over the last hundred years psychoanalytic thought has, however, undergone tremendous development. Perhaps it could be said that its transmutation into a South African psychology is still underway. Community psychology has been critiqued for its lack of theory, and few extended analyses of community psychology interventions exist. By contrast, psychoanalysis offers detailed theoretical accounts and case studies. It is proposed that both paradigms could benefit from an exchange of ideas. There is a common misperception that community psychology focuses on external problems, while psychodynamic therapy focuses solely on the intrapsychic. While this is not wholly true, it could be said that children are conceptualised very differently by these two perspectives, and that this has had implications for treatment. Recently, however, several South African practitioners have begun to introduce psychodynamic thought into community interventions in enriching ways. They are beginning to conclude that community psychology has necessarily been unable to utilise a depth psychology approach, for a variety of legitimate reasons, but that this is the next step in meeting the huge challenges of community work. This study provides a discussion of the contributions of psychoanalysis to an understanding of child development, as well as an examination of the ways in which community psychology has conceptualised and worked with children. Empirical examples of the treatment of South African children will be followed by a case study in which psychodynamic thought was combined with a community-style intervention. The authors conclude that the link between internal and external worlds is a complex one, especially in work with children. The internal and external seem, in effect, to be indivisible, and any intervention hoping to be effective splits these two worlds to its own detriment.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Gemeenskapsielkunde in Suid-Afrika word dikwels gedefineer in teenstelling met meer tradisionele benaderings soos die psigoanalise. In die vormingsjare van gemeenskapsielkunde was dit noodsaaklik om dit helder te definieer. Hierdie noodsaak het ontstaan weens die ontwikkeling van 'n vooruitgaande sielkunde wat 'n dringende behoefte nakom. Op 'n soortgelyke manier moes psigoanalise in die onstaansjare ook presies wees oor hoe dit verskil van vorige benaderings en oor sy doelwitte. Oor die afgelope honderd jaar het psigoanalitiese denke egter geweldig ontwikkel. Daar sou beweer kon word dat die posisie in 'n Suid-Afrikaanse sielkunde nog steeds onderweg is. Gemeenskapsielkunde is al gekritiseer oor sy gebrek aan teorie en daar bestaan min uitgebreide teoretiese verslae oor gemeenskapsintervensies. In teenstelling hiermee bied psigoanalise breedvoerige berigte en gevallestudies aan. Dit word voorgestel dat beide benaderings sou kon baat vind by die gemeenskaplike toepassing van idees. Daar bestaan 'n algemene wanopvatting dat gemeenskapsielkunde op eksterne probleme fokus, terwyl psigodinamiese terapie uitsluitend op die interne ingesteld is. Terwyl dit nie heeltemal waar is nie, sou daar ook aangevoer kon word dat kinders baie verskillend gekonsepsualiseer word binne hierdie twee perspektiewe. Dit hou implikasies vir behandeling in. Onlangs het verskeie Suid- Afrikaanse praktisyne egter psigodinamiese denke verrykend begin aanwend in gemeenskapsintervensies. Daar is tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat gemeenskapswerk in die verlede noodgedwonge nie 'n psigodinamiese benadering kon benut nie weens 'n verskeidenheid van voor-die-hand-liggende redes. Die enorme uitdagings van gemeenskapswerk word in die vooruitsig gestel. Hierdie artikel verskaf 'n bespreking van psigoanalise se bydrae tot 'n begrip van kinderontwikkeling, asook 'n ondersoek na die wyse waarop gemeenskapsielkunde oor kinders dink en met hulle werk. Voorbeelde van die behandeling van Suid-Afrikaanse kinders word gevolg deur 'n gevallestudie, waarin psigodinamiese denke gebruik word in 'n gemeenskapsintervensie. Daar word aangevoer dat die skakeling tussen interne en eksterne wêrelde 'n komplekse een is veral in werk met kinders. Die interne en die eksterne blyk om in effek onskeibaar te wees en enige intervensie wat hoop om effektief te wees, verdeel hierdie twee wêrelde tot sy nadeel.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study reviews the literature regarding psychodynamic therapy with low-income women. Low-income women are at psychological risk for developing emotional distress as a result of their deprived living circumstances. They have, however, received little attention from psychological research and practice. This literature review explores what psychological interventions are available for low-income women. It is found that psychodynamic therapy is largely unavailable to low-income women for a variety of reasons, which range from classism, sexism and ignorance to the cogent feminist and cross cultural critiques. It is argued that psychodynamic therapy should be more available to low-income women as it provides a sophisticated understanding of how oppressive social ideologies are internalized in the unconscious, thus facilitating, through therapy, a process of deconstruction and political subversion. Suggestions are also offered as to how to make psychodynamic therapy more accessible to low-income women.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie bied 'n oorsig van die beskikbare literatuur aangaande psigodinamiese terapie vir laer inkomste vrouens. Die groep is tot 'n meerdere mate blootgestel aan die ontwikkeling van emosionele stress trauma weens hul ontneemde lewensomstandighede. Laer inkomste vrouens het tot hede min aandag geniet met betrekking tot psigologiese navorsing en praktyk. Hierdie literatuur oorsig fokus op gepaste psigologiese ingryping wat beskikbaar is vir die spesifieke groep. Die ontoeganklikheid van psigodinamiese terapie beskikbaar, vir laer inkomste vrouens, kan toegeskryf word aan 'n verskeidenheid faktore: die strek van klassisme, seksisme en onkunde tot oortuigende feministiese en kruis kulturele beoordeling en debat. Hierdie verhandeling stel voor dat psigodinamiese terapie meer beskikbar moet wees tot laer inkomste vrouens, want dit stel 'n gesofisikeerde begrip, ten doel van hoe onderdrukkende sosiale ideologie geinternaliseer word in die onderbewussyn en die teenwerking daarvan. Die geskrif beredeneer hoe terapie kan fasiliteer in die proses van de-konstruksie en politieke subversie. Dit word ook voorgestel hoe om psigodinamiese terapie toeganklik to maak vir laer inkomste vrouens.
