| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE TREATMENT OF ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Weekly Consultaton Group Led by Mary Brady, Ph.D. and Robert Tyminski, D.M.H. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The treatment of adolescent and young adult patients is especially challenging, given the developmental upheavals of the period, which can often result in bodily based psychopathologies (e.g. eating disorders, cutting, substance abuse). Nevertheless, this period of emotional unrest can create opportunities for significant psychological growth, especially when an adolescent or young adult is in treatment. In this group we plan to study the key psychological events of adolescence through a variety of lenses. We will read a number of classic and contemporary thinkers such as Anne Alvarez, Antonino Ferro, Henri Rey, and D.W. Winnicott. We will spend time on several cornerstone psychoanalytic papers about adolescence, and we will then explore questions about therapeutic action, group interventions, clinical supervision, and interacting with parents. Throughout the year, we will alternate between theory and case presentations. Our clinical discussions will have a process orientation, as the group develops its own ways of thinking together. The group will meet: Days: Mondays from 12:00 to 1:15 p.m. Start Date: September 8, 2008 End Date: June 8, 2009 Location: 3159 Sacramento St. (between Baker and Lyon) San Francisco, CA Fee: $45/ meeting This course will be submitted for CE credit through SFCP, there will be an administrative charge paid to SFCP for CE credits. Requirements: Completion of graduate or medical degree. For questions about joining this consultation group, please contact: Dr. Brady at 776-3174 (mbrady66@earthlink.net), or Dr. Tyminski at 552-1747 (Robert.Tyminski@ucsf.edu) |
