2025 Psychotherapy Workshops
27 MaRCH 2025, THURSDAY (5.30pm - 7.30pm SGT)
An evening with Dr Marc Joffe, Clinical Psychologist & Psychodynamic Therapist
Healing the wounds within: A Psychodynamic approach to treating complex-PTSD through Attachment Theory
Synopsis
This online workshop explores the treatment of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) through the integrative lens of psychodynamic therapy and attachment theory. Grounded in the understanding that early attachment ruptures often lay the foundation for chronic relational and emotional challenges, the workshop delves into how developmental trauma impacts an individual’s capacity for emotional regulation, self-concept, and relationships.
The seminar will focus on working with chronic C-PTSD from a psychodynamic perspective and the core themes will include, but won’t be limited to the following:
the duration of the treatment protocol
the patient’s experience of the treatment
understanding the CCPTSD patient’s ‘frustrating’ communications
broadband narrow countertransference phenomena in this population
useful example interpretations
coping with so-called patient resistance
helpful elements in treatment
