At the time of this recording, Dr. Hans Strupp was a practicing Psychodynamic therapist and Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Vanderbilt University. His book, Psychotherapy In a New Key: A Guide to Time-Limited Dynamic Psychotherapy, has been described as a “milestone in the ‘new wave’ of psychotherapy research.”

Dr. Strupp’s work is based on an interpersonal model. He believes it is useful to view a patient’s problem as disturbances in interpersonal relationships.  He says that, “Patients rigidly cling to the past, and they do so by ‘cyclical maladaptive patterns.'”

The therapist’s role, he says, is to identify these patterns in the patient’s life; to call them to the patient’s attention; to help the patient explore the ramifications of the pattern in the patient’s current life; and to provide a new relationship that can, at the very least, help to mitigate earlier damage.

In his interview with the client Richard, Dr. Strupp skillfully draws from the patient the scenarios that help to identify Richard’s maladaptive patterns.  (@psychologicaleducationalfi2136) (@PsychedelicsCom) (@PsychNetworker) (@UCLALibraryOfficial) (@UCLAFTVArchive) (@InsideEdition)
