"In this training video, Milton Viederman, MD, demonstrates a psychoanalytic approach to working with grief. Pat is the primary caregiver for her dying husband and is experiencing the grief and fear around his impending death. Forming an interpretation of Pat's core conflict and elaborating this theme throughout four sessions, Viederman helps Pat explore the early life experiences that give meaning to her current emotional responses. You will understand the specific techniques used in Viederman's approach to brief psychodynamic treatment; identify the basic principles of this approach to working with people who are dealing with the sickness and death of a loved one; and learn how to conduct an initial interview with someone dealing with death, dying, and grief. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions."
