Workshop 10

Presenter: Wanda Jewell, MSW, PhD, LCSW

Presented by the San Fernando Valley Chapter of CSCSW and hosted by Dr. Tanya Moradians, Dr. Wanda Jewell continues the teachings of the 10 workshop series with a session (or two) on Case Review. This workshop will use 2-3 cases chosen from those submitted by participants and will apply the theory and practice of psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Dr. Jewell, in partnership with our panel members, will choose from the cases submitted and discuss them from an Attachment perspective and the psychodynamic material covered in the previous 10 workshops. Discussion will include ego defenses, unconscious motivation, transference/ countertransference, and family of origin issues, as these issues arise in the case material.

We invite participants and panel members to send cases using the form linked below.  When submitting, please keep client confidentiality a priority.

Ideally, cases chosen would be clients/patients with whom you are currently working and you think would benefit from a discussion of the case thru the lens of Attachment theory and psychodynamic psychotherapy. Cases might include issues of addiction, depression, anxiety, difficulty in forming and maintaining relationships, etc.

Our format for the morning will be a review of each case with comments from the panel. After a 10 minute break we will open the discussion to participants for comments and questions about the case discussions.

The workshop will begin with a discussion of the importance of confidentiality in clinical work and issues caused by unintentional breaches. Great care must always be taken in consideration of protecting client confidentiality.

Please note that the previous workshops were recorded and can be viewed free of charge to CSCSW members. This particular workshop will not be recorded due to the potential issues of confidentiality in discussing cases.

The Art of Psychotherapy series has been organized by Dr. Tanya Moradians, CSCSW Coordinator of the San Fernando Valley District and Dr. Wanda Jewell,  Professor at the School of Social Work and private practice psychotherapist.  This is the first session in a series to discuss the process of termination as we finish this series. This has been a wonderful partnership with Dr. Jewell and a valuable 'find' for CSCSW.  During this collaboration each of us engaged in the creative process as we brainstormed ideas before each workshop and Dr. Jewell researched further ideas that created the informative, thought provoking and successful presentations.   We were both very fortunate to have such willing and bright people on the Panel that also participated in this series.
