  1. Time Limited Dynamic Psychotherapy

  2. General Introduction = A time sensitive approach for clients with chronic, pervasive dysfunctional ways of relating to others. • Theoretical roots of the approach. • Pioneers of TLDP and recommended readings. • An interpersonal approach.

  3. Strengths of the TLDP • Applicability to difficult patients. • Relevance for psychodynamically-trained clinicians. • An empirically tested model. • Avoids complex metatheoretical constructs

  4. Assumptions of TLDP • Maladaptive relationship patterns are learned in the past. • Such maladaptive patterns are maintained in the present. • These patterns are also re-enacted in therapy. • The primary tx focus on the chief problematic relationship pattern.

  5. Goals of TLDP • New experience. • New understanding.

  6. Cyclical Maladaptive Pattern • The idiosyncratic “vicious cycle” of maladaptive interactions that a particular patient gets into when he or she relates to others. • Steps in case formulation.
