Welcome

In today’s world it is necessary to learn to recognize, diagnose, plan treatment and interventions to address Personality Disorders. In particular, and due to their high prevalence, Borderline Personality Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

The love of transmitting the art of technique and being part of a community, in a world of psychotherapists that is lonely, uncertain and, at times, distressing, is a novel and revolutionary initiative. In this exercise, the therapist calmly immerses himself in the learning experience of transference-focused therapy. With this, he manages to manage his clinical practice from a contained and accompanied place, but at the same time, professional and structured.

Who is it aimed at?

Psychologists, psychiatrists, psychology and psychiatry students and professionals related to mental health who wish to enter into professional practice with complex patients.

Description of training

This is the Initial Transference Focused Therapy Course. It starts in April 2025 and lasts 10 months.

In these 10 months you will learn and deepen the theoretical elements of PPT, through a unique methodology. The hallmark of our institute is to combine academic tutorials of theoretical and bibliographical review, with expository classes of review and observation and analysis of microprocesses in real clinical cases.
