Fokusbezogene psychodynamische Psychotherapie

The OPD-based diagnostics allows to formulate the psychodynamically significant aspects of the unconscious conflict, of the structural limitations and of the dysfunctional relational dispositions. Considering the relative weight of the conflict- and the structural dynamics we are able to differentiate three types of disturbances: the conflict type, the structural type and the miscellaneous type. For these three types of disturbances the therapeutic consequences for setting and therapeutic attitude, for the hierarchy of the foci, and the working through of dysfunctional relational dispositions and at last for the conflict- vs. structure-related interventions are discussed. The Heidelberger Umstrukturierungsskala enables us to the focus-related documentation and evaluation of the progress and the result of the therapy.
