Randall Paulsen, MD and Sally I. Bowie LICSW
Case Discussion Group
(February 29 - March 2, 2008)

with Randy Paulsen, MD and Sally Bowie, LICSW

In the midst of busy clinical practices, we don’t often get the chance to step outside the daily whirl and think in depth with colleagues about the nature of the work we do.

This case discussion group focused on individual psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic psychotherapy and couple therapy. Eight clinicians from Salt Lake City presented case material to each other over the 2-1/2 days of seminars. Cases were both of individual or couple therapy. With each case, participants deepened their understanding of the therapeutic relationship in each treatment.
