Information about Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy

Alan Eppel says:

… in my Google searches I stumbled upon a DVD produced by Diana Fosha, a psychologist working in New York City.

I ordered this DVD. My first impression was to dismiss it as it seemed so radically different from anything I had seen before. However the more I watched, the more I was stunned by the complexity and at the same time simplicity of her approach and its dramatic impact.

Fosha had turned Davanloo’s method “on its head” while maintaining the fundamental principles of dynamic psychotherapy. She described her therapy as “accelerated”, and its effects were evident right from the opening gambits.

I had to get more of this approach and subsequently attended AEDP courses and supervision with Eileen Russell in New York.

Diana Fosha’s approach dramatically changed my own approach to therapy. The emphasis was now on affect much more than intellectual insight.
