We designed a qualitative study to explore and identify outcomes of participants’ experience of a workshop aiming to raise awareness of vicarious trauma (VT) and introduce the practice of response art (RA) for self-care. The workshop was designed and implemented in the winter of 2018. It was facilitated by an art therapist. Seven psychotherapists w...
Background
The integration of a personal recovery-oriented practice in mental health services is an emerging principle in policy planning. Self-management support (SMS) is an intervention promoting recovery that aims at educating patients on the nature of their mental disorder, improving their strategies to manage their day-to-day symptoms, fosteri...
As research has shown a consistent link between the alliance and the therapeutic success, an alliance-focused supervision was designed to help novice therapists improve their relational and collaborative abilities. Fifteen young therapists participated in the alliance-focused supervision and 15 did not. Therapists’ and clients’ results at the Worki...
Psychotherapists working with newcomers, refugees and asylum seekers, who have survived trauma, indisputably face challenges. Though rewarding, their work is not without strain on their wellbeing and professional development: They may experience and be transformed by vicarious trauma (VT). Reflexivity may improve self-awareness and help mitigate VT...
L’adoption de la loi 21, qui encadre la pratique de la psychothérapie au Québec, avait comme objectif la protection du public. Bien que l’adoption de cette loi protège dans une certaine mesure la population contre l’utilisation abusive du titre de psychothérapeute, nous sommes témoins d’une certaine tendance, assez lourde d’ailleurs, d’uniformisati...
Based on a huge amount of research in interdisciplinary fields (attachment and developmental psychology, interpersonal biology, neurobiology of trauma, complex system theory, etc.) and our training in Object Relational Gestalt Therapy (Delisle, 1998), we propose a transactional neurodevelopmental model where the self is developing in interaction wi...
Résumé
En 2015, l’Organisation mondiale de la santé a reconnu la dépression comme étant la première cause d’incapacité dans le monde. Ce problème de santé publique a des répercussions potentielles sur le milieu du travail.
Objectif
Le but de cette étude était, entre autres, d’explorer les liens possibles entre les stresseurs professionnels et la p...
Objective: To review the literature and make suggestions for further investigation. Methodology: An extensive search of the literature has been undertaken using computer database search. Results: Even if findings are heterogenous, most studies suggest limited stress-related or affective-related reactions for the majority of respondents. Whereas fin...
Cet article présente les changements législatifs adoptés qui visent à encadrer la pratique de la psychothérapie au Québec. Ceux-ci ont un impact direct sur la pratique de la psychothérapie et sur la définition même de ce qu’est la psychothérapie. Les thérapeutes d’orientation gestaltiste pourront-ils continuer à exercer leur pratique en respectant...
"Abstract: Psychotherapy outcome has been of great interest for the last fifty years. Empirically supported psychotherapy and evidence-based treatment are influencing current thinking about variables that can and should be validated in psychotherapy. After first presenting a critical review of evidence-based treatment, I will try to evaluate where...
Until recently, only one study was published on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in individual therapy via videoconference (Germain, Marchand, Bouchard, Drouin, & Guay, 2009); however, it only assessed the posttreatment effect. This study presents the follow-up of Germain et al.'s (2009) study. The main goa...
La littérature scientifique explique que plusieurs variables peuvent influencer l’ajustement au deuil. La nature du décès – plus particulièrement un décès après suicide – a été identifiée comme une des variables pouvant contribuer à rendre le deuil plus complexe. La présente étude a pour but d’évaluer les réactions survenant plusieurs années après...
La question de savoir si le deuil apres suicide est plus difficile qu’une autre forme de deuil est encore debattue dans la litterature contemporaine. Cependant, outre la nature du deces, d’autres variables peuvent expliquer la difficulte du processus d’ajustement au deuil. Parmi ces variables, il y a la satisfaction de couple, la satisfaction de vi...
Telepsychotherapy is a cutting-edge intervention that shows great promise in the mental health care field. However, the possibility of developing a high-quality therapeutic alliance is often doubted when psychotherapy is provided remotely. This study assesses the development of a therapeutic alliance in individuals with posttraumatic stress disorde...
Telehealth, or health care via videoconferencing, constitutes a clinical option that makes it possible to treat patients remotely. A growing number of studies have demonstrated that telehealth is a feasible and effective method for diagnostic interviews and psychiatric consultations. However, few studies have assessed the effectiveness of psychothe...
Résumé
Cet article rapporte les résultats d’une recherche réalisée auprès de 141 professionnels en santé mentale pratiquant au Québec et ayant vécu le suicide d’un patient. Les professionnels ont réagi à cet événement différemment en fonction de leur sexe. Les femmes y ont répondu par un niveau de stress élevé au cours du premier mois, alors que le...
Several authors qualify the death by suicide of a patient as a critical event when it occurs in the professional sphere of mental health workers. In what proportion does the death by suicide of a patient occur in the professional realm? What are the personal and professional reactions of mental health workers following this event? This article pres...
It is interesting and important to note that the creators, and in a certain way, the fathers of the three great approaches of the 20th century, have now all disappeared, that is to say Freud, Rogers and Skinner. What has happened to their contributions? The current reflection and research relating to the bringing together and first integration in p...
This article presents the results of a study of 141 mental health professionals that have lost a patient by suicide in their practice in Quebec. The results indicate that even though the death of a patient by suicide represents a significant event when it occurs in the professional sphere of mental health workers, they adapt relatively well to this...
