Transference Focused Psychotherapy

In this first video of THE NET TAPES, Dr. Elisabeth Kaiser discusses the history of Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) and what it means exactly. She also explains how NET works and how it can be applied to people with trauma.

In the first therapy session, Dr. Elisabeth Kaiser meets patient Willemijn, who has been referred to her because she is struggling with mental health issues. During this initial session, Elisabeth gets to know Willemijn through a questionnaire to gain insight into her background and current emotional state. Elisabeth compares this process to visiting a general practitioner to identify the origins of specific symptoms. This is to find out where her trauma(s) are coming from.

In this second session, Elisabeth starts by asking Willemijn how she feels after their first session to assess its impact on her. Following this, they begin to lay out Willemijn's lifeline. Symbols are used in the lifeline to describe situations, such as stones (unpleasant events), flowers (beautiful events), sticks (harm done to someone), and candles (loss of loved ones).

In the second session, Katy tells Pnin that they won't delve fully into the details of the traumas he has experienced just yet, and instead, they will first outline a complete lifeline of his entire life. Symbols are used in the lifeline to describe situations, such as stones (unpleasant events), flowers (beautiful events), sticks (harm done to someone), and candles (loss of loved ones).

In this third session, Elisabeth delves deeper with Willemijn into one chosen trauma, one stone from her lifeline. Elisabeth refers to this as a "mountain tour," where she is the tour guide and Willemijn leads her along the path towards the trauma. Through asking questions, they navigate the entire path towards the trauma. This process may bring about a lot of fear, but it signifies that Willemijn is on the right path.

In this third session, Katy goes through the moments that Pnin has indicated on his lifeline. This process is slow and detailed, with Katy fully guiding Pnin through it. Katy clearly explains to Pnin how she will approach this to achieve the best results for him.

In this fourth and final session, Elisabeth goes through the trauma once more with Willemijn to ensure she has understood everything correctly and to see if there are any missing points or adjustments needed. "Going through the movie one more time," as Elisabeth puts it.

In this fourth and final session, Katy first asks how Pnin is feeling after revisiting and going through his heavy "stone." After a brief evaluation, Katy suggests retelling his story from her perspective and whether the insights Pnin gained from the previous session resurface.

In this video, Juliette provides you with a brief introduction to Emotion-Focused Therapy for individuals (EFT-I), followed by an insightful overview of five client sessions that address specific key issues within EFT.

In this seventh session of the Trauma Tapes, Prof. Dr. Berthold Gersons zooms in on the emotion of grief and the first traumatic experience that forms the kink in Victoria's lifeline. Victoria came to her father in the Netherlands from Poland at a young age and was beaten with a belt while reading Dutch to him. -Dutch with English subtitles-

During this second session, Laurian and Lisanne go deeper into the traumatic memories and images. Central to these memories is a sense of of powerlessness. The SUD decreases gradually, and by the end of the session Lisanne is even able to say: "I can handle it".

In this 120th session, 3 years after the start of treatment, the themes of evaluation and farewell are central. Nel asks explicitly about negative comments, because it is integrative if this can be discussed within the relationship. Anne shows that she can reflect, sees the practitioner as a real person, an "other. Anne shows authentic guilt about the harm she has caused others, and talks about what she has learned and what her life looks like now.

The rule of thumb in DBT is that after +- 60% of the client's treatment you start preparing for the end of the therapy. There is no step-by-step plan for this, and the preparation involves more than arranging aftercare. Above all, it requires alertness and ‘reading between the lines’. For many clients, the approaching end of intensive immersion therapy evokes intense emotions. And if, like Anne, they have a developmental history that includes mobile relationships with sudden abandonment, then they have developed few skills to deal with that. You can see that Roland responds with care, validates and uses didactic strategies to teach Anne what goodbyes can entail. Meanwhile, radical acceptance and anticipation play a crucial role, and of course a watertight relapse prevention plan.

In this first session of the therapy you will see how a treatment is started in APT by making contact and looking together for concrete goals for the therapy.

In this 29th therapy session, Steven Meijer and the patient are working towards the conclusion of the therapy. They discuss the closure of the therapy, reducing the frequency of sessions, and the impending farewell between the patient and the therapist. They also address the patient's ability to independently continue the therapeutic plan after the conclusion of therapy.

In the first therapy session, Dr. Elisabeth Kaiser meets patient Willemijn, who has been referred to her because she is struggling with mental health issues. During this initial session, Elisabeth gets to know Willemijn through a questionnaire to gain insight into her background and current emotional state. Elisabeth compares this process to visiting a general practitioner to identify the origins of specific symptoms. This is to find out where her trauma(s) are coming from.
